The exhibition in C-salen is her first major exhibition in Northern Europe. It presents new works from 2010 produced in a variety of techniques, such as performative and sculptural objects, film and photographs, texts, and ready-mades. Together, the individual works form a unified whole\u2014an installation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pica explores our ability to express ourselves, as well as the performative nature of thought and language. In her works, she investigates the distance to the person at whom signs (speech, gestures, singing) are directed. Examples include works based on: a deaf monologue; singing in the shower or on stage in front of a large audience; flag signals used to send messages over long distances; someone waiting for someone else to say something. All the works \u201cspeak about\u201d speaking (or making contact) with another person, who may be nearby or far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amalia Pica\u2019s work is often driven by a longing for active civic participation. In earlier works such as On Education (2008) and Speaker\u2019s Corner (2008), Pica strives to create condensed moments of cultural intimacy, or moments in which her (or others\u2019) artistic practice attempts to intervene practically in public life. She works conceptually, with an inventive and playful sharpness in her titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A catalogue will be produced in conjunction with the exhibition, including both earlier and more recent works, an essay by the German curator Jochen Volz, and an interview by the English writer and editor Francesca Gavin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Amalia Pica was born in 1978 in Neuqu\u00e9n, Argentina. She lives and works in London, England. She has participated in group exhibitions at, among others, the Hayward Gallery, London (2010), Kunsthalle Basel (2008), and the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (2007).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-style-information-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><br\/><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_05.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44052\" srcset=\"https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_05.jpg 683w, https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_05-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Helene Toresdotter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-flow wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-style-right-image-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-style-left-image-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_08.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-44048\" srcset=\"https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_08.jpg 683w, https:\/\/malmokonsthall.se\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/2010_1_0490_C_DO_08-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo: Helene Toresdotter<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amalia Pica \u2013 babble, blabber, chatter, gibber, jabber, patter, prattle, rattle, yammer, yada yada yada 30.9\u201331.10 2010 Amalia Pica (b. 1978) works with sculpture, photography,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"menu_order":10,"template":"","format":"standard","class_list":["post-44058","utstallningar","type-utstallningar","status-publish","format-standard","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Amalia Pica<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Amalia Pica I C-salen p\u00e5 Malm\u00f6 Konsthall 2010.
