salons
Artists and curators at ISCP are invited to present their recent work to the public in the semi-monthly public Salons. Participants present film screenings, performances, small exhibitions, formal lectures, and a number of hybrid formats. Besides from introducing the residents’ practice to the audience, these presentations are important social events encouraging conversation and exchange of ideas among the ISCP residents and the public.

VALERIO ROCCO ORLANDO: 'A Lover's Discourse'

During a six months residency at ISCP, I’m creating a new series of works about Love. My purpose is to explore all the changes and correspondences experienced inside the identity of a couple. Starting from the French philosopher Jean-Luc Nancy’s theories about being-in-common and the dynamics of self-reflection and sharing coexisting in a web of relations, my intent is to demonstrate the fundamental importance of reciprocity and interchange with “the other” in order to evolve and build up one own identity and self awareness.

Valerio Rocco Orlando works across a range of media including film, video, and photography. His installations show articulated compositions made of cinematic and emotional portraits. Inspired by the evolution of identitary dynamics in contemporary society, Orlando's research explores the relations between individual and collective memory, as well as the changes induced by social relationships in the process of identity formation.

Ringholt’s interdisciplinary art practice grapples with our social environment, exploring ideas of perception and states of consciousness. With uncomfortable honesty, he highlights awkward interpersonal interactions, revealing complex networks between individuals and communities. At the recent Sydney Biennale, Ringholt facilitated 50 Anger Workshops with 400 people participating. In 2010 Ringholt will participate in the Adelaide Biennial and present a solo show ‘Vitrines’ at Anna Schwartz Gallery, Sydney. His work has been profiled in Artforum and Frieze. Ringholt is represented by Anna Schwartz Gallery.

GORAN ŠKOFIĆ

Goran Škofić works almost exclusively in the media of video and photography. He focuses on what he calls "abstractions": society, the individual, interaction and coexistence. In his work, Škofić uses his body as an instrument of expression. In his video installation Corpus for instance, he treats his own body. Each of the installation's videos shows a multiplied figure of the author who rhythmically performs just one action (workout in the gym, running, applauding in a concert hall,…). Škofić thus deconstructs the body into a naked “corpus”, liberating it from humanization and bodily weaknesses like fatigue or mistake. His character, which has no foothold either in the original or in truth, acts with the rhythm of incessantly repeating movements.
SAMUIL STOYANOV

Thinking while looking, or looking while thinking: Samuil Stoyanov is interested in "thinking vision”. Lately this theme has appeared in his works, but it has nothing to do with visual experiments or optical effects; rather it is to be fully associated with the conceptualization of the act of looking.
Samuil was born in 1975 in  Dobrich, Bulgaria. In 2001 he graduated from the National Art Academy with an MA in Ceramics. From 2001 to 2009 he realized eight solo exhibitions, and he is the winner of several art awards, including the 2009 BAZA Award. He works in all the existing media and ironically treats various contemporary subjects. Stoyanov will participate with four of his works in Qui vive?, the second Moscow International Biennale for Young Art (July, 2010). For this Salon at ISCP he will show his Projects for the World Government Building. He will also make some brand new works.

exposure
The numerous exhibitions and projects in which ISCP participants are included are often a byproduct of ISCP's programming approach that includes forging contacts between artists, curators, gallerists, museum professionals, and critics. While in residence, participating artists and curators mayhave exhibitions in New York and elsewhere.
