A Milano puoi suonare gratis con la tua band in uno studio di registrazione aperto al pubblico all’HangarBicocca
Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan has transformed its exhibition space into a functional recording studio as part of a major retrospective for artist Rirkrit Tiravanija. Titled "A Retrospective: The House That Jack Built," the show invites local musical acts to book time slots to perform and record their music live within the gallery. This interactive installation allows the creative process to unfold in front of museum visitors, blurring the lines between a static art display and a community hub.
The initiative exemplifies Tiravanija’s long-standing commitment to relational aesthetics, where art is defined by human interaction rather than physical objects. By offering free resources like recording equipment and workshops in ceramics, dance, and poetry, the museum shifts from a site of passive consumption to a platform for civic participation. This approach challenges traditional institutional boundaries, turning the gallery into a living, evolving social space that belongs to the local community.
