EN Paintings and sculptures, but also books, poems and everyday items. Etel Adnan & #simonefattal: Working Together, curated by Vincenzo de Bellis, is the first Italian double debut for the two work and life partners active from the Seventies. From 29 April to 6 November 2022, the intimate and domestic work of the two artists will find a home in the library of the Fondazione Antonio Dalle Nogare in #bolzano, which will turn into an exhibition space for the first time on the occasion.

Etel Adnan (Beirut, 1925 – Paris, 2021) and Simone Fattal (Damascus, 1942) met in Beirut in the Seventies. They have since then lived together between Paris, Beirut and North California, working and experimenting across media. Before turning to the visual arts, the duo devoted themselves to literature. Adnan was a poet and a painter while Fattal is a sculptor and founder of Post-Apollo Press, a publishing house specialising in history, politics, social science and gender studies. The strength of the two artists lies in the multidisciplinary nature of their oeuvre.

Etel Adnan & #simonefattal: Working Together represents a unique endeavour for two main reasons. First, it brings together the work of the two artists after Etel Adnan's recent departure. Second, in a space devoted to the visual arts, it focuses on the role that literature played in the career of both artists and on the influence that this had on their visual practice, individually and as a couple.
