Publication description:   Mike Kelley and the Cinema is the fifth HB Public event dedicated to the films that have influenced the works of HangarBicocca artists. A passionate movie fan since he was a child, and especially during his college years, Mike Kelley also created video projects himself. He always had a special relationship with cinema, particularly with the cinema genres of popular culture, such as horror, science fiction and underground films. Both in the titles he chose for his works and in the references dotted around in his considerable number of writings, we can see the influence that cinema had on Mike Kelley’s art. In collaboration with Fondazione Cineteca Italiana.

Exhibition title:   1985 Whitney Biennial

Exhibition venue:   Whitney Museum of American Art

Publication description:   The 1985 Biennial Exhibition continues to use the format adopted for the 1977 Biennial Exhibition: multiple examples of work made during the previous two years by artists chosen collectively by the curators as the most representative of the best American art. This invitational exhibition is not restricted by age or reputation. Younger artists have been chosen for their introduction of new forms and ideas; more established artists because their work has shown consistent growth and has advanced substantially during the last two years. The objective of the exhibition is twofold: to make qualitative judgments at a moment of multiple critical standards, and to assemble as cohesive an overview of current art activity as possible. Ideological and stylistic variety characterizes recent art and no single aesthetic dominates this exhibition.
