Orith Youdovich. How Should I Live. Visual Dialogues with Michelangelo Antonioni's Cinematographic Art
Exhibitions, Italy, Forli, San Mauro Pascoli, 03 October 2014
A personal show curated by Punto di Svista / Maurizio G. De Bonis. In her personal investigation into the visual language trough the cinema of Michelangelo Antonioni, Orith Youdovich does not aim at a mere representation of the landmarks of the master director (the Po river, the flat landscape of Padan Plain, the desert, the city, the sea), or at a predictable and meaningless tribute. Her research is motivated by an interior need that forces her to abandon herself to the flux of her thoughts and to plunge deep down in the substance of human existence, which leads the observer beyond the visible. Her images produce a strong feeling of alienation, devoid of indications and meanings, and do not respond to any paraliterary or pseudo-cinematographic narrative. Every shot appears to be based on an intrinsic dichotomy strength/fragility that forces the observer to face up to its inner universe without the aid of captions.
