Diego Marcon
La Gola
The exhibition poster shows one of the protagonists of Diego Marcon’s film La Gola (2024). Structured by a series of letters, Gianni describes the successive courses of an exquisite banquet, while Rossana gives an account of the progressive decline of her mother’s health. The two characters are played by hyperrealistic mannequins, that appear motionless with their eyes modelled and animated in CGI. Diego Marcon’s work draws upon different cinematic vocabularies from diverse genres including musicals, melodrama, horror and slapstick comedy. His uncanny, singular imagery employs various technical devices such as robotics, prosthetics and CGI. Words, sounds and gestures contribute to the troubling uncertainty or ambiguity that underpins Marcon’s work.
The exhibition poster is available in a regular version and as a limited edition signed by Diego Marcon (20 copies).
