Sala alla Porta Sant’Agostino – Bergamo (Bergamo)

A video-installation by English artist Hannah Collins – internationally known photographer and filmmaker – will be presented at Porta S. Agostino. Interested in the archaeology of urban space, with her works Collins searches for traces of the past that merge with the present. At her first solo exhibition in Italy, the artist will present the film Solitude and Company (2008): against the decadent backdrop of the La Tossée factory, whose interior spaces are reflected in the slow light variations of the whole day, the action is built by voices of some Algerian inhabitants of Roubaix recounting their dreams.
