Contrasting boldness with brashness, embodying the state of violence with impeccable manner is what the São Paulo and Berlin based artist Clara Ianni is known for. Represented by Galeria Vermelho and as a member and contributor of Krytyka Polityczna, works of Ianni put accent on politics and its ideological implications. Here we’ve compiled some facts that showcase Ianni’s unique sense of personality and artistic perception.
1. Whilst creating her work Still Life or Study for Vanishing Point, local police officers in Belo Horizonte were called to shoot at those sheets of metals she hanged on the wall, contributing to what she said to be “archeology of ammunition”.
2. At her working studio you’ll find a MacBook Air and nothing else.
3. As a revolutionary Brazilian art-world figure, Ianni was consecutively the nominee of PIPA prize from 2014 to this year.
4. She has an obsession towards unearthing forgotten historical memories!
5. She has worked in the Louvre.
