‘Knaves of Radiance (Bolan Edition)’ is a new chapter of the ongoing Knaves of Radiance saga by performance artist Luca Bosani, specifically designed in response to the Studio Weave pavilion in Nine Elms.
About
Luca Bosani’s interest lies in cutting through the conventions of communication, causing stereotypes to collapse and visual lexicons to be reconfigured. Codes of masculinity are hacked, triggering unexpected configurations, proto-choreographies and hybridization. Performance, fashion design and painting meet in the search for unexplored artistic territories; customised garments become canvases in motion while solitary bachelors pose as jacks of an unplayable deck of cards.
Luca Bosani is currently artist in residence and Fine Art tutor at Kensington and Chelsea College, London. In 2017 he obtained a MA in Performance (Contemporary Art Practice) at the Royal College Art, London. He recently presented his first UK solo show ‘Performing the unknown’ at Kensington and Chelsea College gallery, London (2018). Selected shows include: ‘Interstitial Practices: Extruding Performance‘ as curator and artist, Royal College of Art, London (2017); ‘Lost Senses’ curated by Linda Rocco & Isabel Fernandez, Guest Projects, London (2017),‘Revolve Performance Art festival (2016 & 2017)’ – Uppsala Konstmuseum, Uppsala (Sweden); ‘Liberté d’action’, L’Amour, Paris (FR) (2016); ‘Performance Art Meeting’ with Galeria Labirynth, Lublin (Poland) (2016);‘A Particular Act – Being alone together’ curated by Raphaella Davies & Benjamin Nuttall, Crown Building Studios, Liverpool (UK) (2016); Solo Performance ‘ONLY for YOU’ curated by OUT44, Fabbrica del Vapore, Milan (IT) (2015); Solo show ‘The difference between standing, sitting and laying’ x ‘Iridescent in VOID’ curated by Lucrezia Galeotti, Rocket, Milan (IT) (2015).
