Giancarlo Lamonaca: RAUSCHEN
In a world where digital images have become the dominant form of memory, the exhibition Rauschen (Noise) asks what is being lost. These are images in a state of transition, in which reminiscences of a digital archive reveal a different form of imagery. Their disturbances generate resistance—against the claim to completeness and against the smoothness of perfected image worlds. A digital palimpsest in which memory is not preserved or discarded, but transformed.
Mozzarellalight: TO FADE IN
Water, a floating matter and a moving organism, moves to the center of perception. It is no longer just a simple element, but a living body that changes over time and produces unstable and silent microsystems within itself. Every moment creates a new image, like a photograph that eludes capture. An apparition that cannot be captured, but only briefly reveals itself—only to disappear again immediately. The installation will be visible mainly in the dark hours of the day, as in a photographic process in which the image slowly appears on the film.

Villanders/Villandro, Brixen/Bressanone and environs
The Archeopark Villanders is a fascinating archaeological site located at Plunacker, where remains from the Stone Age, Copper Age, Bronze Age, and Roman period have been discovered. Particularly impressive are the prehistoric settlement traces and burial sites, which show that people lived here over 7,000 years ago. The earliest settlement traces are illustrated through the reconstruction of typical buildings and their furnishings from each respective era. The new structures represent a Mesolithic dwelling, a Neolithic hut, and a Rhaetian house.
The exhibition sheds light on the Peasants' War and its prehistory using archival documents from around 1500, focussing on the social, political and economic aspects of life before and during the peasant uprisings. Through the presentation of archival documents from the Diocesan Archives, works of art and everyday objects, perspectives on the Peasants' War that have been little illuminated to date are shown in order to visualise the multi-layered nature of the historical events and their complex causes.
The exhibition builds a bridge between past and present and encourages reflection on the continuity of social upheaval.
