Valencian Institute of Modern Art exhibits Claudio Zirotti: Without Time

VALENCIA.- The IVAM’s exhibition comprising twenty one pieces by the Italian artist Claudio Zirotti in an intelligent reflection about the meaning of time, remembrance and memory. Claudio Zirotti’s pieces portray the instant. That subtle instant when the human being turns his eyes on his life and – like Camus’s Sisyphus –”returning to his rock, contemplates that series of disconnected acts that become his destiny, created by himself, united under the gaze of his memory and soon sealed with his death”. So speaking about the instant is tantamount to speaking about the infinite, for the instant is the continuous present and the “Time of the World” withdraws in a simple instant.
