In the summer of 2012 Liliana Moro exhibited her solo exhibition Moi in Como, Italy. Moi is a site-specific sound piece, conceived for the occasion, in which the words of the artist evoke the presence of the movement of two bodies, proceeding according to a rhythmic score of pauses and accelerations. What appears to be the description of an action, produces in its listeners an awkward sensation of dilation and contraction of perception, of the comprehension of the spoken words, and of time in general. In Moi the visitor passes from being an observer to being observed, once he entered the sound circle. Liliana Moro's voice speaks about a performative action. But once outside the circle - where sound is no longer comprehensible ? the spectator cannot avoid questioning whether the text is not actually talking about her or himself. The works of Liliana Moro give the impression that only what is strictly necessary is present. Sounds, words, sculptures, objects and performance create a world that ?stages? a reality simultaneously raw and poetic. These are territories of an individual experience (that of the artist, but primarily that of the viewer) that asks to be taken beyond what is visible. Through clearly visible attributes, yet less logical and unequivocal most often attached to a process of association, her installations speak to the spectator and, paradoxically, in a rather direct manner. The position of the spectator constantly teeters from a witness to voyeur, and then as a participant and vice-versa. The mechanisms of perception and of reception are inherent of her work. Lilliana Moro: Moi combines illustrations, interviews and short essays to record Moi and other works of this conceptual artist. Moi follows on from Hans Haacke: Once Upon a Time, Susan Hiller: The Dream and the Word and Walid Raad: Walkthrough. The books continue the discussions around collaborative works, the nature of contemporary art and the working methods of the artists. SELLING POINTS: ? Liliana Moro: Moi continues the series documenting the workshops held in the summer school project at Fondazione Antonio Ratti in Italy. This is the fourth title in the series and focuses on Italian conceptual artist Liliana Moro. ? Moro's conceptual work concentrates on the position of the spectator crossing between witness to voyeur, then participant and vice-versa. ? The book focuses on the exhibition Moi, a site-specific sound piece, where the words of the artist evict presence and movement of two bodies, and the visitor passes from observer to observed, once he enters the sound circle. ? In the same format as the previous Foundazione Ratti titles, Moi includes short texts, diagrams and workshop notes to show the working methods of this interesting conceptual artist.
