Past event

The figure of the maestro is central to the work of Bernd and Hilla Becher, as the artists of the Düsseldorf School show. With Sguardi maestri, Fondazione MAST offers tours of the exhibition led by professionals from fields deeply influenced by the Bechers’ teaching, who read it from fresh perspectives.
Visitors build a direct relationship both with the “maestro” accompanying them through the exhibition and with the works, revealed in their most specific and unexpected aspects. The tour ends with a drink at MAST.Caffetteria.
On Wednesday 24 June, at 4.30 pm, the tour was led by Armin Linke, before his Formare lo sguardo talk in the Auditorium.
Born in Milan in 1966, he is an artist who works with photography and film, devising processes that challenge the medium, its technologies and its role within broader socio-political structures.
5 pmProfessionals shaped by the Bechers’ teaching guide visitors through the exhibition from new perspectives. Massimo Bartolini lives and works in Cecina, teaches at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Bologna and showed Due qui / To Hear at the Italian Pavilion of the 2024 Venice Biennale.
