Krištof Kintera
No One Has Nothing

May 6 > June 14, 2019

z2o Sara Zanin Gallery is pleased to present Krištof Kintera’s first solo show at the gallery, No One Has Nothing, after his participation in the group shows Hidden Beauty (2018), curated by Marina Dacci, and You Got To Burn To Shine, curated by Teresa Macrì at La Galleria Nazionale, and his attendance to this year ’s edition of La Triennale di Milano.

Krištof Kintera’s research focuses on the theme of “post-natural” in order to create a complex social and political interrogation about our time, hoping to stimulate awareness on topical and contemporary issues. For Kintera, in the so-called “copper age”, based on the transmission of energy and information, Nature is compared to an huge nervous system and it is recreated through the use of waste materials that constitute our para-natural everyday habitat.

Kintera patiently investigates every possibility of sculpture and installation through the use of a wide range of materials and elements. Starting from different and various approaches to the medium and switching from one material to another, from one theme to another, from large scale long term complex projects to small scale easy gestures, he reinvents a new lexicon made by utopic and dystopic images referred to a collapsed universe. With sharp and ironical outlook, Kintera is unveiling common traumas and checking our attitudes to them.
