Marinella Senatore Italy, b. 1977

Marinella Senatore is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is characterized by a strong participatory dimension and a constant dialogue between history, popular culture and social structures. After the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples (1994-1997), the Conservatory of Music (1997) and the National school of Cinema in Rome (1999-2001), she is dedicated to visual art, where she uses different media: action, video, photography, installation, sculpture, painting, drawing, collage. Marinella Senatore's art is pure energy; an energy that flows from the short circuit between different elements she relates in the same scene, real and virtual, indeed, the artist takes on the role of activator of a mechanism (the work of art) whose purpose is to produce a transforming force from the encounter of the elements included in it; a force that then propagates in the surrounding reality until it reaches the viewer.

Her work has been exhibited widely including biennials and museums as Manifesta 12; Centre Pompidou; Museo MAXXI; Queens Museum; Kunsthaus Zürich; Castello di Rivoli; Kunst Halle Sankt Gallen; Palais de Tokyo; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; High Line Art, New York; BOZAR, Brussels; Serpentine Gallery, London; CCA Tel Aviv; Musée d'art contemporain de Montréal; BAK, Utrecht; Centro de Arte Dos de Mayo, Madrid; Palazzo Grassi, Venice; Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam; Moderna Museet, Stockholm; Liverpool Biennial; Athens Biennale; Bienal de La Habana; Bienal de Cuenca; 54a Biennale di Venezia.
