BIOGRAPHY
Giovanni
Bai (Milano, Italia, 1952). Sociologist and artist, publisher, performer and
independent curator, Bai concentrates on the issues of communication and
functioning of media. He has always seen the work of an artist as a moment of reflection
on art and the problems of society, progressively shifting his attention to the
metropolis and to museums as an institution, experimenting the possible usage
of electronic images.
In 1990 he founded
Museo Teo, “a museum without a location and without works of art”, an atypical
institution for the diffusion of contemporary art, seen as a continuously
changing collective work of art, and since 1991
has published Museo Teo Artfanzine, a creative and alternative magazine (giving
free rein to the graphic
designers and hence always featuring a different format and graphic layout).
He has
exhibited his works in the main Italian cities as well as in Paris, London,
Berlin, Tokyo, Shanghai and San
Francisco.
He has
worked with newspapers and magazines in Italy, France and Japan and has
written the books: Manuale per il giovane artista (1996),
Immagini della società (2005), Leggere la società
(2012). He teaches Science of Communication at ITSOS Albe Steiner Multimedia Communication
Institute, Milan.
His most
recent video works are dedicated to the theme of the “metropolis: noise, sound &
songs”.
