Curating art, narrating reality.
A place where creativity and research meet.
Here are our projects:
La sicurezza degli oggetti is the solo exhibition by Annabel Elgar, set within the spaces of NonostanteMarras in Milan.
La sicurezza degli oggetti presents a selection of works by Annabel Elgar that trace the central themes of her research and the outcomes of her formal experiments. The exhibition spans from the compositions of forgotten objects in the Refuge series (2008) to the curious, embroidered figures in the Lockdown Cross-Stitch series (2021). The space of NonostanteMarras becomes populated by the characters and stories that Elgar constructs and narrates—an endless, self-generating narrative possibility. These are enigmatic stories that seem to deliberately resist, with grace and irony, any attempt at resolution.
Annabel Elgar (1971) lives and works in London. She holds a Master of Arts in Photography from the Royal College of Art, and her work has been featured in numerous international exhibitions and publications. Recent exhibitions include NUCLEUS – Imagining Science, Noorderlicht Photofestival, Netherlands (2017); Photography is Magic, Aperture Foundation, New York (2016); Setting Out, apexart, New York (2016); Contemporary Photography in North-Western Europe, Fondazione Fotografia, Modena (2015).
The exhibition is presented in conjunction with the 2021 edition of the Photo Vogue Festival.
