Belmacz is pleased to announce that Esto Perpetua, the current group show curated by Lavinia Filippi, and realised in collaboration with Venice in Peril, will now be extended into early July.

 

Tiina Itkonen establishes the exhibition’s conceptual and visual framework with her 2011 photograph of San Michele Island. From this image, Venice emerges as a city where endings generate continuity, a singular place shaped not only by its fragile material fabric but also by layers of memory and immaterial heritage.

 

Carolyn Barker-Mill engages with an archival image, a still of Donald Sutherland from the iconic film Don’t Look Now, set against the atmospheric backdrop of Venice.

 

Toby Christian wakes chalk and marble on painted board, setting residual marks that recall eroded hollows and the desiccated surfaces of the evanesced. Coco Crampton explores permanence and vulnerability through abstract yet recognisable ceramic forms that recall the elegance and stratified structures of certain Venetian architectures.

 

Leonardo Frigo reactivates the mapping methods of the seventeenth-century Venetian cartographer Vincenzo Coronelli, treating craftsmanship as knowledge carried through gesture and as a way of thinking and storytelling.

 

Finally, Domitilla Harding and Massimo Nordio demonstrate how traditional Murano glass techniques can remain rigorous while evolving through experimentation, embodying continuity as adaptation rather than repetition.

Organised by Michael Newman and Frederic Fol Leymarie, Drawing for Humans and Machines is a two-day international conference proposing that drawing – one of the oldest and most philosophically charged human practices – offers an unusually clarifying site at which to examine the present transformation of human-machine relations. Toby Christian, and Stringer developer Gabriel Stones, participate with a presentation titled Stringer (Bones and Tentacles). 

 

The conference will commence at Drawing Room on Thursday 25th June at 2pm.

Hanna Mattes celebrates the launch of The Horizon Is Too Loud with a reading at Hase Studio.

Hosted by Freak of Nature Wines, the evening will take place between 6 – 9pm on Wednesday 24th June, with the reading commencing at 7pm.

The Horizon Is Too Loud began as a 20-day transoceanic journey from Chile to Australia. Across a series of horizon photographs and a prose-poetic text of approximately ten pages, the project explores what it means to orient oneself within a world increasingly unmoored. The horizon, once a stable reference point, becomes saturated—almost deafening—no longer offering clarity but exposing the limits of human-centered ways of seeing.

A newspaper style publication comprised of 46 pages, The Horizon Is Too Loud is available for purchase here.

Conceived by IUNO and Case Chiuse, Read More About Atlantis and Connect the Dots unfolds as an environment of continuous translations: between surface and depth, organism and machine, reality and simulation, memory and prediction. The works of the two artists do not illustrate dystopian scenarios, but rather propose alternative ways of perceiving the present, continuously shifting an anthropocentric reference toward geological temporalities, hybrid ecologies, and forms of existence that are never fully legible.

 

Atlantis therefore does not emerge as a lost place to be rediscovered, but as a perceptual condition that continues to resurface beneath the surface of contemporary images: a submerged mirage, an incomplete archive of possible connections. The exhibition invites viewers to move through these fragments, to follow unstable trajectories, to “connect the dots” without ever fully reconstructing a final image.

 

Read More About Atlantis and Connect the Dots will be on view until on Wednesday 24th June.

Further Information 

Building on the idea of objects that exist outside linear time, Ikons explores how a recurring personal memory, motif, or oblique narrative might settle and crystallise into a single form, held in a state of capture. What shape might it take? How does it enter a shared field of perception?

 

The space brings together a series of jewels and small sculptures realized in metal. Together, they form a constellation of elements with luminous tactility and imagined charge, navigating the tension between indecipherability and familiarity, and opening onto multiple points of resonance.

 

Curated by Teodora di Robilant, Ikons presents works from Beatrice Bonino, Nicole Colombo, Lucrezia De Fazio, Benni Bosetto + Valentina De Zanche, Marc Kokopeli, Grant Mooney, Luca Pagin, Margherita Raso, Lucia Rossi, and Gernot Wieland.

 

The exhibition will commence on Tuesday 23rd June.

With the exhibition having opened in April, the online auction will now commence at 12pm on Tuesday 9th June, and bidding will end at 9pm on Tuesday 23rd June. Bidding will start at £400 for each drawing.

 

Toby Christian’s Stringer Study (Dear Toby…) (2025) is among the works presented.

 

Since 2021, Toby has been developing Stringer, an application that generates a suspended, fraying digital string sculpture whose composition is dictated by the user’s statement. Emerging slowly from darkness before fading away, each string form is made from an expanding archive of physical string works in his studio, digitally remodelled and interwoven with each interaction. Stringer Study (Dear Toby…) is a drawing of what resulted after he inputted the letter of invitation to contribute to the Drawing Room Biennial 2026.

The exhibition will also run until Tuesday 23rd June.
