The documentary Massimo Bartolini. Due qui / To Hear, provides an in-depth look at every stage of the production, set-up and installation of Massimo Bartolini’s project for the Italian Pavilion at the 2024 Art Biennale. In dialogue with curator Luca Cerizza, the artist involves musicians, writers, performers, engineers, and artisans — including Caterina Barbieri, Gavin Bryars, Kali Malone, Nicoletta Costa, and Tiziano Scarpa — to bring a complex project to life, where art, music, technology, and engineering converge. The result is an immersive experience unfolding in the interior and exterior spaces of the Italian Pavilion, where music, sound, resonance and listening play a central role in a large-scale choral project. As the film unfolds, we witness the conceptual organisation and technical realisation of the installation, where the voices of the protagonists clarify the various issues addressed and stimulate new reflections on the themes of listening, representation and audience participation.
