The catalogue of the 2021 Belgrade Biennale, curated by Italian curators Ilaria Marotta and Andrea Baccin, founding directors of
CURA., exploring the space of dream as a metaphorical space of freedom.
The book, designed in collaboration with Dan Solbach, includes a wide selection of essays called to investigate the dream world from different angles.
The catalogue is supplemented by an original section dedicated to artists' dreams, inspired by the book Sogni/Dreams published by
Hans Ulrich Obrist and Francesco Bonami in 1999 and by a large iconographic atlas of works introduced by Costanza Paissan. A rich collection of bibliographic and filmographic references suggested by the artists, enriches this choral publication, which explores the dream world as a metaphorical space of freedom, capable of re-reading categories, rules and roles, and the most established certainties.
