Cesare Pietroiusti (1955) lives and works in Rome. While he was still a psychiatry student, he set up the artists initiative ‘Jartrakor’ (1977 — 1985), together with Sergio Lombardo and others. During his career as a visual artist, cooperation has always remained important. Pietroiusti gives workshops and seminars, works as a curator and is much in demand as a speaker at conferences. His exceptionally extensive biography contains more than forty solo exhibitions and more than hundred and fifty group exhibitions in museums and (alternative) art institutions all over the world, such as: Venice Biennale (1990, 2005); Louisiana Museum, Copenhagen (1996); Ikon Gallery, Birmingham (2007); De Garage, Brussels (2007); Whitechapel Gallery, London (2010); Khoj International Artists’ Association, New Delhi (2011); Macro, Museo d’Arte Contemporanea, Rome (2012); PS1, New York (2013); BOZAR Brussels (2014); Kunstverein Arnsberg (2016); Museum MamBO, Bologna (2019). ‘A variable number of things’ is his first solo exhibition in the Netherlands.

From Friday 12 November 20:00 to Saturday 13 November 20:00, Cesare Pietroiusti will have conversations with twelve professionals from the international art world: Christiaan Weijts, Yasser Ballemans, Lotus Rooijakkers, Jorne Vriens, Vinod Singh, Mischa Andriessen, Kianoosh Motallebi, Bruno Setola, Leontine Coelewij, Filippo Tocchi, Karima Boudou and Lorenzo Balbi.
