Isabella Bordoni (born 1962 in Rimini, Italy) is an Italian poet, writer, visual and sound artist, performer and independent curator. Involved in the sphere of public art, with wide-ranging projects of urban dramaturgies and relational arts, from 2016 she is the curator of IMAGONIRMIA AWARD "variable displacement", an international prize for the art of the present.
Early life and education
[edit]Isabella Bordoni was born in Rimini, and studied philosophy, literature, art and vocals with Gabriella Bartolomei in Florence.
Work
[edit]Her work primarily focuses on themes of language, body, voice, crossing boundaries and adhering to the process of art as techné. Her artistic practice includes performance and electronic art. Since the mid-1980s she has been involved in dramaturgy for theatre and radio. Bordoni pays particular attention to the issue of urban narratives and memory in cities and urban outskirts, and in 2000 used the terms "poetryscapes" and "poetic citizenship" to describe her work. Interested in the "document" as a device of narrative construction and deconstruction, in 2014 she also started an awareness project around the photographic archive of Marco Caselli Nirmal [it] called «Osservatorio critico/Archivio e Fondo fotografico d'autore».
