BIO
Carlo Zanni was born in La Spezia (Italy) in 1975. Since the early 2000's his practice involves the use of Internet data to create time based social consciousness experiences investigating our life. He lives far from the worldliness of the art world while showing and screening his projects in venues worldwide including: Hammer Museum, Los Angeles; New Museum, New York; Tent, Rotterdam; MAXXI, Rome; P.S.1, New York; Borusan Center, Istanbul; ACAF Space, Alexandria; PERFORMA 09, NY; ICA, London; Wood Street Galleries, Pittsburgh; Science Museum, London.
He founded "People From Mars" http://www.PeopleFromMars.org to experiment new distribution models for video art and new media projects.

PHOTOS from March Foundation
A set of photos from my solo show at FONDAZIONE MARCH http://www.fondazionemarch.org/
For my solo show at Fondazione March I made an installation not 100%
related to the work shown in the iPod
( http://www.fromthesunsetterrace.com ) but speaking in general terms
about the attitude of all my practice that takes advantage of
uncertainty and is filled by a high level of unpredictability.
The title is "When the class is boring I go to the bathroom"
while the Post-It on the door says "People in the classroom, not having faced many true situations of decision making under uncertainty, do not realize what is important and what is not..." (Nassim Nicholas Taleb, The Black Swan)
I see this as a kind of personal cinema, a personal platform to display part of my projects.
Enjoy,
