Gut Feeling

Gut Feeling Exhibition by Lithuanian artist Robertas Narkus. Pavilion of Lithuania at the 59th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia.

Curated by Neringa Bumblienė, commissioned by Contemporary Art Centre, Vilnius. ‘Gut Feeling’ by Lithuanian artist Robertas Narkus is a complex work that manoeuvres between an honest desire to change the world, a persistent belief in the promise of collaboration, the egocentric ambitions of the artist, and a flirtation with financial structures, technological progress and humour. The term ‘gut fee

ling’ describes a certain sense of intuition, a hunch which, according to half-forgotten folklore and the latest scientific discoveries, closely links the activities of the gut with the brain. In collaboration with a renowned fermentation specialist, scientists, fellow artists, local residents and small businesses, Narkus has created a social sculpture in one of the last remaining non-gentrified Venetian squares in the Castello district – a surrealist cooperative producing a mysterious product made from an invasive species of seaweed harvested from local waters. Robertas Narkus (b. 1983) lives and works in Vilnius, Lithuania. Commissioner: Kęstutis Kuizinas
Curator: Neringa Bumblienė

~~ So much time, so little to do. ~~
Let's look around; there is so much paradox happening everywhere.

Lithuanian Pavilion Gut Feeling is somewhere between an honest desire to change the world, a persistent belief in the promise of collaboration, artist's egocentric ambitions, and a flirtation with financial structures, technological progress and humor.

Our pavilion is divided in two spaces – make sure you visit both of them. One part of the premises is dedicated to experiments and production, while the other is for representation and distribution: mimicking structures of capitalist production.

In collaboration with a renowned fermentation specialist, scientists, fellow artists, local residents and small businesses, Robertas Narkus has created a social sculpture in one of the last remaining non-gentrified piazzas in Venice’s Castello district; producing a surrealist cooperative making a mysterious product from seaweed harvested from local waters.

This species of algae, Undaria pinnatifida, also known as Wakame, is an invasive plant that has spread from Asia to the rest of the world – including Venice – as a result of globalisation. It is one of the most nutritious and rapidly renewable food sources, with ostensible potential to solve the imminent nutritional scarcity of Earth’s rapidly growing population.
