On June 20, Fondazione Querini Stampalia presents a special book launch to mark the release of the exhibition catalogue Cosmotechnics: Ding Yi as a Planetary Code. The event features an in-depth conversation between artist Ding Yi and curators Alfredo Cramerotti and Auronda Scalera, followed by a guided tour led by the curators.
Published by Skira, this catalogue brings together a wide range of voices engaging with Ding Yi’s practice across history, philosophy, and architecture, featuring essays by Alfredo Cramerotti and Auronda Scalera, Cristiana Collu, Shane McCausland, Kuiyi Shen, and Sumayya Vally. It is complemented by a rich visual corpus, including full installation views from Carlo Scarpa’s Area at the Fondazione Querini Stampalia and a career-spanning selection of works dating from the 1980s to the 2020s.
Free admission, registration required here.
The conversation will be held in English.
Cosmotechnics: Ding Yi as a Planetary Code is presented by the Fondazione Querini Stampalia in collaboration with Lisson and ShanghART, and is on view until 22 November 2026.
