The first volume in the New Museum's redesigned Focus series spotlights Marcon's uncanny, unsettling recent video work

Italian artist Diego Marcon's (born 1985) installations and films co-opt familiar forms from horror movies, slapstick comedies and cartoons to underscore and subvert cinematic archetypes. Animation, stop-motion, musicals and other subgenres feature heavily, with echoes of popular culture ranging from the world of Tim Burton to the music videos of early MTV. Shocking, uncanny and surreal, his filmic worlds, writes Kate Brown, are exercises in navigating unknowns, and that is what makes them unforgettable. Arrivederci, Piggies presents a newly commissioned video alongside three additional works, while the catalog provides a retrospective overview of Marcon's oeuvre. This exhibition at the New Museum, New York is part of a new partnership with Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo in Turin.
