Adding to the lively atmosphere of the Turbine Hall during the day, a newly commissioned, one-off performance devised by contemporary artist Paola Pivi will form the latest instalment in the artist's characteristically playful, irreverent and sometimes surreal oeuvre.

Pivi's work touches upon many of the ideas explored by Arte Povera. As the Arte Povera critic and curator Germano Celant has written, 'Her practice diverts and reorganises the pre-existing relationship between the world and the objects: their new unnatural state of co-existence finds its roots in an enigmatic and magical way of thinking.'
