    The artists featured in Parlour No. 21, Object Not Found, all have art practices in which what matters to them is a conceptually-driven process—not a final object. But, “Object Not Found” as a title is fitting for more than that reason alone. The phrase also happens to be an online error message, one that most people have come across when they have searched for a URL that no longer exists. To think about not ending up with an object as a glitch rings true when thinking about our consumerist society. However, these artists offer a variety of ways to find the validity in exactly that. They achieve this through the economy of exchange, a perpetual beginning, an exploration and celebration of the missing, and an ever-moving environment. All of this to say that often it is more interesting when we don’t find what we were looking for.

    Object Not Found features works by Venice-based artists Nico Angiuli, Nina Fiocco & Nicola Turrini, Serena Vestrucci, Mexican artist Leo Marz and New York-based artist Miryana Todorova. The exhibition is co-organized by Serena Maccianti and hosted by artist Ruggero Romanelli in Cannaregio, Venice.

    So there in Number Eighteen – the first line of Ted Hughes’ poem about the house where the exhibition is set. In contrast to the memorialised house and inhabitants of the poem, these seven artists point towards something more present and continuous, to life in number eighteen as it is now.

    So there in Number Eighteen is Parlour’s first exhibition in the United Kingdom, curated and hosted by Susie Clark in the house she shares with friends in Bloomsbury, London.
