Artempo: Where Time Becomes Art was an encyclopedic art exhibition created for the Palazzo Fortuny, Venice in 2007. It examined the relationship between art and time , and the power of display.
The exhibition included variations of cultures and periods, and featured objects ranging from simple "objects trouvés", archaeological materials, applied art, old, classical, and modern art, to contemporary installations.
The exhibition was made by Mattijs Visser and Axel Vervoordt, together with Jean-Hubert Martin.
Artempo was housed in the Venezian-Gothic Palazzo Fortuny, Mariano Fortuny's former home, studio, showroom, and "Think-Tank". Fortuny's own art ranged across many fields, and he was also an eclectic art-collector, as well as an organizer of lectures, concerts, and discussions. Artempo was designed with the spirit of Fortuny in mind, utilizing the Palazzo as a "Laboratory of Ideas"
Diameter respectively 85 and 105cm.
