Emanuele Resce
World is a House of Departures
May 23 – June 27, 2026
World is a House of Departures opens on May 23 at gr_und in Berlin, in collaboration with Nashira Gallery. The exhibition, curated by Eleonore Varone and James Verhille, presents the work of Emanuele Resce, developed between Istanbul, Casalbore, and Berlin. Through an intertwining of cultural and personal layers, the works bring past and present into dialogue, shaping an imaginary composed of hybrid and evolving elements.
Through symbols, materials, and heterogeneous references, Resce constructs a visual universe in which time is fragmented and recomposed, inviting the audience to immerse themselves in a space made of departures, returns, and shared memories.
The exhibition will be open to the public until June 27.
