Iris Touliatou. Vehicles

As the recipient of the 2025 edition of the Pista 500 Prize, for the new season of Pista 500, Pinacoteca Agnelli presents Vehicles, a new site-specific commission by Iris Touliatou (1981, Athens, where she lives and works) on La Pista 500. Iris Touliatou’s practice explores and questions the limits of the spatial, financial, administrative structures that govern the institutions that invite her to create, produce, and present her work, whether they are museums, galleries, or biennials. Her interventions are “economic” in two ways: they question the very meaning of this term, recalling its Greek etymology. By treating the institution’s given conditions and architecture as a medium rather than a methodology, the piece disrupts the boundary between content’s production and its dissemination.
