Artist Duo E2 (Elizabeth Kleinveld & Epaul Julien) will be showing works at Bongiovanni Gallerie from Oct.5th,in occasion of AMACI,yearly event,to emphasize the importance of international collaboration and cultural exchange.
Inspired by both the work of Claire du Duras’s Ourika and Umberto Eco’s History of Beauty,Duo E2 who hail from New Orleans, have embraced old world masterpieces imbuing them with a new meaning to bring about a dialogue about the effect of stereotypes.

Anguissola…Work from these 5 Italian artists will also be seen in the show.E2 works closely with the Dutch National Theatre,which provides most of the costumes.Some costumes have been commissioned from Atelier Pietro Longhi,Venice.Recently Castelvecchio Museum has commissioned E2 to reproduce a Veronese for Art Verona. Atelier Pietro Longhi is creating the costume for that piece.Work from E2’s For the Love of Art series has been shown at the Contemporary Art Center New Orleans, the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, the Houston Center for Photography, Photoville, NYC and the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag.
