BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 30. Azerbaijan
presents the pavilion "The Attention" by Honored Artist Faig Ahmed
at the 61st International Art Exhibition—La Biennale di Venezia,
Trend reports.
The exhibition at the Azerbaijani national pavilion will be open
from May 9 through November 22.
The exhibition is organized by the Heydar Aliyev Foundation,
supported by the Ministry of Culture and the Embassy of Azerbaijan
in Italy.
Conceived as an immersive, multimodal environment, "The
Attention" unfolds across a sequence of interconnected spaces. The
work responds to the uncertainty, anxiety, and information overload
of the contemporary era, exploring internal consciousness and
reconnection to demonstrate how art can emerge from chaos.
Conceptually grounded in the legacy of Imadaddin Nasimi—a
preeminent Azerbaijani poet and central figure of the Hurufi
tradition—the project synthesizes heritage with innovation. Ahmed
integrates advanced technologies, including quantum systems,
neuro-reactivity, and data-driven processes, alongside traditional
artistic methods.
The exhibition establishes a direct parallel between Hurufi
philosophy and the quantum understanding of reality, positioning
quantum information as the contemporary counterpart to these
ancient metaphysical insights.
The Pavilion is curated by Gwendolyn Collaço whose expertise
spans Islamic art, material culture, and cross-cultural
exchange.
