Terzo Fronte, Rome/Athens

Terzo Fronte is an independent space that has deployed its programming between Rome and Athens, in the domestic spaces of the two founders. Created in 2021 by Georgia René-Worms and Colin Ledoux, Terzo Fronte borrows its mode of operation from literature and has built its programming around chapters conceived as a narrative experience, like a living book.
For art-o-rama we are pleased to present the Administrations of Relationships
with works by: Maxime Bichon, Basile Ghosn*, Grossi Maglioni, Marinella Pirelli*, Pierre René-Worms, Laure Vigna*, Camille Yvert, Terzo Fronte & Friends
What do emotions have to say about our relationship with the world ? This is perhaps one of the questions currently being addressed by what is known affect theory, so well embodied by the theorist Sara Ahmed, who sees this way of thinking as a theoretical tool for ‘thinking about experience as a resource for generating knowledge ’. It’s an attempt to see emotions not just as psychological states, but as social and cultural practices. Administrations of Relationships explores what everyday relationships – and the way they are managed in love, friendship, economy and micro-organism – do to our lives. It’s also the title of the upcoming publication of the past six exhibitions produced by and held at Terzo Fronte between 2021 and 2023.
