“Legami di sangue” is an exhibition taking place at the Contemporary Art Museum in Nocciano (PE) as a way to investigate what can tie the Abruzzi Region to the Lombardy Region in Italy.
The exhibition compares 5 artists from Lombardy to 5 from the Abruzzi and hosts art professionals from both Regions, wishing to find new solutions and ties that would hopefully be beneficial to either parts. VisualContainer has been invited by Ivan d’Alberto, the Museum director, to join the exhibition programme and the talk, and will present a two-video selection investigating such connection between North and South Italy and questioning contemporarity:
Iginio De Luca: L’urdemo emigrante (2008)
U.S.O. Project + Selfish: Girl Running (2009)
The opening will be on Sunday 5 December and will welcome the interventions by Ivan D’Alberto, Maria Presutto, an expert of the Lombard art environment, Giorgio Fedeli, president of Visualcontainer and Benedetta Spalletti, director of Vistamare art gallery in Pescara.
This cultural exchange will provide the Abruzzi with useful insights to the Lombard art environment and market and Lombardy with new human resources (the artists) for its circuit.
Chosen artists are as it follows:
for the Abruzzi : Andrea Berardinucci, Igor Cascella, Carlo Federico, Alessandro Rietti ande Giacomo Sabatini;
for Lombardy: Lisa Dalfino, Igino De Luca, Luigi D’Eugenio, Valentina Garbagnati and U.S.O. Project + Selfish (Giovanni Antignano, Matteo Milani e Federico Placidi). Each artist will present a work that best esemplifies his/her creative language with respect to the exhibition’s theme.
‘Legami di sangue’ is an exhibition that aims to underline the connection of old between North and South, but also becomes a way for the Museum in Nocciano to celebrate the oncoming 150th anniversary of Italy union.
