Since its inception, videoart has been an exceptional medium for investigating the equation “art = life” thanks to its inner technical ability in shooting life in real time. The electronic eye is the most suitable choice, if not the inescapable one, to clearly express the perceptions and experiences of the artist in their very time of happening.
As a result, videoart can provide images that fire emotions directly to the viewer and raise questions about the anthropology of tomorrow, while trying to put the aporias of today on the stage. With this latter respect, the selected works seem to highlight a coming back of a videoperfomance style free of spectacularity and sensationalism: they would rather move within a minimal-conceptual uprightness that might possibly enact all current difficulties in relating with the world that pitilessly flow to our sight.

La videoarte è stata sin dagli esordi un mezzo particolarmente adatto ad indagare l’equazione arte = vita, in virtù della sua capacità di ripresa della contemporaneità in tempo reale. Lo sguardo elettronico rappresenta la scelta più congeniale, quasi obbligata, per esprimere con chiarezza le percezioni e le esperienze dell’artista nel momento stesso del loro costituirsi. Il risultato sono immagini capaci di accendere un’emozione diretta con lo spettatore e suscitare interrogativi in grado di prefigurare l’antropologia del domani , mentre cercano di mettere in scena le aporie dell’oggi.
Al riguardo, le opere selezionate sembrano evidenziare nel clima artistico contemporaneo un ritorno ad una videoperformance screvra da spettacolarizzazioni e sensazionalismi, e anzi ai limiti di un rinnovato rigore minimal-concettuale, che forse meglio focalizza le difficoltà di relazionarsi con gli altri e con il mondo che impietosamente si svolgono davanti a noi.

Contemporary Art Museum in Nocciano
Exhibition and Cultural Promotion Centre
Largo Madonna del piano 65010 NOCCIANO (PE).

“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.
