*** the artists involved: Carla Paiolo_Cecilia Borettaz_Giorgia Valmorri_Meri Iacchi_PetriPaselli_Virginia Lopez_Bifido.You can’t prolong profitably modernity if not overcoming the struggles that he bequeathed to us: in our post-industrial society, the more urgent is the emancipation of individuals but that of interpersonal communication. The emancipation of the relational dimension of existence. (Nicolas Bourriaud)
senseOFcommunity # 1//Venice | the communitarian spirit of the art in the 2.0 society
The title chosen for the entire workshop aims to focus research on two topics correlated: the new sense of community result from daily use of social networks and community spirit that the practice of art contains. The context is that of web 2.0 companies, the society in which we live daily exchanges and intimacy in a constant size and not paradoxical virtual proximity. The artists in this human and social environment extend horizontally and democratically their creative instances a growing interaction and sharing. The result is a land of passions and the choices of style and means no longer direct hetero but sensibly. The practice of the art contributes to the production of meaning, poses questions to this community and get multiple answers and articulated. The curatorship fits into this community as a practice of listening and amplification of the sense of matching tie and triggered by the cultural climate in which artists work. The art comes out of modernist conflict dynamics and explores the bonds ball, coesistenze, connections, connections and exchanges. The report and the report are essential materials of the art work, relationships with the human and natural environment, with the system of shared values or shared, with the tradition, with a vision of a sustainable future possible and widely.
//stage 1 #. The Officina delle Zattere that hosts this first stage of Sense of Community allows for a reflection on the theme of connections from a special perspective. Venice is the city of connections, where everything is connected with everything, and where nothing exists for itself. 159 118 Islands connected by navigable canals. An immense network of stories, people, houses, boats, aspirations, dreams and visions. There is a corner of this vast interconnected organism, where it is not possible to do, see or think of art as everyday practice. Art that is track and report location.
