LIUBA will present at Galleria Marconi the solo show Guardando Oltre and a new urban participatory collective performance intitled Tiresias Maritime , to which the public is invited to attend. At 6pm there is the participatory performance and at 7pm the opening of the exhibition. Those attending the performances will receive a certificate of participation signed by the artist.
Galleria Marconi is located in c.so Vittorio Emanuele II No. 70 in Cupra Marittima. The exhibition can be visited until May 6, 2017 at the following times: Monday - Saturday 16:30 to 19:30.
The exhibition is based on the reflection about blindness, both in physical and mental ways. It is also concerning the issue of refugees and the problem of 'not seeing' the others in their own humanity. In this regard LIUBA says: "I chose to work on the idea of blindness, both physical and mental, as a metaphor of the blindness and superficiality that permeates our contemporary world, where among social media, fast and fleeting contacts, we don't have time to 'see' in depth, becoming, in a way, blind. Blind to the meaning of life, blind to the little things, blind to the needs of others. I connect this theme, for obvious reasons, to the issue of refugees, people who leave their land for very serious problems, which are often 'seen' in a stereotypical or even instrumentalized way, often for political purposes, with the result that many people 'do not see' the human history and the common roots that we have with these people. "
"We change perspective on things, we try to find a meaning to the words other than what we normally take them, enrich the look, the way, the weather. With the many years of work that I have behind, I learned that there is always something to learn, There is a possibility to be able to see things from a different direction. The verse is a perspective, it is the way we do and that we must have the ability to change. Our society is made up of several lines that cross and that allow men to advance. What does art in all this? Everything: the art is looking, love, language, but mostly it is a path that can not stop the outward appearance, the comfortable, to assume, just because it looks to the human soul. And then also to poetry and this will even say something ... "(Franco Marconi)
