Contemporary art and his time, curated by Angela Madesani, is the first of a cycle of exhibitions annually entitled ROOMS OF CONTEMPORARY, which will involve several municipalities in the Province of Bergamo few kilometers away from each other , on some main themes of art history that put in dialogue the old and traditional with the contemporary.
This first exhibition is promoted by six municipalities of the eastern Bergamo low - TORRE PALLAVICINA CORTENUOVA, FOOTBALL, MORENGO, ROMANO DI LOMBARDIA, COLOGNO IN SERIOUS - with the aim of enhancing its historical sites that are situated chronologically between the sixteenth and twentieth century . major buildings, full of history and memory, where the curator brings the works of 46 contemporary artists, whose reflection is centered on the theme of "time" in the historical sense, existential, historical, artistic, philosophical. On display will be figurative paintings and not photographs, videos, sculptures and installations which come into close relationship with internal and external spaces and in close dialogue with each other.
THE EXHIBITION
"The spaces - the editor stresses - are strongly characterized and you could not expect to expose works that were not in tune with them. I do not, however, invited artists to submit a site-specific work. I called them because I chose with their work on the theme of "time / chronos". Each uses different media, photography, video, installation, drawing, painting, sculpture in marble, ceramics, plaster, lead and wool and even writing. The division and placement in the various locations of their works follows a curatorial taste. "
