Migrart in Residence opens in Lignano Sabbiadoro
The traveling exhibition will be the result of an artistic residency planned right in the seaside resort. The goal is to arrive at a reflection on the dichotomous nature of the city
LIGNANO SABBIADORO – Saturday 8 October, at 18, nella biblioteca comunale di Lignano Sabbiadoro inaugura “MigrArt In Residence” nuova mostra organizzata dall’associazione Menti Libere e realizzata grazie al sostegno della Regione Autonoma Friuli Venezia Giulia, in collaboration with the Municipality of Lignano Sabbiadoro, other local bodies and associations.
La mostra – strutturata in un percorso itinerante fra vari spazi, institutional ones but also more informal ones with great symbolic value – will collect the works produced by six emerging artists under 30, selected by Free Minds, who will have the opportunity to participate in the artistic residence of the same name: «The residence, which will take place right in the seaside city from 3 to 8 October – hanno fatto sapere da Menti Libere –, is the third in order of time and wants to invite a reflection on the dichotomous reality of Lignano: bustling tourist center in summer, and numb locality in winter». The Association, active for ten years in the field of social promotion through participatory art, he really wants to carry out creative projects that deseasonalize the seaside resort. «Along with that – hanno chiuso -, with this initiative we intend to allow young artists to deal with those who have already gained experience, not only at the regional level».
They will in fact be the codroipese Michele Bazzana, Ryts Monet from Apulia and Kristian Sturi from Cormona, the three "tutor" artists, who will lead the younger ones, under the watchful eye of the curator Eva Comuzzi. In wood, well-known faces of the Italian cultural scene and beyond, will accompany the under 30 throughout the week of the residency during which they will be invited to reflect, and to produce works, on the unique context in which they find themselves working, that of a seaside resort, hibernating.
The work of the artist Lucia Pinat will also be included in the same exhibition 30 september to 5 October will carry out a parallel residency in Carnia, from the Pesarii. There will therefore not only be a glimpse of the seaside resort but also that of a geographically distant reality such as the Carnic village.
