Artisti MigrArt in Residence
1° Programma di Residenza d’arte contemporanea a Lignano Sabbiadoro
Dal 6 to 11 March it will take place in Lignano Sabbiadoro (UD) il 1° programma di residenza d’arte contemporanea cittadino MigrArt In Residence, inserito all’interno della 2^ Edizione del Festival “MigrArt : Art as an encounter” organized by the Free Minds Association in collaboration with the Municipality of Lignano Sabbiadoro, the beautiful Italy & Efa Village and other local bodies and associations.
The Festival, and consequently the residence, was created to culturally stimulate and raise awareness of a seaside community that, outside the crowded summer season, lives under the banner of a bare creative and aggregative environment.
The aim of the residency is to stimulate a reflection on the dichotomous reality of Lignano but also to encourage the equally difficult encounter between young emerging artists, established artists on the national scene and the host territory.
In fact, they will be Michele Bazzana, Ryts Monet and Kristian Sturi the three versatile artists from Friuli, now consolidated at national level, called to set up the collective exhibition with their works and to play the role of tutor for the nine under-30 emerging artists involved in the organization.
They will be Lorenzo Chinellato, Emma Collauzzo, Andrea D'Arsiè, Alessandro Manfrin, Noah Merlini, Francesco Patat, Greta Plana, Tommaso Sandri and Giacomo Zorba who, under the watchful eye of the curator Eva Comuzzi and the supervision of the three main artists, will be accompanied during the five-day residency in setting up the collective within the various exhibition centers but also in elaborating a reflection on the singular context in which they find themselves working, that of a hibernating seaside resort.
To underline this theme, the organization has decided to structure the exhibition in a path including various spaces, institutional ones such as the renovated exhibition hall of Terrazza Mare which will serve as an operational base and atelier, but also the more informal ones with great symbolic value such as some places that sadly remain vacant in the off-season months.
On March 11 at 18 it will be the moment of the inauguration full of surprises inside the Terrazza Mare in the presence of the curator and the artists which will be followed by a guided tour of the various exhibition spaces.
The collective will be usable for the entire duration of the Festival on Saturdays and Sundays and will see its conclusion with the finissage of the 25 March, same time same place, with a talk by the artists Isabella and Tiziana Pers of RAVE Residency which will be followed by the final event with the presentation of the paper publication.
