Presentation of the project #qualcosanonva
7 pm
On the occasion of the “Action Day Frauenmarsch – Donne in marcia”.
With the project curators Angelika Burtscher and Daniele Lupo from Lungomare, Martina Oberprantacher from Kunst Meran Merano Arte and Maxi Obexer from Summer School Südtirol.
The campaign #qualcosanonva reflects on the background of violence against women in our society. In five tandems consisting of ten artists and authors, five poster campaigns have been created that use public and digital space to counter the narratives of the normal, to contradict the silence, to put ourselves on the side of those affected. The literary-artistic appeals use everyday and public space to initiate discourses and reflections on violence against women.
The posters are the result of joint discussions between the artists and authors with local experts and activists as well as the curators. 2000 posters will be displayed on public billboards and advertising spaces in South Tyrol in September.
Presentation of the project
“Mascarilla 19 – Codes of Domestic Violence”
7.30 pm
with Paola Ugolini, curator
Fondazione In Between Art Film
Art critic and curator Paola Ugolini introduces the project “Mascarilla 19 – Codes of domestic violence” by the In Between Art Film Foundation. Mascarilla 19 consists of eight new video productions commissioned from as many international artists: Iván Argote, Silvia Giambrone, Eva Giolo, Basir Mahmood, MASBEDO, Elena Mazzi, Adrian Paci and Janis Rafa. Mascarilla 19 is named after the campaign launched by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in response to the UN appeal on the appalling increase in domestic violence during the pandemic. In Between Art Film has responded to a global emergency with this project and at the same time supports artists by giving them concrete support for the production of new works at a time when all artistic endeavours have ceased.
The presentation with Paola Ugolini will be followed by the screening of seven of the eight video productions.
Screening duration approximately 100′.
In english with italian subtitles.
Free entry // Green Pass needed
The number of participants in the film screening is limited to 30 seats.
What´s on
EXHIBITION :: Binta Diaw :: Collective Practices – A Living Experience of Feeling ListenedAbout Lungomare
Lungomare, a cultural association founded in Bolzano in 2003, was created from the desire and necessity to open a space in which to share differences, experiences, opinions and desires, a space in which to make the link between cultural production and the political and social dimension. Lungomare undertakes projects that investigate and test possible relationships between design, architecture, urban planning, art and theory, the results of which are presented in different formats: public discussions, conferences, publications, exhibitions and interventions in public spaces. All these formats are characterised by the intention to interact with cultural and socio-political processes relating to the region in which Lungomare is located.
Currently Lungomare’s activities focus on long-term residency projects, a format whereby Lungomare invites guests to engage and interact within the context of South Tyrol. Lungomare’s activities are based on three principles: specific attention to the context in which the association’s projects are undertaken, the transdisciplinary approach that distinguishes these projects, and reflection on the role of Lungomare as a cultural institution in connection with the region in which it operates.
Territory
Lungomare is located at the edge of Bolzano, the capital of South Tyrol, and relates to the context in which it operates, attempting to highlight the dynamics of change. Large urbanized areas alternate with broad areas of intensive cultivation and yet others of picturesque landscape, all of which penetrate the centre of the city. The city is surrounded by mountains and this is one of the reasons why the tourism industry has become a driving force in this locality. The demographic structure of the city has been characterized for a long time by the coexistence of two populations, those speaking German and those speaking Italian. However, the social and demographic composition of Alto Adige Südtirol is changing. Migrants, including those from non-European countries are making their way to the area to settle, whilst others, including political refugees, are flowing through the region.
