Where Lungomare, via Rafenstein 12, Bolzano
Time 7 pm
An event in the context of
FLUX – River interventions and explorationsWith artistic contributions by
Elisa Cappellari + Matteo Jamunno, Anna Michelotti, Amedeo Sartori, Luca WesteThe exhibition FLUX FRAGMENTS, Collection II shows four photographic excursions that narrate everyday life around the river space of Bolzano. The works deal with the diverse uses of the river and the green spaces surrounding it from different perspectives. They speak of people who live, work and spend their leisure time there and of people who use the public urban space in a multi-layered way.
Elisa Cappellari seeks out people who not only kayak along the river, but also generate electricity or have planted their gardens in the public river space. Matteo Jamunno undertakes a literary-acoustic journey with these pictures and stories. In her photo essay, Anna Michelotti accompanies young people who appropriate the river space to be among themselves and live an intimate community. Along the River by Amedeo Sartori documents public life on the riverbank around Via Trento, while the work Maradona by Luca Weste describes the living space of a young man who has taken up residence under the highway bridge. In this way, a heterogeneous mélange of views emerges about the river and its potential, as well as about its inhabitants and their lives.
