MAR Art Museum of the City - S. Maria delle Croci. Via Guaccimanni Girotto, 5 - 48121 Ravenna
4 September - 4 October 2011
In collaboration with the Province of Ferrara
The initiative is part of 'The Craft of the Arts', a three-year advanced project supported by the Ministry of Youth and the Emilia Romagna Region and implemented by the GA / ER (Association of Young Artists of Emilia Romagna), the Municipality and the Province of Ferrara. In the last phase of the program each student-artist will realize his own personal exhibition from concept to the communication and event management.
The work of Gaia Ferrario continues the research started in the summer of 2010 during the workshop-exhibition of 'The Craft of Art, Here we are-the space is always specific' with the her ‘Quotidiana-Mente’ installation.
Broadband is a term in constant evolution. It’s '"high speed", it’s a simultaneous transmission of more data.
The communication network becomes faster but also a trap.
The main work of this exhibition, a mesh of 60 mq2-page newspapers, comes from reflection on the complexity of the languages that surround us. Broadband and its diffusion are factors of economic growth of a country. 'Quotidiana-Mente', with its 3000 ‘Sole 24 ore,' is a vision of this split. The newspaper is memory, current events, physical evidence, the choice of information.
The exhibition offers an overview on the relationship of dialogue and dramatic metamorphosis in the way of information, including past, present and future.
