“Painting through the Window in Venice”
“Artisti in Vetrina a Venezia”
Venice, the historical city of arts, cultural traditions and of prestigious festivals such as the Biennale, has become the topic of an innovative painting competition : the art works will be shown in hundreds of shop windows spread all over the city. This is an innovative method of getting acquainted with the architectural and artistic beauty of a town by means of an innovative
exhibition itinerary dedicated to the Venetians and their international public.
The German-Italian Association ACIT of Palazzo Albrizzi in Venice, in collaboration with the international group of curators and architects, TheSeven, and the Association of Merchants and Shopkeepers of the Region of Veneto, Confesercenti, are the organizers of this enchanting contest for painters which has no restrictionon the behalf of origin background or age.
The registration period has already started and lasts until March 6, 2012.
A commission composed of art critics and art historians will value the art works and select a group of five finalists who will take part in a collective exhibition in May 2012 at Palazzo Albrizzi , prestigious residence of the ACIT and exhibition gallery which has already hosted many projects of the Biennale. The final exhibition is curated by Nevia Capello, President of the ACIT and by Elis Saint Juste, architect and chief curator of the TheSeven.
The project unites several important features for the production and the promotion of contemporary art of quality : it is a point of departure for who desires to exhibit an art work in a window which opens a look to the world and offers a new perspective to the visitors of Venice to get to know lanes
and squares distant from the usual tourists' path. At the same time the art show is a remarkable moment for the shopkeepers and merchants who will receive a huge number of visitors, interested in art but who could also become potential clients of the products on sale in the various shops.
Artists in the Window takes place under the patronage of the City of Venice and the Chamber of Commerce.
The project is an invitation to a walk through places where architecture and contemporary art become tools of interpretation and new reading of a city and its relation with art, nature and people.
