Tre colori, una bandiera e un sacco di artisti
Happening, Italy, Roma, 04 July 2011
Skills: Critic, Curator, Gallery owner, Photographer, Artist
The initiative involves hundreds of artists involved and wants to spread throughout Italy and is to compose a flag made of hundreds of small scraps and write a short thought on the country in a notebook attached to the banner. The first flag, with the notebook, will start on 17.03.2001, the day of the sesquicentennial of the Unification of Italy and will be sent to the first artist or group of artists who cuciranno their young tricolor one you received. In turn they will send the banner and the notebook to the next artist or group of artists who in turn cuciranno artist and will ship next, and so on.



At the end of the banner will be delivered to the President of the Republic (in ways yet to be defined, you accept tips!) As evidence of the national spirit that bring together artists and intellectuals from all over Italy.



The current historical moment requires the Italian artistic and intellectual conscience a reminder of the values ​​of unity, solidarity and cohesion, and the sewing their pieces of the flag to a flag becomes a way to feel part of a whole, a desire to bring together, for break down the many barriers that divide our people.



The initiative has no political goals, rather moral and comes with a super-partes imprinting, unfettered by political motivations, religious or racial hatred. It 'just need a bit' of love of country!





HOW TO THE TRICOLORE



The size of each color must be measuring 15x15 cm, then each artist will contribute three clippings (one green, one white and one red). It is from 'freedom to use the fabric that you prefer, if they're strong enough and stitching. It is from 'the ability to customize their crops, provided that the customizations are done tone on tone (green on green, white on white, red on red)



HOW TO SEW YOUR SCRAPS TRICOLORE



The first strip will be built in Livorno presumably at least six artists who would make up the first strip (6 crops green + 6 + 6 white cutouts cutouts red) that will measure the following:

6x15 + 6x15 + 6x15 = 270 cm. The first strip then measure 270x15cm

Later artists cuciranno their clippings Under this strip, then we will have a fixed size (270cm) and a variable that will depend on the number of participants.





HOW TO SEND THE TRICOLORE



Anything you like, as long as the shipment is traceable and you can always know where it is passing. Since the package will start at the beginning rather small and in the end it could be quite large, will be arranged shipping to larger groups at the end of the route, so that participants can easily split the shipping costs. Does not ship by mail, we can not afford to let the lead go down the drain because of Posts!



WHAT TO WRITE THE BOOK



On a notebook you should write your thoughts concerning our country, remember that will be delivered to the President of the Republic and that the spirit of the initiative is apolitical. You can put full name and city of origin.
