From 29 September to 5 November 2016 the Galleria Massimodeluca will be hosting a show to mark the close of the Darsena residency#2 for artists (opening on Thursday 29 September at 6 p.m.). The second edition of this project, which is unique in Italy, was conceived and promoted by the artistic director of the Massimodeluca gallery, Marina Bastianello. It was held from June to July, and its protagonists were four young artists who were chosen from more than 250 high-quality candidates from more than thirty countries: Regina Magdalena Sebald, Agostino Bergamaschi, Marco Strappato and Isabel Legate. These young artists not only worked but for a month shared the exhibition venue and transformed it into a space for creating relationships, contaminations, and production.
The works made in those weeks reflect the thoughts inspired by three thematic sessions, conceived by the project’s coordinators Paolo Brambilla and Stefano Cozzi. The show, curated by Valentina Lacinio and Claudio Piscopo, will be installed using the gallery’s entire space including the corners, never before used for exhibitions, and will tell of Appropriation, the Future, and Resistance.
