Street art, spazi, media: pratiche di riscrittura urbana
The Persian Glimpse
2020
The paper presents the results of a residential workshop dedicated to ephemeral architecture and urban renewal. Through theoretical lectures, planning and design exercises and a close relationship with the inhabitants inside the place to regenerate, the work-shop made it clear to the group of students coming from the Politecnico di Milano, the Academy of Fine Arts of Brescia and the University IUAV of Venice that “light” design elements can clearly transform the perception of a place by improving its liveability.
Il passato nel presente. Triumphs and Laments di William Kentridge nella lettura di Salvatore Settis (passando per un’Iliade teatrale)
2021
La lettura di Incursioni, recente volume di Salvatore Settis, riporta alla memoria di Gabriella De Marco il potente allestimento dell’Iliade messo in scena dal Teatro del Carretto, per l’adattamento e la regia di Maria Grazia Cipriani. Il rapporto di continuità nelle arti, con la memoria dell’antico, con il passato, con la tradizione diventa una sorta di fil rouge che guida la ricerca di Settis. Tra gli spunti di Incursioni vi è la certezza, che “tra antico e contemporaneo non c’è netta frattura, ma una perpetua tensione, che, continuamente si riarticola nel fluire dei linguaggi” . La mise en scène del Teatro del Carretto stabilisce un rapporto con la memoria del passato inteso non come un …
Experiences of anamorphosis between poetry, architecture, and social context: interview with Boa Mistura
2020
The paper presents an interview with Boa Mistura, a multidisciplinary Madrid art collective that works all over the world and creates urban works based on the use of anamorphosis and the visual perception of urban spaces.The Boa Mistura projects are “site specific”, they are designed for a specific space and place. In the interview we explore the relationship between urban art and physical context, the way in which the works adapt to the surfaces and volumes on which they are made.The physical support of the works of Boa Mistura is often made up of separate and not coplanar surfaces and of volumes, sometimes disjointed, on which the murals recline. The same historiated surfaces determine the …
Shared Responsibility: author and public in JR's experience
2013
New forms of art have implications that go beyond the aesthetics and the theory of the arts: they emphasize ethical, political and social aspects. The understanding of the new relationship between author and users is crucial to JR’s works and theories. In this paper we will provide a theoretical explanation of his work through the tools developed by Nicolas Bourriaud in Relational Aesthetics. What is the form of artwork today? What are the duties and the role of the artist? what are those of the users? And what are the effects on the social, political and ethical sphere? We shall argue that JR's live actions are able to overcome some of Bourriaud’s theoretical limits: his activity takes pla…

Grafiti y postgrafiti en la ciudad de Valencia: una perspectiva crítica
2015
En Valencia el grafiti y el arte callejero poseen una presencia importante en las calles. Los festivales y exhibiciones toman relevancia en los distintos distritos que configuran el tejido urbano. La sociedad mira sorprendida, lo rechaza y lo admira. Son múltiples las intervenciones de arte urbano y grafiti por parte de los artistas callejeros y los escritores de grafiti. Las paredes contemplan cómo las plantillas, los encolados y los iconos dirigen la mirada de los transeúntes interpretando un lenguaje que comienza a ser cotidiano. La normativa tiene que ser revisada ante una realidad artística que grita en cada rincón, ¡otra ciudad es posible! Se trata de una tesis en la que se analiza el…

E pluribus unum. Il ruolo del pattern geometrico nella storia dell'arte siciliana
2020
The harmony of forms seems to be regulated by its own laws compatible with the cognitive processes that regulate their perception. From the mimesis of nature, artistic forms investigate the geometric relationships between the parts and define systems of representation that exploit the optical phenomenon of the tessellation to obtain complex configurations from simple polygonal modules were born. The simplest tessellation finds its first application in the mosaic whose origin as a practice is very ancient, evolving up to the Greco-Roman world enriching and differentiating itself in two essential styles, one pictorial and one abstract, both beautifully represented within the Villa Romana del …
