Italian artists explore variety of themes
ORGANIZED by Shanghai International Culture Association and the Garuzzo Institute for the Visual Arts, a group show titled “Contemporary Visions: Italian Artists in China” casts the spotlight on some of the most significant experiences of the current crop of Italian artists.
The exhibition encompasses a selection of works by 29 artists ranging from 25 to 50 years old.
The exhibition involves multiple artistic expressions, such as drawing, painting, photography, installation, video and sculpture, demonstrating the feelings of contemporary Italian artists toward modern society.
Seemingly a reflection on art in this day and age, the exhibition poses a fundamental question: Which strategies can artists implement to mark out their individuality, the uniqueness of their message, in a system that gobbles everything up and spits it back out in a never-ending stream? “Contemporary Visions” is an attempt to think through these facets of art.
As a parallel event to “Contemporary Visions,” “Mi Casa Es Tu Casa, My House is Your House: Artists of Shanghai Comment on Their City” is also running at the museum.
The exhibition aims to reflect upon the possible links in the works of participating artists. Curated by Davide Quadrio, the show explores the public space through the practice of artists of different generations living in Shanghai, employing a wide range of media.
The exhibition features a series of works as a response to environment and nature — or the lack of it — in Shanghai.
Date: Through July 24 (Tuesday-Sunday), 10am-5pm
