The cultural association Family margins , in collaboration with Ácaos, Civic Gallery of Contemporary Art in Aci Castello, presents from 17 July to 20 September 2010, the collective "Third Renaissance", in one of the magic of Sicily, the Norman castle of Aci Castello.
"Third Renaissance": a possibility of change in the language of art, expressed by a group of artists of today who, through various media, trying to find the meaning of & rsquo ; exist. They are creative, through programs of "deviance", reflect the need to go on ahead to the redevelopment of the values of beautiful and good. Values morphologically and conceptually chameleon, because they insist the contamination originated from the overlapping of migrants. The values of beauty and goodness, and their Greek matrix, found in Sicily, the natural terrain and become magnetic poles of the flow of energy that belongs to a triangle of land between the seas whose symbol is the Trinacria, semiotics of dynamic languages and cultural engagement.
In the logic of a true creative and experimental investigation, utopian, marginal, after the huge success at the Ducal Palace in Urbino, "Third Renaissance" opens a new page, not only for the extension to artists of other cultures, Europe and beyond ; especially: the nomad project, conceived and developed by Family margins, meet the cultural reality of volcanic land at Catania and new forms of contamination.
The artists of "Third Renaissance", carriers of codes generated by crossing conceptual techniques by mutations painting, sculpture crossing forms of assembly and recycling, from photography to video art, performance poetry image. They also outline a multi-varieties, as well as the confusion and serial iconography that characterizes the commercial era.
The exhibition inaugurates the opening of Á ; chaos, Civic Gallery of Contemporary Art in Aci Castello, and is set up in its offices, from the Norman castle (XI century) to continue in the halls of the neighboring Russian palace, also under protection. The castle stands overlooking the sea, overlooking on one side to Africa and the other towards Etna. Just in Aci Castello volcanics are formed in the underwater environment 500 or 600 thousand years ago. Not by chance is known as "Gulf preetneo", highlighted by "Pillows" (spherical pillow lava blocks). The castle is home to a museum etnopaleontologico. The context tells of myths (the stacks hurled by Polyphemus against Ulysses and his) and literary history: Aci Trezza, where the Malavoglia Verga, the Casa del Nespolo preserves artifacts and ethno-anthropological materials photography for the film "The earth trembles" where Luchino Visconti in 1947, tells the story of the novel.
Association Family Margins of reality ' avant-garde was born in Milan, committed to building a future that goes beyond the contemporary crisis and the emotional disorientation, grasps with both hands the revived demands and clear signs of a historic transition, "Third Renaissance" was born to challenge the new is ; ra that is forming. To get answers not only by experts, scholars and professionals, but also (and especially) from the wider public and those that are measured in any way, with contemporary art, whether it's fans or his more radical protesters.
the "beautiful" is contamination?
save mankind from itself.
