In the exhibition CRAZY. Madness in contemporary art , which can be visited at the Chiostro del Bramante, 21 artists of international importance , more than 11 unpublished site-specific installations : for the first time the works of art will invade the external and internal spaces of the Chiostro del Bramante in Rome , because madness cannot have limits . The perception of the world is the first sign of instability, the first contact between external reality and the brain, between physical truth and poetic creativity, between optical laws and neurological disorders. The 21 artists called to participate in the CRAZY exhibition are part of this madness.

Carlos Amorales, Hrafnhildur Arnardóttir / Shoplifter, Massimo Bartolini, Gianni Colombo, Petah Coyne, Ian Davenport, Janet Echelman, Fallen Fruit / David Allen Burns and Austin Young, Lucio Fontana, Anne Hardy, Thomas Hirschhorn, Alfredo Jaar, Alfredo Pirri, Gianni Politi , Tobias Rehberger, Anri Sala, Yinka Shonibare, Sissi, Max Streicher, Pascale Marthine Tayou, Sun Yuan & Peng Yu.

Madness , like art , rejects established schemes, escapes from any rigid framework , rebels against constraints, as does Crazy , the project by Dart - Chiostro del Bramante curated by Danilo Eccher. No ordinary and predictable path in favor of a creative explosion capable of expanding, like the pigment flows of Ian Davenport on the stairs, and of modifying the spatial perception, like the environment of Gianni Colombo (1970). A violent shock wave that invades every accessible room, mixing and guaranteeing strong expressive jumps between the works, from the neon lights of Alfredo Jaar, also visible outside, to the total immersion of Fallen Fruit / David Allen Burns and Austin Young. A complex, subjective, oblique narrative; an inclusive and participatory atmosphere; a distribution of works and isolated and autonomous spaces in all available places, even invading rooms usually excluded from the routes.
