It opens on July 17th and will be visitable until October 3rd Dialogues with the catastrophe, the exhibition at MUST - Museum of the Territory of Vimercate curated by Maria Paola Zedda, the result of the artistic residency path V_AiR 2021. The selected artists, SABA Silvia Amancei and Bogdan Armanu (Romania), Lena Chen (U.S.A.) in collaboration with Cristina Söderström, Irene Dionisio (Italy), Ruggero Franceschini and Zelda Soussan (Italy, France), Haryo Hutomo (Indonesia), Smirna Kulenović (Bosnia), reflect on climate change, on strategies to respond to the push towards acceleration, on the possibility of rethinking the positioning of our existences through interspecies dialogues that activate a new relationship with the existing. The exhibition, free admission, is an invitation to cross our time in an act of listening, to rewrite the imaginaries of the future, to rethink poetically and politically the tools to remake the world. Between the utopian and the dystopian, between the real and the visionary, the exhibition is at the same time a secular prayer and a manifesto, to catch our breath and experiment artistically with new forms of coexistence. The etymology of the word catastrophe (from the Greek katà strefein: to overturn) offers to the tragedies of our time such as the environmental, economic, and pandemic disasters of these years, an opening, a space of possibility and transformation, a desired, motivated, or unexpected reversal that shows the hidden side of things and allows the creation of spaces and imaginaries to rethink the word future.
