The festival Maremetraggio won’t be only cinema, but it will open for
the first time to another artistic language based on the creation and
reproduction of images moving inside a screen: the video art. This
particular form of expression will be explored through a dedicated
event, ironically titled “It’s all right”. The curator of the event will
be Manuel Fanni Canelles and the exibition will be realized thanks to
the collaboration of Verdi Theatre and the Artistic and Cultural
Association Coreofficina. The neighboring Slovenia with its artists will
be the protagonist of the works that will be host inside the foyer of
the Theatre from the 1st to the 3rd of July in an installation composed
by a series of screens, that will proposed in loop several art videos.
The contrast between the perfect aesthetics of the Lirical Theatre and
the videos presented, that communicate the uneasyness of contemporary
man, is a choice that amplifies the strenght of works in exposition.
