The exhibition offers three video installations on Sartiglia seen through the eyes of two young Sardinian filmmakers, Paolo Zucca from Oristano and Paolo Bianchi from Nuoro, who restore, thanks to their contemporary gaze, an extraordinarily rich and complex vision of the relationship between current affairs and tradition and how this relationship is expressed by the different actors, including the public. The investigation of the two artists did not overlook anything and did not focus only on the crucial moments of one of the most loved events in Sardinia but tried to capture and make exemplary what we can define as the spirit, passion and identity of the tournament I live in the women and men who somehow continue the legend and fuel the myth.

A series of twenty very short videos on monitors and two real documentary films edited as fiction immerse us in the enchantment of the party, in the tension of the race, in the daily gestures, in the rituals, capturing glances, faces and atmospheres of a timeless time which brings us back to us, oscillating wildly between present and past, between the certainty and the unknown of the future. Ultimately, the exhibition, like the play on words underlying the etymology of the title, aims to bring people closer (the term carousel derives from juxta which means close and therefore from the verb juxtare which means approaching) with a critical look at the things that surround us and at the same time showing how the contemporary manages to juggle, to juggle the difficult relationship of conjugation and transmission of the past, impossible without the contaminations which paradoxically are, perhaps, precisely those that keep them alive. The exhibition is also an invitation to reclaim the ethical codes that Sartiglia expresses and which appear tremendously current and necessary such as preparing for a long time, putting yourself to the test and questioning yourself, having a clear vision of an objective and showing the mad passion to seek to reach it.
