Inclined or angled lines which\, over time\, have increasingly taken on an environmental value\, occupying architectural spaces\, both indoors and outdoors\, of which\, through changing solutions\, they seem to want to overcome the limits. \nOne of the most original Sardinian artists of his generation\, for the MAN Italo Antico Museum he conceived an exhibition project that includes six works\, of which five created between the mid-seventies and the end of the following decade – among the most significant of his career sculptural – and one created for this occasion. \nThe five works from the Seventies and Eighties exemplify the artist’s thought\, his approach to sculptural construction\, his attempt\, reiterated over time\, to conquer space through the sign. Works\, as Gillo Dorfles wrote already in 1976\, which undermine the idea of ​​plastic mass\, which deny any principle of monumentality to open up to a vision of the world “in which sculpture increasingly takes on the function of personalizer of an environment\, of index inserted within a context”. \nThe recent work\, “Vita Sospesa”\, the fulcrum of the entire exhibition project\, is the last of a cycle dedicated to his son Angelo\, who died prematurely a year ago. The sculpture\, composed of a bundle of steel rods \, typical of Italo Antico’s production\, rests on a base of books that belonged to the son and is covered with a wet white cloth from which the folds of the auctions can be seen. To be treated\, with the delicacy and lightness of which Antico\, like few others\, is capable\, are the themes of memory\, transparency and abandonment\, evoked here both in the way of treating the materials and in the forms created. \nConceived as an opportunity to reread the artist’s work and at the same time as a look\, however limited\, at his activity today\, which is more intense and full of ideas than ever before\, Italo Antico’s exhibition at the MAN Museum opens a cycle of events dedicated to abstraction in Sardinian artistic production of the last fifty years.

A public art operation and at the same time urban redevelopment\, the mural was executed in the days between 14 and 15 May and concluded on Saturday 18 May in the presence of the public. The different stages of realization of the work were documented by the videomaker Gian Mario Atzeni (Giado). \nBorn in Cagliari in 1984\, Federico Carta\, aka crisa \, approached the world of writing at a very young age. In 2001 he began painting on recycled materials\, focusing on an original style that projected him onto a new artistic path. Alongside the spray can – a favored tool in traditional writing – Carta combines experimentation with different techniques such as water-based paint\, oil tempera and enamel. Made on canvases\, rusty sheets or other recycled supports\, Federico Carta’s works deal with the theme of the relationship between nature and urbanisation. \nCarta lives and works in Cagliari\, has painted many walls in his city and exhibited his works in various galleries\, in Sardinia and abroad. Since 2008 he has been involved in social work with artistic projects aimed at young people in the Quartucciu juvenile prison and in the Cagliari psychiatric service. In 2009\, one of his site-specific interventions enriched the collection of the Tiscali Campus of Sa Illetta. In 2011 he exhibited at the PAV of the Time in Jazz Festival in Berchidda\, within the exhibition Earth . \nThe inauguration of Federico Carta’s project was included in the events organized by the MAN Museum on the occasion of Museum Day. The event\, which took place in the street\, was accompanied by a DJ SET by Stefano Ferrari (http://www.menion.org/). Composer and instrumentalist born in Nuoro\, his productions are a mix of electronic music\, Glitch Hop\, Ambient and post-rock.

Influenced at a young age by the painters Pietro Antonio Manca and Giuseppe Biasi\, over the course of his career he developed an original language characterized by a marked expressiveness\, with stylized features and bright\, contrasting chrome. \nKnown above all for his paintings of warriors inspired by Nuragic statuary\, between the end of the 1950s and 1975\, the year of the painter’s death\, who died prematurely in a road accident\, Nonnis created a large series of drawings and paintings on paper depicting horses in movement. Compared to the paintings of warriors\, where the themes of myth and fairy tales are treated\, Nonnis’ horses carry out a parallel\, more sober and immediate research\, in line with the stylistic solutions developed in 1959 within the Crucifixions cycle . \nThe Casa Lai exhibition complex in Gavoi will host around fifty works\, many of which are unpublished\, coming from the collection of Pier Paola Nonnis\, Giovanni’s daughter\, and from other private collections. Open to the public on Friday\, Saturday and Sunday\, the exhibition will be accompanied by a critical text by Enzo Avanzi.

A profoundly Sardinian theme expressed\, on the one hand\, by the artist of our twentieth century who represented it more than anyone else\, Marino Marini\, and on the other through the gaze of some contemporary artists\, authors of video works in which the theme of knight is reread in a current key\, according to different points of view and perspectives which\, in the project as a whole\, constitute a sort of critical text in images. \n\n\n\nPost Scriptum\n\n\nConceived as a project parallel to Marino Marini’s exhibition and at the same time independent\, the “Postscriptum” exhibition presents video works created in the last ten years by Italian and international artists: Tania Bruguera (Cuba\, 1968)\, Alberto De Michele (Italy\, 1980)\, Pietro Mele (Italy\, 1976)\, Anri Sala (Albania\, 1974)\, Carolina Saquel (Chile\, 1970)\, Nedko Solakov (Bulgaria\, 1957)\, Salla Tykkä (Finland\, 1973). The selected works\, although different from each other in language\, sensitivity and purpose\, share the reference to the figures of the horse and the rider\, subjects still capable of evoking precise suggestions and becoming privileged interpreters of the present reality. \nTania Bruguera’s slideshow is a simple documentation of the performance created in 2008 in the Turbine Hall of the Tate Modern in London and replicated in Ljubljana and Cardiff. Fifth part of the Tatlin’s Whisper project\, the work consists in the application of some techniquescontrol of the masses by mounted police forces. The traditional image of the knight – and what is usually associated with this image in terms of magnificence and value – is here deconstructed through a process of decontextualization. The experience causes the viewer to reflect on the limits of authority and power in civil society. \nAlberto De Michele’s work\, Indomita Jet vs Dardo Coca (2010)\, illustrates the phenomenon of illegal horse racing in Southern Italy. Using his family members as actors\, De Michele organizes a competition in his father’s birthplace (Catania) and films the action using multiple cameras. The horse race is shown in different shots to simulate the mode of transmission done on the screens of gaming halls\, frequentedby regular bettors. \nIn Ottana (2008) by Pietro Mele\, the camera frames an initially unrecognizable glimpse of the countryside. After a few minutes a figure on horseback bursts onto the scene\, proceeding slowly forward. This is followed by others\, which accompany the slow vertical movement of the camera\, gradually revealing the identity of the place in which the scene takes place. This is the petrochemical center of Ottana\, in Sardinia\, whose fumes and appearance contrast with the archaic image of the man on horseback and with the natural context in which the site is located. A reflection on the complex relationship between nature\, living beings and progress. \nIn Anri Sala’s video\, Time after time (2003)\, a horse is trapped on the side of the road in a big city. The slowness of the movements and the thinness of the horse contrast with the speed of the lights of the cars and trucks\, which speed by regardless of the animal. A disturbing imageand moving\, whose strength is amplified by the fixity of the video camera\, which reflects on the conflictual relationship between nature and progress and on the sense of alienation in contemporary society. \nCarolina Saquel’s video\, Pentimenti (2004)\, presents a timeless scenography. Against an indistinguishable background\, in the middle of an expanse of sand\, a horse performs movements on the rider’s orders\, moves from right to left and vice versa\, passes in front of the camera and stops to perform the exercises. The orders are not pronounced directly by the jockey\, but by a voice-over that describes the development of the action\, as if it were a synthesis of the “dialogue” between the two protagonists. \nIn Knights (And Other Dreams) Nedko Solakov gives vent to his obsession with narration\, the mechanisms of fairy tales and the development of childhood and adolescent fantasies. Created between 2010 and 2012\, the work was presented as a multimedia installation at the latest edition of Documenta. In a series of video works and in other works Solakov retraces the myth of the medieval knight\, rooted in collective memory\, making it dialogue with modernity\, inserting it in contexts in which the sense of fiction is evident. In episode #8\, The Three Drummers and the Knight\, the artist realizes two of his greatest boyhood dreams: being a knight and playing drums in a rock band. \nSalla Tykkä’s video\, Airs Above the Ground (2011)\, tells the story of the fate of the Lipizzan horses. One of a kind\, these horses are born gray to become white as adults and are subjected to very harsh training that forces them to perform a dance of unnatural movements\, called “dressage”. The meaning of this work is all in the vision of a presumed beauty that clashes with the breathlessness and breathing of the horse under stress. Freedom\, beauty and perfection are only “a priori”\, abused and emptied of real meaning.

Over 100 photographs\, a selection of the most famous shots. Furthermore\, 30 photographs taken in Sardinia in 1950\, many of which were unpublished and presented as world premieres. \nA unique event in Sardinia\, with over 130 of Bischof’s most famous photographs combined with a series of previously unpublished shots\, the exhibition constitutes a comprehensive retrospective\, a journey into the heart of the work of one of the most important reporters of the twentieth century\, an artist recognized worldwide \, with insatiable talent. \nThe first photographer\, in 1949\, to become a member of Magnum Photos\, Werner Bischof was able to combine the documentary observation of reality\, the need not to manipulate the gaze on events\, with a lyrical\, almost intimate vision of every situation and every subject with which he found himself operating. As he stated several times\, he felt more like an artist than a photojournalist. And not many like him\, in fact\, have been able to condense\, in a few but intense years of photographic and artistic activity\, such a precise and profound\, conscious and absolutely original observation. \nRejecting the “superficiality and sensationalism” of magazines\, he dedicated much of his life to the study of traditional cultures\, often neglected\, an area that allowed him to keep his distance from publishers eager only for cover material. He thus traveled all over the world creating exceptional reportages of a social nature\, touching countries such as Japan\, Indochina\, Korea\, India – where\, in 1951\, for «Life magazine»\, he created the famous series dedicated to famine – and again\, Mexico\, Hong Kong\, Panama and Peru\, where he lost his life at just 38 years old. The images of those reports\, which appeared in the main magazines and the most important international magazines\, are visible for the first time in Sardinia thanks to the exhibition at the MAN Museum in Nuoro. \nAn important aspect of the Nuoro exhibition is the presence of an entire section dedicated to the shots that WERNER BISCHOF took in SARDINIA in 1950\, some of which were presented in their WORLD PREMIERE. \nBischof was sent to the island by «Epoca» to document the miserable working conditions of the farmers of Campidano and the miners of Iglesiente. His reportage is characterized by total immersion in the context. The seriousness of the topics covered\, which led many of his photojournalist colleagues to expressionism\, was an opportunity for him to grasp the less dramatic side of events and people. A result he achieved by using the stylistic solution of “slightly out of focus”\, capable of restoring an original freshness to the events. The photos taken in Sardinia\, in satisfying a certain degree of formal research\, find a balance between aesthetics and objective rigor in the care of the balance of the images: high cuts\, centered shots\, low and stunning close-ups with raised lights. Mastery of the technique allowed him to choose the best of an “unrepeatable” moment. His humanity is enhanced by the choice of subjects: there is the daily life of a people rather than a land\, there is the Sardinia of the people rather than the idea of ​​an abstract lineage or an offended land. And with the lightness of smile on their faces\, he managed to transcend the horrors and devastation caused by the war.

The works of the MAN collection constitute the most intimate structure of the museum\, they build its history\, becoming the most visible witnesses of its constant growth. The increase in the heritage of works\, through donations and acquisitions\, responds to the nature of the museum. \n10 years after the establishment of the original nucleus of 165 works\, the MAN\, faithful to its role as an institution\, proposes a contemporary rereading of the history of Sardinian art of the twentieth century\, with works that can be considered constitutive of the local artistic panorama. As has happened in the past\, the new acquisitions are also the result of patient research work\, inspired by the same guidelines that led to the creation of the original corpus\, to give space to the testimonies of the artistic expressions that have characterized Sardinian culture\, focusing on the most representative works of the first half of the twentieth century to continue with those of more recent or contemporary artists. \nWith this setup\, which is the same as the MAN museum\, DNA. The collection it recounted the heterogeneity of Sardinian artistic history\, bringing together different worlds and styles\, experiments and innovations\, both from the point of view of themes and subjects\, and from that of creative techniques.

Igino Panzino was born in Sassari where he studied at the state art institute under the direction of Mauro Manca. He began his activity in the early 1970s starting from the idea of ​​a work of art understood as the product of a peculiar and autonomous language\, endowed with infinite expressive possibilities with the creation of three-dimensional structures with a neo-constructivist geometric layout. \nIn the 80s he dedicated himself to painting\, transferring the same design approach into analytical research. On the occasion of the exhibition Catalog the latest works that make up various series will be presented\, including Domestic deities \, Urban plan \, Art commedy and others where manual skill is combined with imagination which becomes a powerful message made of joints\, overlaps and balanced relationships between lights\, shadows and colors URL:https://www.museoman.it/en/event/igino-panzino/ LOCATION:MAN\, Via Sebastiano Satta 27\, Nuoro\, NU\, 08100\, Italia CATEGORIES:Focus Sardegna,MAN END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Rome:20120316T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Rome:20120415T000000 DTSTAMP:20260619T114637 CREATED:20240417T141505Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240423T085935Z UID:4077-1331856000-1334448000@www.museoman.it SUMMARY:Primo Pantoli DESCRIPTION:Primo Pantoli’s exhibition\, like Giovanni Carta’s\, is part of the cycle Soluchifera . Primo Pantoli was born in Cesena (Forlì)\, where he completed his classical studies. \nIn 1950 he moved to Florence\, where he alternated painting with literary studies. In 1957 he settled in Sardinia\, where he taught artistic disciplines at the Liceo Artistico in Cagliari until 1990. \nHe was among the founders of the first avant-garde art groups in Sardinia (Studio ’58 in 1958; Gruppo di Initiative\, in 1961; Centro di Cultura Democratica\, in 1967). He has published writings and drawings in newspapers and periodicals\, art criticism articles in L’Unità and il Tempo; he was a satirical illustrator for Rinascita Sarda and Sardegna Oggi. \nHe has exhibited almost everywhere\, in Italy and abroad since 1952. He personally engraves and prints woodcut\, etching and drypoint works. He has designed around a hundred posters\, book covers\, brochures for the theatre\, conferences\, trade union and political demonstrations. He has created sets for theater and television (Rai 3). It has set up rooms and squares for events and conferences. Since 2000 he has dedicated himself to sculpture\, experimenting with different materials.

Born from the idea of ​​a museum as a possible widespread place of creation and meeting\, Tailor-made art invited 5 Sardinian artists to create a work for the window of one of the main clothing stores in the city\, the Sotgiu Store. \n\n\n\nVincenzo Pattusi\n\n\nVincenzo Pattusi 23 February – 14 March: Linked to the manual skill of making art\, the artist paints on every type of support drawing his inspiration from everyday life and popular culture\, from comics\, as well as from experimental cinema. In a sort of virtual database it continuously acquires and re-elaborates information that comes from the most disparate channels. He presents his work as a sort of monumental tapestry that reveals belonging to the world of writers\, but also the link with the Sardinian tradition\, visible in the decorative motifs of fabrics and patterns that form the backdrop to the figures. \n\n\n\nGiulia Casula\n\n\nGiulia Casula 22 March – 11 April Through the creation of photographic works\, videos and installations\, the artist represents the visual suggestions of her daily life. It alienates the viewer\, with the intention of making them relive a personal experience\, that distant memory that emerges in the mind during half-sleep through confused sensations without detail. It’s the sensation of deja-vu\, in which familiarity and estrangement mix. His works are territorial and conceptual investigations\, reflections on time and memory\, reconstructed in an aesthetic and poetic form of social criticism. \n\n\n\nVincenzo Grosso \n\n\nVincenzo Grosso 19 April – 9 May He is interested in street art and writing. His research focuses on the sign which he investigates by experimenting with different found materials and objects\, wood\, plastic. It assembles\, transforms\, defines and brings together elements\, giving life to a particular archeology of the future. Each sign is a fragment\, part of an unfathomable and invisible whole. His latest pictorial works focus attention on post-architecture and the possible consequences of the excesses of the modern world. \n\n\n\nRita Correddu\n\n\nRita Correddu 17 May – 6 June She focuses her research on observing reality to suggest\, through delicate underlining\, with minimal interventions that are sometimes ephemeral or destined to vanish\, becoming confused\, new possibilities of action and vision. He investigates the expressive forms of human experience\, where personal and collective memory manifests itself\, through ancient and present stories\, real or imagined. Sounds\, images\, spoken and written words support a research that starts from the place\, a place of reflection\, a public place\, a work spread across time and space: a variation on the idea of ​​a contemporary monument. \n\n\n\nAlessandro Biggio\n\n\nAlessandro Biggio 14 June – 4 July The artist’s starting point for his work are physical imperfections\, waste materials or materials that have become functionless\, all elements in which there is a strong autobiographical or affective component. The objective\, however\, is not to preserve its memory but to graft onto it another hypothesis of reality. Like a new construction that rests on rubble\, in sculptures as in installations\, his work finds its meaning in this precariousness.

The exhibition was born from the idea – following Borges’s idea of ​​associating the universe with a library (of Babel) – of equating time with an (infinite) book\, with something that can therefore be read\, interpreted and leafed through in an ever-changing manner. different. A risky hypothesis from which derives the idiomatic expression “flipping through time” used as the subtitle for the sixth edition of this review. The exhibition analysed\, through the presentation of video and cinematographic works\, what is permanent and fixed in every moving image and\, at the same time\, investigated the availability of time to be captured in its own interval. The demonstration attempted to outline a sort of time in a vegetative state\, a temporality in a state of arrest\, in stalemate\, such that it cannot be classified as simple movement or simple stasis. In a sort of return to the origins\, the review ranged from mythical and seminal films such as The jetée by Chris Marker and Nostalgia by Hollis Frampton\, to historical works by Ken Jacobs and Malcolm Le Grice\, to reach the present day with works by Rob Carter\, George Drivas\, Paolo Meoni\, Alejandro Moncada\, Alexandra Navratil\, Alexandros Papathanasiou\, Katja Pratschke & Gustáv Hámos\, Margot Quan Knight\, Katherine Segura Harvey\, Kathrin Sonntag\, Jutta Strohmaier\, Arnold von Wedemeyer.

Giovanni Carta\, the protagonist of this first appointment\, is the author of research oriented\, since the first creative phase\, towards a desire to simplify the image which makes the sign the protagonist of the composition. \nThe mature production\, up to the most recent results\, is characterized by a refined geometric abstractionism. His painting is geometry of the sense as well as of the intellect\, in which the rigor of the formal reduction typical of the abstract-geometric line meets that of the analytical research conducted on the primary\, physical elements of painting (support\, color\, layers). \nAn analytical attitude that however starts from an artisanal feeling\, an affective tone of work\, a manual dedication that goes back to the very sources of modern experience. Giovanni Carta studied at the Art Institute of Sassari in the 1950s\, in that period directed by Filippo Figari\, and it was by frequenting the Sassari environment that he came into contact with Mauro Manca and the new ferment that had interested numerous young people in those years artists.

After the first surveys dedicated by the museum to contemporary graphics (The New Italian Design\, Spaghetti graphics and Graphic Design Worlds) the choice of the Triennale Design Museum to dedicate an edition to Italian graphics\, visual communication and their history is an important step to enrich and complete the path of analysis and valorization of Italian design carried out over the years by the Triennale Design Museum. TDM 5: Italian graphics focused on the twentieth century\, starting from the futurist typographical revolution\, also offering some openings on the tradition of previous centuries and on more recent production\, presenting the great production heritage of Italian graphic designers in all its surprising variety of manifestations. Figures such as Albe Steiner\, Franco Grignani\, Bruno Munari\, Bob Noorda\, Armando Testa\, Massimo Vignelli and\, indeed\, Giovanni Pintori\, have accompanied the success of the major Italian companies\, have operated in crucial sectors of cultural life\, and their work has spanned the political\, economic and social changes of twentieth-century Italy in a significant way.

In this way the Museum intends to give an impulse for a reconnaissance and investigation of the territory which will be unique for the documentation of unknown or little-known artists whose quality is particularly significant. The program started with Luciano Secci.DM00001 DM01400 Catalog of existence. The great production of this surprising artist from Nurri is demonstrated by the use of different techniques\, from drawing to engraving\, from watercolor to ceramics\, which give us the image of a creativity in continuous evolution\, a thought that develops through a sign that identifies every fragment of life to analyze\, deepen and reveal it. A form of translating existence that passes from the mental image to drawing as an archive of thought displayed with over 370 works. The exhibition is created thanks to the generous contribution of the Secci family.

A unique event in Sardinia\, it includes 155 photographs that were chosen by the author himself\, with the intention of creating a comprehensive retrospective of his photographic work. The exhibition is like a long journey through the time of Henri Cartier-Bresson and his being present in every moment of existence; no one like him has been able to condense\, over the years of intense photographic and artistic activity around the world\, a precise and profound\, conscious and original observation in every situation. The documentary reality and Henri Cartier-Bresson’s propensity not to manipulate the gaze and the event he found in front of him\, finds its outlet in a profound poetry of everyday life\, of common gestures\, events and faces apparently unimportant. But whether they are street people – children playing\, street vendors\, passers-by – in the usual times of work and in the rituals of celebration\, or whether they are the protagonists of the main events of the twentieth century – the end of the Second World War\, the death of Gandhi\, the most famous artists of the moment – ​​every event is an opportunity for him to exercise inner awareness; an action and an exercise that condensed life into significant moments\, “decisive moments” that he – and only he – managed to grasp when he managed to “put the heart\, the mind and the eye on the same line of sight”. An exhibition that undermines the weaknesses\, the inconsistencies\, the distractions of our gaze today even too solicited by images that run fast; an exhibition that pays homage to the entire work of Henri Cartier-Bresson\, to drawing and painting which were his first true passions and which he was the first in the West to be able to share and articulate in a fullness where the relationship and use of the different means of expression are just a game\, useful for communicating with others.

The story of his journey starts from the end of the Thirties to the Nineties through a corpus of works\, collected according to an interpretation that highlights the modernity of his design to underline the importance and meaning of his choices and the uniqueness of his figure all over the world. within the international graphics panorama. Pintori was an extremely lucid character and aware of the mechanisms and problems connected to the profession of graphic designer in the choice of the compositional\, iconographic and symbolic devices used. \nHis competence\, his professionalism and his culture\, together with his imagination and creativity\, shine through in all his works and make us understand his relevance in the practice and aesthetics of contemporary design\, from the hypothesis of an original style of enterprise to a way of thinking before composing. Giovanni Pintori was born in 1912 in Tresnuraghes (Oristano)\, to parents originally from Nuoro\, a town where the family returned in 1918. After having attended the ISIA in Monza\, in 1936 he began collaborating with the Olivetti Advertising Technical Office\, of which he became responsible in 1940\, linking his name to the rise of the Ivrea company in a very long and successful series of posters\, pages advertising\, external signs\, stands. In 1950 he obtained the first of a long series of awards: the Palme d’Or from the Italian Advertising Federation. In 1952 the MoMA in New York organized the exhibition Olivetti: Design in Industry. \nIn 1953 he joined the AGI (Alliance Graphique Internazionale)\, which in 1955\, during the exhibition at the Louvre in Paris\, dedicated an entire room to Pintori’s work for Olivetti. Also in 1955 he was awarded the Certificate of Excellence of Graphic Arts by the AIGA (the Association of American Graphic Designers) and\, the following year\, the Gold Medal and the Diploma of First Prize in Graphic Line and the Fair of Milan. In 1957 he obtained the Grand Prix Diploma at the XI Triennale of Milan and participated in the annual AGI exhibition in London. His images accompany numerous articles on the Olivetti company\, his design and communication travel around the world\, appearing in newspapers such as Fortune (USA\, 1953\, 1957)\, Graphic Design (Japan\, 1967)\, Horizon (USA\, 1969) . In 1960 Adriano Olivetti passed away. In 1962 Pintori obtained another prestigious international recognition: the Typographic Excellence Award from the Type Directors Club of New York\, followed in 1964 by the Certificate of Merit from the Art Directors Club of New York. In 1966 a large solo exhibition was dedicated to him in Tokyo. \nAfter 1967\, having left Olivetti to dedicate himself to freelance work\, he collaborated\, among others\, on projects for Pirelli\, Gabbianelli\, Ambrosetti and Parchi Liguria. In 1981 he began a collaboration with the transport company Merzario\, for which he created the graphics for the annual budgets and advertising pages. After this experience he leaves the profession of graphic designer and dedicates himself completely to painting. Giovanni Pintori died in Milan on 15 November 1999.

In the rooms of the former ASL building in Via N. Ferracciu\, from 29 March to 17 July (first part) and then from 27 September to 5 February 2012 (second part) around a hundred artists from this city took turns proposing a selection of their most recent production\, which is why we consider it the beginning of an investigation into the creative richness of Nuoro which could be extended to the Province and\, in concentric circles\, to the entire Region\, making sure to record in Nuoro what again (with a happy play on words) it is produced by artists of different generations\, from the oldest masters to the very young novices. This is the vocation of the project\, built through a few pieces\, rigorously displayed to compose a game of references and resonances that tell stories like aphorisms or haikus. The title of the event\, ironically\, invites us to observe ourselves with a certain lightness. The best position for thinking seemed to some to be one that allows you to look at your navel and meditate on that. This type of meditation is called “navel gazing”. But the navel\, with its symbolism\, is once again a conceptual choice: it contains within itself the meaning of the bond\, of the origin but also represents the caesura capable of leaving a trace of itself\, the cutting of the umbilical cord which seals the memory and indelibly the sign that builds our identity. The navel is linked to the central position in the human body which suggests a psychic\, symbolic\, geographical\, temporal fulcrum: birth\, the beginning and the end\, becoming\, a sort of ever-present mandala with all that it entails and derives from it . L’ omphalon Greek identifies not so much a fixed point but a process that is activated from this point. It is the scar of physical birth\, the tangible sign of a bond with the biological mother\, it is linked to eros\, to aesthetics but also to vulnerability due to its being in the most exposed and soft position of the abdomen. It represents the mystery of the relationship that binds us in generation and across generations. The severed bond must continually be cut and sutured\, as the only possibility for growth. A bond that builds our identity\, but also establishes the one with existence. \n\n\n\nGlo Chronogram – Navel gazing\n\n\nSecond part\n\n27.09 – 09.10.2011: Michela Balloi\, Pasquale Bassu\, Efisio Cardia\, Laura Manca\, Salvatore Marras\, Francesco Melis\, Piero Pais\, Francesco Rais\, Graziano Rocchigiani.\n11.10 – 23.10.2011: Tarcisio Balloi\, Fabrizio Bruno\, Giancarlo Crisponi\, Toni Marcovecchio\, Stefano Marongiu\, Pietrina Mattana\, Franco Mura\, Fabrizio Ortu\, Sergio Rocchigiani.\n25.10 – 06.11.2011: Franca Carboni\, Simona Ciusa\, Salvatore de Gioannis\, Francesca Floris\, Marisa Mereu\, Giuseppe Moro\, Tiziana Pala\, Graziella and Immacolata Sotgiu\, Nicola Virdis.\n22.11 – 04.12.2011: Daniele Boninu\, Renato Brotzu\, Fiorentino Deroma\, Elke Hoyer\, Thomas Longo\, Sandro Mattei\, Daniela Mureddu\, Massimo Onnis\, Salvatore Pau.

The first deadline for submitting projects has been set for January 6\, 2012. At the end of the contest the material collected will be exhibited in the Glo space of the former ASL building.

The city as a center of perfect convergence between human microcosms becomes ideal only in a mental conception where space is placed at the service of man. A concept that has always been the subject of human reflection: the city\, a site to be designed and in which to live in harmony\, a place of social meeting\, political organization and economic planning. This image\, although it remains utopian in its general realization and lives\, perhaps\, in the memory of an unidentified past or in the idea of ​​a transformation in the future\, a suspended place of urban views\, interiors of buildings and suburbs within an ideal map. «The place is nothing outside the mind; physical greatness is nothing within the mind” (Hobbes) \, so that knowledge is ultimately available\, according to the mapping model\, of the relationship between the two maps\, internal and external. And precisely because the internal one corresponds to the imaginary space and prevails over the external one\, encompassing it\, the city is not just an architectural abstraction but a meeting place between two worlds.

The declination of the project involved a male and a female gaze with the six artists of different generations relating to the works of the Collection. \nThe artists are represented by the very young Rachele Sotgiu\, the solid Giusy Calia and the vigorous Zaza Calzia who pulverizes any doubts about her vision of the world\, while the artists are Graziano Salerno\, Vincenzo Pattusi and Vincenzo Grosso: a talented promise and two brilliant bets of this territory. The Collection is one of the most important testimonies of the growth\, evolution and constant commitment of the museum. A complex and difficult work\, made up of accelerations\, stasis and new impulses that define a continuously evolving path that does not end in the exaltation of some fixed points\, but which makes his singular research in the isolated artistic panorama an exclusive characteristic that gives space to lesser-known\, but no less interesting\, works and authors\, who\, thanks to the results of their journey\, provide a context of exquisite and unexpected richness. \nIn an attempt to redefine the perception of heritage and identity\, the MAN invited contemporary artists to an open dialogue\, creating suggestive spaces of suspension\, contemplation and short circuit\, real stations on a path that weaves together precise conversations with the masters of the history of art in Sardinia. The shared space invited reflection and at the same time offered as a whole an effective image of the quality of the different artistic languages. On this occasion the works that each artist chose functioned as a sort of punctuation of their speech\, a device that to some extent helped to define its meaning and rhythm. For the inauguration Giovanni Carroni read Graziano Salerno’s story The legend of the freed man .

The complexity that once again we want to restore here is just a simple underlining compared to the richness\, the overflowing abundance\, the infinite tide of combinations that is lavished on us simultaneously and simultaneously by the world\, in which coexistence and contamination between the angles appears easy of vision and gaze and the story through sound images that constitutes the architecture of the festival\, where the works of the artists of the exhibition Muc(h)ador they fit happily into the evocative scenery of the Parco dei Suoni di Riola\, a place of alienating suspended beauty that has never been sufficiently celebrated. \nThe theme and the game of references in the title find close and distant assonances\, moving from the center of the Mediterranean to the Middle East\, still saying the bonds that culture never stops weaving through time and people\, still saying that the same culture spreads a veil that we have to lift aside to see the thing in itself\, the naked thing\, the nudity. A seeing without mediation\, a direct confrontation with ourselves and our perception\, without frills\, without deception\, without seduction\, raw\, to suddenly discover the intimate necessity of the secret\, of the mystery\, of the unattainable\, of the propulsive and subversive force of desire and prohibition. Muc(h)ador it is an invented term\, an Arabic-Sardo-Catalan linguistic hybridism\, an in vitro contamination\, a forced cross-breeding\, certainly ironic\, but not irreverent towards cultures and traditions which – with chador Islamic and with on muccadori Sardinian – have their roots in ancient and still very much experienced rituals. And yet\, precisely in order not to fall into insidious traps of an etymological and/or ethnographic nature\, the six artists skilfully avoid them\, avoiding direct references to anything that in some way could recall demo-anthropological situations that are completely inappropriate with respect to the horizons of contemporary artistic research. \nThat veil\, that headdress-garment\, so symbolic and icastically coercive\, is torn\, crossed\, overcome\, in search of a much more allusive and oblique dimension. Micro and macro stories that transform it into a limit\, into a hypnotic and founding ritual\, into pain and illness\, into oppression and a claustrophobic prison\, into a simple support\, into that sensation of mysterious absence\, both looming and evanescent\, that art can only evoke \, do not represent.

After the great success of visitors and critics achieved by the art exhibition held at the Masedu Museum in Sassari\, Nuoro hosted an in-depth study of the works of two artists from the Sardinia Biennale\, Gabriella Locci and Giovanna Secchi\, selected by the technical jury\, chaired by Vittorio Sgarbi and composed of the director of the Academy Antonio Bisaccia\, the director of MAN Cristiana Collu\, Giovanni Follesa consultant of the culture department and Ada Lai consultant of the Tourism Department. The two artists present in the Sassari pavilion exhibited a rich collection of their works at the MAN Museum. By will of the Sardinia Region\, the Academy of Fine Arts of Sassari was the beating heart of the organization of this great exhibition spread across the regional territory and promoted on the occasion of the 150 years of the Unification of Italy\, proving to be an indispensable key for the development of the island’s artistic and cultural industry. \nGabriella Locci is engaged in experimentation and research in the visual arts and in the sector of engraving languages. From 1992 to 1997 she was a teacher and head of the laboratory Engraving and Printing Techniques at the European Institute of Design in Cagliari. He is president of Casa Falconieri which has been promoting engraving workshops since 2000. In 2001 she was invited to Romania by the Ministry of Culture as an artist in residence. In 2008 he held an experimental Taller de grabado at the Faculty of Fine Arts of Cuenca\, for INGRAFICA. In 2009 he taught a workshop on aditive techniques for the Goya-Fuendetodos Consortium. In 2010 he won the critics’ award for best work by a living artist in Estampa\, Madrid. In 2011 she was invited as Artist en residence at the Center d’Art Contemporain d’Essaouira in Morocco. \nGiovanna Secchi\, born in Olbia in 1939\, trained at the State Art Institute of Sassari\, the city where she lives and works. In the 1960s he was part of the “Gruppo A” around the figure of Mauro Manca and in 1976 of the “La rosa” group\, led by Marc to more conceptual. She worked on design for her island’s crafts (carpets\, corks) and painting on fabric for clothing. Since 2001 he has participated in the exhibitions of Print with Falconieri House \, directed by Gabriella Locci. He has numerous and constant participations in shows and exhibitions in Italy and abroad to his credit.

Airport ar Away so Close / So far\, so close is the title of Vincenzo Pattusi’s work which marks the debut and seals an agreement between Geasar and the MAN Museum\, in the belief that art\, with its pervasiveness\, is increasingly part of our lives\, more than ever outside from the confines of its place par excellence\, the museum\, and outside the clichés\, understood both in a physical and figurative sense. In this sense the airport is no longer seen as a “non-place” but as a place in common\, as the center of a community in transit that inhabits it even if for a few minutes or a few hours. \nThe project measures focus\, the ability of our gaze to distinguish but also to confuse\, to concentrate on different aspects of a reality that is always variable and complex. He invites us to decide\, to choose\, perhaps just to prefer. It measures our changing interest in the foreground or background\, guides us to discover a detail or simply summarizes by preserving the memory of a place for an instant or forever. Nothing is thrown away\, least of all the past that belongs to us as well as the future we dream of . \nThis collaboration is the culmination of a process that began last year\, with our first contacts to create a new mode of communication in our terminal\, and also represents a starting point for the development of partnerships that bring the airport world closer to other quality circuits. Geasar has made a large showcase available to fill it with content and allow the circulation of ideas and new visions also through art. Geasar began its exhibition activity with the project Art Port Gallery\, which saw the birth of the museum space in April 2010 with the first exhibition dedicated to archeology in collaboration with the Superintendence for archaeological heritage for the Provinces of Sassari and Nuoro: exceptionally exposed the fragment of a cogwheel attributed to the Planetarium of Archimedes and the funerary objects composed of table ceramics coming from the subsoil of the city of Olbia and referable to ancient history. A few months later he was born Art – Port Corner \, which in this month of May has reached its eleventh exhibition of works by Sardinian artists. The wall that welcomes them is inserted inside the self-service and has the aim of stimulating the visual sensations of customers sitting at the Kara Food . The last section\, perhaps the most relevant in terms of size and prestige\, is the Art Port Wall signed in his first exhibition by the MAN Museum. The exhibition consists of six reproductions\, printed on canvas\, belonging to the figurative production of Vincenzo Pattusi. The works are displayed on frames located in the central hall and reach a length of one hundred and thirty linear metres. An impressive exhibition with an entirely Sardinian background represented by the repeated motifs of the Sardinian carpet. The subjects in the foreground\, however\, are particularly captivating and look at the passengers in motion. The work Far Away\, so Close/So far\, so close it forces us to reflect on what we are and on the variability\, differences or distances that the cultural stratifications that characterize each individual can produce. \n\n\n\nVincenzo Pattusi\n\n\nVincenzo Pattusi lives and works in Nuoro. He is 33 years old and\, after graduating in Art History and a master’s degree in Conservation and Restoration\, he began his collaboration with the MAN Museum\, taking care of the educational workshops and taking care of the exhibitions. At the same time he follows his artistic passion\, which began on the streets together with writers\, producing personal exhibitions and participating in group exhibitions in Sardinian and Italian art galleries. Among his latest exhibitions he catalogs the exhibition of illustrations created to celebrate “Sa die de sa Sardigna” at Palazzo Regio in Cagliari and the collective “Le roots in sky” in Sassari. In 2011 he participated in the 54th Venice Biennale – Sardinia Region.

Nelle sale dell’edificio dell’ex ASL di Via N. Ferracciu\, dal 29 marzo al 17 luglio (prima parte) e poi dal 27 settembre al 05 febbraio 2012 (seconda parte) circa un centinaio di artisti di questa città si sono alternati proponendo una selezione della loro più recente produzione\, per questo che consideriamo come l’inizio di un’indagine sulla ricchezza creativa di Nuoro che potrebbe allargarsi alla Provincia e\, per cerchi concentrici\, a tutta la Regione\, facendo in modo di registrare a Nuoro ciò che di nuovo (con un felice gioco di parole) viene prodotto da artisti di diverse generazioni\, dai maestri più anziani ai giovanissimi alle prime armi. Questa la vocazione del progetto\, costruito attraverso pochi pezzi\, esposti con rigore a comporre un gioco di rimandi e risonanze che raccontino storie come aforismi o haiku. Il titolo dell’evento\, ironicamente\, invita a osservarsi con una certa leggerezza. La posizione migliore per pensare è sembrata ad alcuni quella che permette di guardare il proprio ombelico\, e meditare su quello. Questo tipo di meditazione prende il nome di “guardarsi l’ombelico”. Ma l’ombelico\, con la sua simbologia\, è ancora una volta una scelta concettuale: racchiude in sé il significato del legame\, dell’origine ma rappresenta anche la cesura capace di lasciar traccia di sé\, il taglio del cordone ombelicale che suggella a memoria e in modo indelebile il segno che costruisce la nostra identità. L’ombelico è legato alla posizione centrale nel corpo umano che suggerisce un fulcro psichico\, simbolico\, geografico\, temporale: la nascita\, l’inizio e la fine\, il divenire\, una sorta di mandala sempre attuale con tutto quello che comporta e ne deriva. L’omphalon greco identifica non tanto un punto fisso ma un processo che da questo punto si attiva. È la cicatrice della nascita fisica\, il segno tangibile di un vincolo con la madre biologica\, è legato all’eros\, all’estetica ma anche alla vulnerabilità per il suo trovarsi nella posizione più esposta e molle dell’addome. Rappresenta il mistero del rapporto che ci lega nella generazione e attraverso le generazioni. Il legame reciso e continuamente da recidere e suturare\, come sola possibilità di crescita. Un legame che costruisce la nostra identità\, ma sancisce anche quello con l’esistenza. \n\n\n\nCronogramma di Glo – Guardarsi l’ombelico\n\n\nPrima Parte\n\n29.03 – 10.04.2011: Mario Adolfi\, Enrik Ciensi\, Gino Frogheri\, Sirio Sini.\n12.04 – 24.04.2011: Francesco Alpigiano\, Nietta Condemi\, Pietro Costa\, Barbara Flore\, Giovanni Pisanu\, Rosaura Sanna.\n26.04 – 08.05.2011: Fabiana e Susan Canova\, Gianni Casagrande\, Francesca Cossellu\, Gigi Murru\, Gianni Pais\, Angela Salerno\, Sebastiano Sanna.\n10.05 – 22.05.2011: Costantino Caiafa\, Antonia Dettori\, Massimiliano Fois\, Roberta Luche\, Marzia Masala\, Laura Puggioni\, Antonio Serra\, Giudo Sotgiu.\n24.05 – 05.06.2011: Francesco Brotzu\, Nicolina Carta\, Giovanni Coronas\, Maria Carmela Folchetti\, Pietro Longu\, Elio Moncelsi\, Pinuccia Mulas\, Graziano Piras.\n14.06 – 26.06.2011: Nevina Ciusa\, Giulio Concu\, Assunta Cucca\, Franco Sedda\, Rosetta Murru\, Tonino Vargiu\, Salvatore Zizzi.\n28.06 – 10.07.2011: Vittorio Bruno\, Giovanni Antonio Deledda\, Beatriz Nelida Dietzel\, Gaspare Guccini\, Martha Mendoza\, Valeria Muledda\, Caterina Pirisi.

In the rooms of the former ASL building in Via N. Ferracciu\, from 29 March to 17 July (first part) and then from 27 September to 5 February 2012 (second part) around a hundred artists from this city took turns proposing a selection of their most recent production\, which is why we consider it the beginning of an investigation into the creative richness of Nuoro which could be extended to the Province and\, in concentric circles\, to the entire Region\, making sure to record in Nuoro what again (with a happy play on words) it is produced by artists of different generations\, from the oldest masters to the very young novices. This is the vocation of the project\, built through a few pieces\, rigorously displayed to compose a game of references and resonances that tell stories like aphorisms or haikus. The title of the event\, ironically\, invites us to observe ourselves with a certain lightness. The best position for thinking seemed to some to be one that allows you to look at your navel and meditate on that. This type of meditation is called “navel gazing”. But the navel\, with its symbolism\, is once again a conceptual choice: it contains within itself the meaning of the bond\, of the origin but also represents the caesura capable of leaving a trace of itself\, the cutting of the umbilical cord which seals the memory and indelibly the sign that builds our identity. The navel is linked to the central position in the human body which suggests a psychic\, symbolic\, geographical\, temporal fulcrum: birth\, the beginning and the end\, becoming\, a sort of ever-present mandala with all that it entails and derives from it . L’ omphalon Greek identifies not so much a fixed point but a process that is activated from this point. It is the scar of physical birth\, the tangible sign of a bond with the biological mother\, it is linked to eros\, to aesthetics but also to vulnerability due to its being in the most exposed and soft position of the abdomen. It represents the mystery of the relationship that binds us in generation and across generations. The severed bond must continually be cut and sutured\, as the only possibility for growth. A bond that builds our identity\, but also establishes the one with existence. \n\n\n\nGlo Chronogram – Navel gazing\n\n\nFirst part\n\n29.03 – 10.04.2011: Mario Adolfi\, Enrik Ciensi\, Gino Frogheri\, Sirio Sini.\n12.04 – 24.04.2011: Francesco Alpigiano\, Nietta Condemi\, Pietro Costa\, Barbara Flore\, Giovanni Pisanu\, Rosaura Sanna.\n26.04 – 08.05.2011: Fabiana and Susan Canova\, Gianni Casagrande\, Francesca Cossellu\, Gigi Murru\, Gianni Pais\, Angela Salerno\, Sebastiano Sanna.\n10.05 – 22.05.2011: Costantino Caiafa\, Antonia Dettori\, Massimiliano Fois\, Roberta Luche\, Marzia Masala\, Laura Puggioni\, Antonio Serra\, Giudo Sotgiu.\n24.05 – 05.06.2011: Francesco Brotzu\, Nicolina Carta\, Giovanni Coronas\, Maria Carmela Folchetti\, Pietro Longu\, Elio Moncelsi\, Pinuccia Mulas\, Graziano Piras.\n14.06 – 26.06.2011: Nevina Ciusa\, Giulio Concu\, Assunta Cucca\, Franco Sedda\, Rosetta Murru\, Tonino Vargiu\, Salvatore Zizzi.\n28.06 – 10.07.2011: Vittorio Bruno\, Giovanni Antonio Deledda\, Beatriz Nelida Dietzel\, Gaspare Guccini\, Martha Mendoza\, Valeria Muledda\, Caterina Pirisi.

So articulated that it will be proposed at the MAN in two subsequent “episodes”: the first\, entitled “The spirit of Aboriginal art” can be admired from 11 February to 1 May 2011. It will be followed\, from 6 May to 28 August\, by the second part entitled “Archaism and abstraction. The language of Aboriginal art”. \nFrom February 11th to August 28th therefore\, Aboriginal art will “contaminate” Sardinia\, in a game of rebounds which\, starting from the MAN\, will ideally reverberate to the archaeological sites and ethnographic museums of the island. \nThe project makes use of the highest institutional collaborations on the Italian and Australian side and has as its “quality guarantor” the Koorie Heritage Trust\, the only internationally recognized body for the valorization and study of Aboriginal cultures. \n“For DREAMTIME\, the curators underline\, the KHT directly selected the works\, thus certifying their provenance. All the essays intended for the Marsilio catalog were written by KHT experts and certified from an anthropological\, social and cultural point of view: a guarantee never before offered for any international exhibition. It should be highlighted that what will arrive in Sardinia will be the largest collection of Aboriginal works that has ever left Australia\, works that cover a vast area from the State of Victoria to Queensland\, a provenance that allows us to show the profound differences between cultural groups ”. \nIf only for this reason\, DREAMTIME would enjoy the character of exceptionality among the exhibitions dedicated to Aboriginal culture outside the southern continent. But what will certainly fascinate the Italian public the most will be the originality of the expressive language\, the hypnotic colours\, the archetypes that have continued unchanged for 40 thousand years\, from the Time of Dreams to today. \nThe exhibition includes renowned artists such as Clifford Possum\, John and Luke Cummins\, Trevor Turbo Brown\, Craig Charles and emerging artists who are establishing themselves on the international scene. This selection authentically presents contemporary Aboriginal art in its current state of evolution and does not provide a static vision of the stereotypes that are often attributed to these cultures. \n“It is a sort of childhood of history – underlines Cristiana Collu – which brings the contemporary\, the present time closer to our roots\, with a strong push towards discovery\, creation\, invention\, respect\, recognition and finally the sense of belonging to places that have shaped and shape our vision of the world. \nThe painting of the first civilizations is perhaps the most fascinating artistic expression for today’s viewer. In addition to the human figure\, she is in fact able to tell us something about her relationship with the environment that surrounds her and conditions her: her peers\, animals\, nature. And it does so in the formal language characteristic of each culture and above all\, suggestively\, with colours. The second stage in the genesis of figurative art\, a reflection of mental creations\, occurred when man began to translate his own inner reality into graphic expression. Art was certainly born from an intellectual need just as\, some time before\, the tool appeared for a vital (existential) need\, and since the human being is both biological and social\, the use of the image has since ensured the cohesion of the two aspects and ultimately a certain public and collective cohesion. \nThe iconographic strength of the works on display\, the primitive and archaic symbolism\, determine a series of analogies with the primitive\, archaeological\, traditional and identity-based Sardinian culture\, creating a great play of references and resonances which from the apparently other as the art coming from a continent at the antipodes (which however has always had a condition of insularity\, not only geographically) brings us back to the evidence and riches of the territory we inhabit”. \nThe exhibition is a project of the MAN_Museo d’Arte della Provincia di Nuoro\, in collaboration and with the patronage of the Sardinia Region\, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs\, the Italian Embassy in Canberra\, the Australian Embassy in Rome\, the Italian Institute of Culture\, the Consulate of Melbourne.

The reflection\, which occurs through the use of the languages ​​of photography\, performance\, video and installation\, opens up a series of questions and doubts\, starting from their specific sensations and cultural roots\, which lead to the possibility of a different vision of the world that can\, and perhaps should be\, even as I imagine it. \n\n\n\nCristian Chironi\n\n\nCristian Chironi was born in Nuoro in 1974. Visual artist and performer active since 1998\, he lives and works between the Province of Nuoro and Bologna. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna. He is interested in different languages\, including performance\, photography\, video\, drawing\, public art and site-specific operations\, seeking an integration of genres. His research aims to relate a plurality of concepts\, such as reality and fiction\, memory and contemporaneity\, figure and image\, two-dimensional and three-dimensional\, conflict and integration. \n\n\n\nPaolo Meoni\n\n\nPaolo Meoni was born in Prato in 1967\, where he lives and works. His research arises from frequenting the space of everyday life\, but his vision overturns the ordinary\, seeking internal novelty through the continuous deconstruction of the same space taken at different times. There are different perspectives that open up in his works\, stratified like the different levels of a photomontage. \n\n\n\nRachele Sotgiu\n\n\nRachele Sotgiu was born in 1984 in Nuoro\, where she lives and works. Rachele is a young artist who\, using different languages\, moves with ease from photography to video\, from drawing to installation\, analyzing everyday objects and gestures with refined refinement.In 2008 he presented a personal exhibition\, curated by MAN\, at the Peppetto Pau museum in Nurachi entitled “The contravened limit” on the occasion of the exhibition Clandestine (Dromos 2009).

Che questa bellezza e questa ironia ci colga ogni volta nel bel mezzo di qualsiasi situazione della nostra vita.

There are those who have done it by shooting with the brush Frames with horizon (Garau) and those who have held Black Suns with the camera (Delogu)\, everyone has drawn up a Mitjariga (Nieddu)\, a half line\, a very permeable watershed between a before and after that perhaps does not exist in inexorable and silent transformations. \nFor this reason\, with the six artists we shared the irony that we should all have when they ask us to make a budget that does not take into account the future\, that next moment that we\, at least we\, would not want to miss. May this beauty and this irony catch us every time in the midst of any situation in our lives.
