""This show feels very appropriate for the time we are living in," says Leonardo Bigazzi, the curator of the nomadic Fondazione In Between Art Film, which has commissioned eight new site-specific films for the exhibition."
"The third show will be 'radically different', notes Alessandro Rabottini, the artistic director of the foundation, 'because it is about hyper stimulation of the senses and being plunged into an excess of things.'"
"To commission is to take a position; it means believing that artists can offer tools to navigate uncertainty, not by providing answers, but by reshaping the way we see."
The exhibition Canicula, opening on May 6, reflects the current era of excess and saturation, showcasing eight new site-specific films. Curator Leonardo Bigazzi emphasizes its relevance to today's societal challenges. Previous exhibitions in the Trilogy of Uncertainties have aligned with significant global events, such as the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the tragedy in Israel. The third show focuses on sensory overload and the impact of hyper-stimulation, while addressing political and social issues through the lens of art, as stated by costume designer Beatrice Bulgari.
