BOLZANO, ITALY.- TO ACTUALITY side-steps mediated forms of representation to explore the possibility of art as an actuality within contemporary urban experience. The artworks which take place in various indoor and outdoor locations throughout the city of Bozen (ca. 100.000 inhabitants), closely relate to social, cultural and political situations in the city.

TO ACTUALITY provides novel ways to experience art as a proactive relevance. To reach communicational power, the participating artists search out alternate possibilities for art that exists next to – but also beyond – retinal, aesthetic and textual premises. The artworks strengthen the bond between art and life, reminding us of that we have art so that we do not perish from reality. The exhibition TO ACTUALITY is on view through July 31, 2002. A project curated by Maia Damianovic and organised by the AR/GE Kunst Galerie Museum in Bozen/Bolzano.
