MILAN.- A arte invernizzi announced the participation of Michel Verjux in the new edition of the region-wide exhibition Panorama Monferrato.
From 4 to 8 September, Panorama Monferrato, the fourth edition of the region-wide exhibition conceived by ITALICS an institutional network that brings together more than 70 galleries of ancient, modern and contemporary art presents a cross-section of art history from the 2nd century to the present day. Since 2021, this annual event has been strengthening the bonds between architecture, art, landscape and local territories and their communities.
The exhibition curated by Carlo Falciani is inspired by the principles of La civil conversazione a work written by Stefano Guazzo (born in Casale Monferrato in 1530) and published in 1574. Winding through vineyards, castles and churches, the exhibition is like a journey in stages through the towns of Camagna, Vignale, Montemagno and Castagnole, creating an original narrative that brings together the ancient, the modern and the contemporary. Once again, it explores an extraordinary corner of Italy.
Panorama Monferrato is a journey to be taken slowly, a metaphor for the path of meditation. In the same way that Guazzo used his storys characters to show how a community could only thrive if it was capable of cultivating a civil conversation, resolving conflicts through dialogue, the center of the ethical development of man and society, so the contemporary visitor to Panorama also embarks on a reflective journey, starting with daily conflicts to end with a level of spirituality, also secular, favored by art.
Like the various chapters of a story, in each town, the works of the artists involved are used to develop a theme that spans the eras, thus completing the journey.
In Camagna the theme of Lavoro e radici [Labor and Roots] is explored, deepening the concept of labor as the root of gestures and sacrifice, but also as an expression of the local land. These works focus on the dual agricultural and industrial souls of many places that, like Monferrato, have experienced radical transformations.
In Vignale, the theme of Ritratto e identità [Portrait and Identity] is explored. This type of work lends itself to expressing and capturing the identity of a person or a community as a moment in history.
In Montemagno, the theme of Caducità e morte [Transience and Death] shows how, since the Renaissance, the awareness of death has been constantly present in representations of initiatory journeys.
Finally, in Castagnole, the theme of Sacralità dellarte, anche laica [Sacredness of Art, including Secular Art] exalts the possibility of removing oneself from everyday life in favor of contemplation.
With the participation of 61 of the galleries that make up ITALICS and with artistic masterpieces that span the eras, Panorama Monferrato connects art, territory and community in the provinces of Alessandria and Asti up to the foot of the Ligurian Apennines, between the Langhe, the Roero and the Lombard Lomellina: a landscape of hills where the land and rural tradition make up a unique heritage of culture, history and traditions recognized by UNESCO. This is a land to be explored slowly, through artistic itineraries ranging from the Romanesque to the contemporary, with site-specific installations and public art, which make it a multi-venue open-air museum.
