Curated by Antonio Manfredi
Until March 30, 2011 at the Museum CAM
The event is the ironic greeting and aware of 60 artists Neapolitans through a production that is witness to fifty years of history of Naples.
The challenge that part of the CAM is the reflection on the social context in which they function and operate, the Neapolitan artists. Half a century of excellence and dramas, a patchwork of environmental factors flanked by representations of banal tragedies mark the history and the contemporary nature of Naples.
Pizza like the Camorra, Maradona as the garbage, urban guerrilla warfare as the streets of the cribs, the business center such as cholera, the stations of art like the sails of Scampia, inconsistencies, conflicts and clichés that are the stereotypical image of a city.
overcoming these barriers to function context, the challenge was that the artists have agreed, is the fertile ground from which it drew.
Stockholm and Naples is not "is not Casoria Sondrio," but it is no coincidence that Giorgio Gaber opened a show saying, "You would not expect ... fertile ground for individual creativity .... where the main color is a gray pregnant and still .... "
CAM sports through a new production, the recent acquisitions that add to the already substantial collection. The works of artists historicized will talk in the halls of CAM with those of young Neapolitans in a crucible International.
The room housing the works of the Neapolitan December 19 will be entitled to the art historian, who died recently, Vitaliano Corbi.
supporter of the Neapolitan art studies after World War II onwards, Corbi has always advocated the importance of the expression and production of Neapolitan art is not linked to the market. Particular emphasis was put by the writer to the concept of museum, whose activity is not limited only to the exhibition, will be able unfold through a systematic research, study and documentation. " Equally strong was his interest in the young artists of today and tomorrow, when a commitment to ethical and aesthetic, to the appreciation of diversity, beyond standard uniformity.
According to reports by Antonio Manfredi, director of the CAM and promoter of the initiative: "The death of a friend and a great name for the Italian critics to leave a huge void. It seemed only right to dedicate Vitaliano Corbi the room in which they collected the works of artists from Naples on the developments in and whose value has been busy writing and studying. I am sure that his philosophy is that winning, not by chance that those museums IKEA, without an identity and a characterization, a bit 'all the same, which often avoid dealing with local history and social issues, in the end fail ".
