From an idea by Antonio d’Antonio and Alfonso Caccavale, the Cultural Association Kunst Grenzen – Arte di Frontiera aps in collaboration with Lamberto Caravita proposes a national and international exhibition in Rovere’ della Luna in Trentino, entitled: “RotoloArt – Arte in Viaggio” (RotoloArt – Art travelling).
The traveling exhibition has already passed its first stage in Massa Lombarda at the prestigious Venturini Cultural Center under the direction of the artist Lamberto Caravita, receiving a warm welcome also from authorities such as Elisa Fiori, Councilor for Culture of the Municipality of Massa Lombarda:
“The Venturini Cultural Center is the perfect setting for the first stage of this exciting project capable of bringing together in a completely unexpected and engaging way 81 artists from different parts of Italy, with different personalities and visions and who, with these works of theirs , they manage to tell us how art and travel are strongly connected experiences.”
From 2 to 31 March 2024 “RotoloArt – Arte in Viaggio” (RotoloArt – Art travelling) will be on display at the private gallery Kunst Grenzen-Arte di frontier in Rovere’ della Luna under the care of the artist and President Kunst Grenzen Gentile Polo in collaboration with Lamberto Caravita, Municipality and Pro Loco of Rovere’ della Luna, Cassa Rurale Val di Non Rotaliana and Giovo – RdL branch, and the patronage of the Municipality of Massa Lombarda, of the cultural association Museo Minimo and of the Order of Architects, Planners and Conservators of Naples and the Province.
At each new stage the exhibition is enriched with new works created by artists from Trentino and beyond, so as to increase the – journey – of the mind and of Art.
Travel as an experience to be done together, to be shared for fun and learning: by traveling we discover new worlds, we share experiences that enrich us as happens with Art.
Bruce Chatwin, the great traveler, wrote:
“Travel not only broadens the mind, it gives it shape”
And this is what the artists try to do, give shape to an idea to be traced on a simple roll of wrapping paper, the very symbol of the shipment, of a message from a sender to a recipient and therefore of the journey undertaken to reach the destination. ‘objective.
Following the public call for participation, each artist elaborates on this support the theme of – travel – freely, and with the technique or techniques most congenial to him.
Each stage curator will try to give these works an unusual idea of exhibition, an unusual perspective precisely to give the sense of the journey, but which allows an immediate overall vision of the entire project.
