  • VENICE, ITALY - 9 MAY 2019: "Il Pozzo di San Patrizio" (2001) by Liliana Moro is seen here in the exhibition "Neither Nor: The challenge to the Labyrinth", curated by Milovan Farronato, at the Italian Pavilion during the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in Venice, Italy, on May 9th 2019.<br />
<br />
"Neither Nor: The challenge to the Labyrinth" is the title of the exhibition, curated by Milovan Farronato for the Italian Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in which three Italian artists are taking part, presenting completely new works along with ones from the past: Enrico David (Ancona, 1966), Chiara Fumai (Rome, 1978 – Bari, 2017) and Liliana Moro (Milan, 1961).  The subtitle of the project alludes to “La sfida al labirinto” (“The Challenge to the Labyrinth”) a seminal essay written by Italo Calvino in 1962 that has been the inspiration for Neither Nor. In this text the author proposes a cultural work open to all possible languages and that feels itself co-responsible in the construction of a world which, having lost its traditional points of reference, no longer asks to be merely represented. To visualize the intricate forms of contemporary reality, Calvino turns to the vivid metaphor of the labyrinth: an apparent maze of lines and tendencies that is in reality constructed on the basis of strict rules. <br />

<br />
Over the previous three decades, Praiano had grown as part of the tourism boom of nearby Positano and the Amalfi Coast in general, but it had never developed its own identity or tried to shape its future. It is now trying to muscle in on the fame of better-known tourist drawn towns like Positano, Ravello and Amalfi, by positioning itself as an open-air museum. On Saturday, the town unveiled eight tourist itineraries, tracking the town’s traditional small religious shrine made of majolica tiles, augmented with the works of eight contemporary artists.<br />
<br />
These shrines were built all over town to protect the Praianesi and their homes. The artists were asked to draw inspiration from the past or the local values and traditions and to revitalize and reinforce the concept of "street art" typical of the traditional shrines. The artists were also asked to create ceramic installations that would enhance and enrich the natural landscape. Their installations were not supposed to alter the nature and the local “people’s architecture”, but rather to enrich them in harmonious and elegant ways.<br />
<br />
The Praiano NaturArte Project consists of eight art itineraries. Seven of them have ceramic works (ceramic is a traditional medium in the area) and are made by some of the best and most well-known artists in the area.

<br />
"Neither Nor: The challenge to the Labyrinth" is the title of the exhibition, curated by Milovan Farronato for the Italian Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in which three Italian artists are taking part, presenting completely new works along with ones from the past: Enrico David (Ancona, 1966), Chiara Fumai (Rome, 1978 – Bari, 2017) and Liliana Moro (Milan, 1961).  The subtitle of the project alludes to “La sfida al labirinto” (“The Challenge to the Labyrinth”) a seminal essay written by Italo Calvino in 1962 that has been the inspiration for Neither Nor. In this text the author proposes a cultural work open to all possible languages and that feels itself co-responsible in the construction of a world which, having lost its traditional points of reference, no longer asks to be merely represented. To visualize the intricate forms of contemporary reality, Calvino turns to the vivid metaphor of the labyrinth: an apparent maze of lines and tendencies that is in reality constructed on the basis of strict rules. <br />

  • VENICE, ITALY - 9 MAY 2019: "Racket II" (2017) by Enrico David is seen here in the exhibition "Neither Nor: The challenge to the Labyrinth", curated by Milovan Farronato, at the Italian Pavilion during the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in Venice, Italy, on May 9th 2019.<br />
<br />
"Neither Nor: The challenge to the Labyrinth" is the title of the exhibition, curated by Milovan Farronato for the Italian Pavilion at the 58th International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia in which three Italian artists are taking part, presenting completely new works along with ones from the past: Enrico David (Ancona, 1966), Chiara Fumai (Rome, 1978 – Bari, 2017) and Liliana Moro (Milan, 1961).  The subtitle of the project alludes to “La sfida al labirinto” (“The Challenge to the Labyrinth”) a seminal essay written by Italo Calvino in 1962 that has been the inspiration for Neither Nor. In this text the author proposes a cultural work open to all possible languages and that feels itself co-responsible in the construction of a world which, having lost its traditional points of reference, no longer asks to be merely represented. To visualize the intricate forms of contemporary reality, Calvino turns to the vivid metaphor of the labyrinth: an apparent maze of lines and tendencies that is in reality constructed on the basis of strict rules. <br />
