This catalogue for an exhibition at MAXXI Museum in Rome brings
together 50 contemporary artists from ex-Yugoslavia whose work
explores the history of the region through the action of
contemporary heroes, and reflects on issues of acceptance and
peaceful coexistence. In thematic sections (Liberty, Equality,
Fraternity, Hope, Risk, the Individual, Otherness, Metamorphosis),
the show asks if the legacy of Socialism can help to recover the
concept of "common good" in a complex region which has recently
endured the tragedy of a civil war and the rise of Nationalism.
Text in English and Italian.
This volume is one of three companion catalogues to an exhibition
taking place simultaneously at three venues in Rome on the
large-scale projects of Pier Paolo Pasolini. They explore a theme
dear to Pasolini - sacredness - with a multidisciplinary approach
that will shed a light on his main characteristics as a poet,
writer, director, and artist and on the cultural influence he
wielded. This is the catalogue for the exhibition at Fondazione
MAXXI, which explores the many facets of Pasolini's political
engagement. Texts, images, movies, notes, and documents will
narrate the beginning of a protest that has endured to this day,
with interpretations of Pasolini's work is seen through the voices
of contemporary artists. An essay by Anne Violaine Houcke analyses
Pasolini's final period, while Ara Merjan's text explores his
aesthetics. Marco Belpoliti explores the 1975 timeline, giving
special attention to the political events most closely connected to
Pasolini. Incudes contributions by Eleonora Cardinale, Roberto
Chiesi, Silvia De Laude, Fabio Francione, Giuseppe Garrera, and
Vincenzo Trione. Text in English and Italian.
