The exhibition AFTER/DOPO, curated by Giovanna Calvenzi, originates from the desire to provide a portrait of Val di Sella after it was hit by the Vaia storm in 2018.
In the following two years, the artists Olivio Barbieri, Giacomo Bianchi, Luca Campigotto, Paola De Pietri, Giovanni Hänninen, Martino Marangoni, Paolo Pellegrin, Moira Ricci, Alessandro Scotti e Massimo Vitali have been invited by Arte Sella to give a personal interpretation of this severe climate event.
The exhibition features the graphics by Clare Lillingston and the narrative by Alberto Amoretti, that empower the photographic tale in documenting such a critical change. The final result is a meaningful witness of a dismaying occurrence, a reminder of how our environment can be destroyed at any moment.
La mostra AFTER/DOPO, curata da Giovanna Calvenzi, nasce dalla volontà di indagare la Val di Sella a seguito della distruzione causata dalla tempesta Vaia nel 2018.
Nel corso del 2019 e del 2020, gli artisti Olivo Barbieri, Giacomo Bianchi, Luca Campigotto, Paola De Pietri, Giovanni Hänninen, Martino Marangoni, Paolo Pellegrin, Moira Ricci, Alessandro Scotti e Massimo Vitali sono stati invitati da Arte Sella per documentare, con uno sguardo personale, le conseguenze di questo evento.
L’esposizione, attraverso la narrazione fotografica, arricchita dall’intervento grafico di Clare Lillingston e dal racconto di Alberto Amoretti, documenta una realtà ambientale mutata e dà senso a un evento che ci ha lasciati basiti, ricordando come in un brevissimo lasso di tempo si sia distrutto un mondo che ci apparteneva.
