Paolo Naldini, Cittadellarte looks back at 2022: “Art, the most radical form of research, is a human right” What have we learnt in the past year? What is the balance for 2022? In a game of mirrors between past, present and future, in our interview Paolo Naldini, director of Cittadellarte, touched on some of the key elements and themes of Fondazione Pistoletto, including Accademia Unidee ("We are a community of practice. If the mirror is at the centre of Cittadellarte, it is precisely because it is a tool for research, speculation and reflection"), Biella Città Arcipelago ("Biella as Working Site of the Opera Demopratica has courageously identified an ambitious project: the infrastructure of life on the planet, a subject considered obscene for too long") and Biella Creative City ("We have reached a dynamic balance, in fact, with the proposal of an operating director for the association who also performs functions as UNESCO focal point"). Retracing some of the stages of Cittadellarte's 2022, let us explore some fundamental themes for the individual and the community as a whole. BY Luca Deias IL 01/01/2023 Leggi di più
