“Hearts for the Earth”, when children’s art breaks down the barriers of the pandemic
The Rebirth/Third Paradise ambassadress and ambassador Savina Tarsitano and Takuya Kaneda started and curated the ethical initiative that led to the creation, in Nikko, of a big canvas composed of the works of children from Cuba, Italy, Nepal, Florida and Belgium. “In this period,” the two curators said, “being united has become a necessity and a duty, and the project, from this point of view, managed to bring together youths and communities from all over the world with a simple heart, going across boundaries and travelling with the imagination”.

The Art of Balance #97 | Fabio Bortolussi, what will you wear?
Fabio Bortolussi, one of the artistic directors of the festival Sexto ‘Nplugged, is the 97th participant in the initiative “The Art of Balance / Pandemopraxy”, launched by Cittadellarte. In his contribution, our guest reflects on the consequences of the pandemic, and in particular on the current social frenzy: “It might be time to slow down our pace, but move faster with our intentions and awareness about the world we live in, about who we are as human beings”. Bortolussi then focuses on the key question of this episode: “We need to value each figure contributing to creating an item of clothing, because it is important to recognise the worth of people and make sure they live and work in dignified conditions”.

The art critic, exhibition curator and journalist is the 96th participant in the initiative “The Art of Balance / Pandemopraxy”, launched by Cittadellarte. Alberto Fiz reflects on the impact of Covid-19 on communication processes (“By now, our lives have definitely become hybrid, and our days are rhythmed by emails, WhatsApp messages, Instagram posts, Skype and Zoom calls") and draws attention to the importance a simple encounter might have in the post-pandemic: “Meeting, seeing each other in person, hugging each other won’t be ordinary occurrences taken for granted anymore, they will acquire a more profound and authentic meaning”.

The Art of Balance #94 | Alessia Vegro, what language will you speak?
The screenwriter and author is the 94th participant in the initiative “The Art of Balance / Pandemopraxy”, launched by Cittadellarte. Alessia Vegro analyses the impact of the pandemic at social level, focusing on the evolution and role of language. “I think that a language speaking of creativity and rebirth is just around the corner,” she said, “as it always is after a major crisis. A synesthetic language that involves the whole body and communicates through posture, sounds, images, smells, textures and flavours”.
