Cultural exchange

The installations, that are part of an artistic project set among the cold and huge ices of the South, include base camp’s tents made with flags of different countries from all over the world, parachutes, survival equipments, a particular video reporting the artists’ trip and other works, all symbolizing the abolition of every frontier for the integration and the cultural exchange among people.

Visitors entering the Hangar Bicocca receive their Antarctic World Passport, a passport edition created by the artists as a symbol for the eradication of all borders, real or imaginary, as obstacles to integration and cultural exchange.

The exhibition is also an occasion for presenting other major works created by the artists, addressing social, environmental and humanitarian issues.

The show will be open till 08/06/08.

Among the lot of photos we find images that surprised, that made people reflect, that shocked, that stimulated the entire world, we find images that excited, that injected heroism, images that we never wish to see, and images that instead we wish to see every day of our lives. The just gone-by year best pictures have been all made with Canon cameras. This year edition’s winner is an Englishman Tim Hetherington, who made a picture for Vanity Fair America, painting an American soldier exhausted by war in Afghanistan. The show will be open until 25^th of May.

Taking a careful look, we can notice the Pirelli skyscraper, the arena and some of the most famous and important roads of the Lombardia’s capital, from Larga road up till Europa avenue. In this show the artist’s skills of defining the most symbolic places of the economic capital of the country are endless. Every painting tells the sinful succession of nostalgic events in favor of a perception focused more on chaos than on order. This exposition will be open for the public still tomorrow .

Among the many cities depicted with oil on canvas , like Palermo, Ragusa, Siracusa, Comiso, Lampedusa, Marsala, this artist expresses a strong sense of melancholy to his land in every painting. Also,we could see in the gallery , paintings of women and perhaps men belonged to the past life of the artist. This exposition will remain open until 22 th of March.

In the first part of the concert they have sung the new pieces of their second album and then dedicate themselves to a magnificent performance of songs extracted from the previous year. The public was greatly excited to hear and see Pete in excellent condition, both physical and singing. Many fans honour their favourite and stayed in the hope with optimism that the band, and especially their front man, continues to create the excellent music and leaves behind the bad vices of the past.
