MEDIASTARS BRAND ART - 12-13 June 2014

BRAND ART
mostra collettiva arte moderna ispirata alla marca

   

BRAND ART
The soul of the Brand: generazioni a confronto.

L' inaugurazione della mostra si terrà il 12 Giugno alle ore 14 presso la corte reale di palazzo Isimbardi in Corso Monforte 35.

Gli artisti che prenderanno parte alla mostra sono ZIBE, Andrea Costa, Gaetano Grizzanti, Mich? Fare', Monica Menozzi, Paolo Rui, Miky Degni.

Oggi la marca e’ una fonte di ispirazione per una nuova forma di arte. Media Star Editore propone per appassionati e addetti ai lavori una finestra sul mondo dell’arte contemporanea legata al settore della Comunicazione.

Brand Art è un termine usato per la prima volta dall'artista contemporanea Swetlana Heger come movimento successivo alla Pop Art. Questa tendenza prevede l'utilizzo di marchi e dei loro prodotti come materia prima per le proprie opere.

La mostra collettiva BRAND ART - The soul of the Brand, sarà allestita a Palazzo Isimbardi, sede della Provincia di Milano in Corso Monforte 35 il 12 e 13 giugno, con il patrocinio di Provincia di Milano, UNICOM Unione Nazionale Imprese di Comunicazione, AI Associazione Autori di Immagini, Brand Identikit e Associazione RestArt.

Un poliedrico sguardo sulle più recenti tendenze dell’arte contemporanea, un assaggio degli emotional events che animeranno l’agenda culturale di Milano in vista dell’evento EXPO.

L’Associazione restART presenterà 370 pins selezionate per la seconda edizione dell’International pins contest restART.

Curatrice dell'allestimento della Mostra è Claudia Simoncini - Storica dell'Arte.

Orario della mostra:
giovedi’ 12 giugno, ore 14-17
venerdi’ 13 giugno ore 11-17
L'ingresso e’ libero.

DOVE SOGNO? (WHERE DO I DREAM?) - Exhibition

Dove sogno? (Where do I dream?)

"Non so, non c'è una regola. Talvolta lo faccio in treno, oppure quando, andando in bicicletta, cerco dischi volanti dietro agli angoli o mi inseguono gli orsi giù dalle montagne. L'altro ieri mi è capitato di farlo riordinando le calze; cinque minuti fa ne ho fatto uno proprio qua, mi scappava e non sono riuscito a trattenerlo."

Salomon Güp (critico e filosofo)

"I don't know, there is no rule. Sometimes I do it on the train or, while riding a bike, I look for flying saucers behind street corners or when bears chase me down from the mountains. The other day I happened to do it as I was reordering my socks; five minutes ago I had one right here, it was an urge and I just could not hold it."

HISTORY 53 - 2014 - VISITOR'S VISA

In a moment of dire consequences, Susumu 進, the Japanese Koi, undertook the perilious challenge to follow the bureaucratic path and get all the necessary documents to come and visit the city. In order to combine business and pleasure, he took this chance to help solve the catastrophic moral failure affecting the labour market, without asking for whatsoever reward or monetary remuneration. To him go the citizenry's enduring affection and gratitude.

EQUILIBRIUM (7)

Creativity is a path to freedom

Do you remember that day in 1972 when the San Francisco skyline changed forever (so to speak) when the Transamerica Pyramid was completed?

They say that a sense of serene fulfillment grabbed the hearts of everyone and that for a day, a smile was the expression that everyone wore on their faces. These combined together into a gigantic smile that rose up for just a moment to the very top of the skyscraper's pinnacle. It was one of those warm evenings when everyone feels at peace with oneself and the universe and forgetful of every day's toiling.

No pictures were taken, no article was written on the press, no governmental statement was issued.

At the end of the day, what was left was a mere feeling, a subdued sensation of calm and hope and, deep within the hearts of those who witnessed the event, the certainty that the impossible, no matter how unbelievable that may be, is just a few millimeters away from common sense.

Original painting: 'EQUILIBRIUM (7)' - Acrylic and oil on 20x20cm canvas

PRESENT IN THE BALANCE (a diptych) - 2013

Present is the period of time unequivocally left in the narrow space between past and future.

Equilibrium, the exhibition cured by Gianluca Veltri at ANADEMA Hair Stylists' in Milan (www.anadema.com) is going on with the help of its main character, the horse. Here's one I met the other day in Piazza del Duomo, while on my way to class at IED's. We exchanged polite greetings and parted. They told me the gentle steed is here to report about our present-day illusions for a newspaper of unknown denomination.
To anyone who might send me a copy of such articles would go my utter respect and appreciation.
