Giornata del Contemporaneo 2020

Careof takes part in the sixteenth edition of the Giornata del Contemporaneo, the major event promoted by AMACI – Associazione dei Musei d’Arte Contemporanea Italiani, which for sixteen years has involved museums, foundations, public and private institutions, galleries, studios, and artist spaces to showcase the vitality of contemporary art in Italy.

On Saturday, December 5, Careof’s Facebook and Instagram channels will launch an in-depth focus dedicated to the project What Has Left Since We Left by Giulio Squillacciotti, a reflection on the hypothetical end of Europe developed through a short film and a book published by Onomatopee.

In this complex year, deeply affected by the pandemic emergency, the Giornata del Contemporaneo takes on a necessarily different form from the traditional one. The changed context due to the Covid-19 emergency required the suspension of the event’s traditional format and an updated edition with adjustments to ensure its online implementation.

This year too, the event is supported by the Direzione Generale Creatività Contemporanea of MiBACT, in collaboration with the Direzione Generale per la Promozione del Sistema Paese of MAECI, and under the patronage of the Rappresentanza in Italia della Commissione Europea, Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri, Camera dei Deputati, Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali e per il Turismo, Ministero degli Affari Esteri e della Cooperazione Internazionale, Conferenza delle Regioni e delle Province Autonome, UPI – Unione Province d’Italia, ANCI – Associazione Nazionale Comuni Italiani, and ICOM Italia.
