Italian Council 2019 • Giulio Squillacciotti

Giulio Squillacciotti with What has left since we left is among the winners of the sixth edition of Italian Council, a competition created by the Direzione Generale Arte e Architettura contemporanee e Periferie urbane (DGAAP) of the Ministry for Cultural Heritage and Activities, aimed at promoting Italian contemporary art worldwide.

"The idea of creating an extensive project, including a film, about the possible end of the European Union in an imagined future arises from the need to speculate on historical potential by discussing the present and recent past. The urgency to think about the European formula fictitiously, addressing contemporary issues as possible causes of future disintegration, acts as a collective exorcism for the generational community born and raised European." (Giulio Squillacciotti)

What has left since we left is a project promoted by Careof in collaboration with Jan van Eyck Academie, Maastricht.
