En parallele > Migre

En parallèle / MIGRE is a socio-cultural and artistic project aimed at activating exchange platforms between Italy and other countries. The project is conceived and curated by Katia Anguelova and Alessandra Poggianti, who each year identify a different country to open a cultural exchange entrusted to the creativity of artists.

The first stage involves France and Italy, specifically Grenoble and Milan. A group of young artists meets in two exhibition spaces in Milan: Careof and the Centre culturel français de Milan.

En parallèle / In parallelo aims to create a situation in which questions can be posed and projects developed that generate new types of relationships and facilitate transformations in different social contexts. The interventions by the artists are not conceived as responses to a common theme. The starting point and raw material of the works is, in fact, the world in which the artists live, move, and react. The works engage their strategies and respective artistic approaches. The space becomes the container in which a process of reflection is activated on how the issues of public, cultural, political, and urban discourse intertwine and their representation within an exhibition space.

Suitcase illuminated is a project conceived by Katia Anguelova and Alessandra Poggianti that aims to identify videos and compilations from different countries and “set them traveling,” tracing an immaterial and nomadic geography. In the first stage, the compilation of Mexican artists ComeCloser, selected by Paola Santoscoy, was presented; in the second, the wall-video Naughts&Crosses by Seamus Farrell. During 2006, two more exhibition moments are planned, in Italy and France, where special projects by some of the exhibiting artists will be presented.
