ECHO GETS THE LAST WORD
"Echo has the last word" is the site-specific installation created by Angela Capotorto with the aim of " exorcise "and" commemorate "an event that has now entered the history of the country and that has marked the souls of the citizens of Palagiano, the flood that occurred in 2003. Years later, just like an echo that echoes among the houses, the artist asks for the collaboration of the citizens in order to identify the places that have been most affected. Fabrics, but also objects still encrusted with mud, donated by citizens and meticulously collected and documented by the artist, will make up the installation that will symbolize the battle won by the victims. Cotton cloths, paper towels and T-shirts will cathartically signify the gesture of dabbing, like drying the crystallized memory in an effort to stop the advance of the mud. Angela Capotorto, born in 1995, has lived and worked in Cluj Napoca (Romania) and Bari since 2017. Graduated from the School of Decoration of the Academy of Fine Arts in Bari, she is a relational art. Her artistic research focuses on the multivariable relationships that can be created between a subject, a space and an object, updating them and placing them on a level of judgment and reflection. He prefers installations as a medium of his production, without forgetting painting, photography and the exploration of new materials, always functional to the participatory and relational aspect of art, making the community an integral part of his works ..
“Between matter and spirit” by Angela Lazazzera investigates the relationship between painting and the conceptual combined with the choice of an element characterizing the country used materially and symbolically as an artistic support. Angela Lazazzera, born in 1990, lives and works in Santeramo in Colle (Bari). She graduated from the School of Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bari, she also studied at the Universitatea de Arta si Design in Cluj-Napoca in Romania. Her artistic work develops mainly through painting. The human figure is always in contrast between matter and evanescence, in bodies that dissolve into the background, often no longer recognizable in their general and ordinary integrity. Man is the protagonist, but he is assimilated and collaborates with the background in a complex of brushstrokes and backgrounds, now clear, now blurred. Each work takes on a conceptual value, in the belief that conceptual art can also be created through figuration. His research is enriched with experiments and choices of particular supports, prepared with techniques and recipes handed down over time, creating a link between matter and figuration.
