NABA is glad to announce the participation of three Visual Arts Area’s students to The Wild State: networked, the exhibition promoted by University of Art and Design Linz during Ars Electronica Festival 2020, from 9th to 13th September 2020. Existing since 2002, the intention of the format is to invite outstanding international universities working in the academic fields of media arts and design to focus on a different theme each year. This year The Wild State: networked exhibition, curated by Davide Bevilacqua & Julia Nüßlein, consists in a reflection on the aftermath of the global Covid-19 pandemic.
The students of the MA in Visual Arts and Curatorial Studies are presenting these three artworks: Teorie di Topi cycle by Marco Antelmi, Nothing is Known, Everything is Imagined by Gaia De Megni, and I Stop Here by Emanuele Cantò. To discover more about this initiative you can find here the complete programme.
This remarkable participation confirms NABA Visual Arts Department’s international positioning, along with the participation to the exhibition Domani Qui Oggi, a collateral event of the next Quadriennale di Roma, of Jacopo Martinotti, alumnus of the MA in Visual Arts and Curatorial Studies. The exhibition, curated by Ilaria Gianni, will take place at the Palazzo delle Esposizioni from 29th October 2020 to 17th January 2021.
NABA’s alumni Niccolò Benetton and Simone Santilli, the artist duo known as The Cool Couple, have been enlisted among the winners of the 8th edition of Italian Council, the programme aimed at supporting Italian contemporary art, conceived by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity (DGCC) of the Italian Ministry of Cultural Heritage and Activities and Tourism. The Cool Couple was presented by Milan’s Cultural Association Cafeof, and selected from the 60 applications received.
