In Harmony with Nature in Elba

Sant’Ilario on the island of Elba is not a spot that everybody knows. Well, not yet, because there’s an active group  called Voltine that started to reach out to mail artists from all over the world. The opening of the exhibition of the works they received will take place on Friday 18 August at 7 pm.

It’s already the second edition of the event, and Luca Polesi will present the catalog with the works they received last year. The curators Frederica Frati and Nico Carone will talk about the organisation of the exhibition, their expectations and the outcome of their worldwide call. Giulio Visibelli, renowned saxophonist and flutist, will be responsible for the music.

The exhibition will feature a print (no. 3/3) by Gerald that confronts the world of yesterday (a section from Marinetti’s car-crazy futurist manifesto) with today’s necessity to find a way to once again live in harmony with our planet, symbolized by the bicycle. The text on the left says: We have no fear.
