Alba Art Show
May 17 - June 1, 2008, Alba, Italy
The proposed theme for the show implicates the present time and place. The Situation of the 00s - "the decade that has not yet been named" refers to the century still young, one that promises new exciting developments, if only we can learn from our mistakes. The proliferating international art biennials usually have objective to provide the reflection of the current times, in order to show the pulse of the contemporary creativity. If we understand present as a "young century" we can hope to contribute to its good education and healthy formation in symbolic sense. In more literal sense, by presenting international artworks created in the 00s, the international portion of the exhibition showcases this young potentiality and its burst of creativity.
Participants in Alba present the art landscape of this place: from the oldest gallery in town established in 1961 - Angelo Galleasso Gallery, to Industrial Art organization Aganahuei, Photographic Studio Carpediem of Bruno Murialdo, to the youngest gallery in town - Anna Bondonio Camandona Art Gallery. I am being represented by the later, Bondonio Art Gallery.
