A collection of works on display at Musja in Rome from thirteen artists that explores the dark side that exists within all of us, Text in English and Italian.
The Dark Side is a project
that solicits the public on the 'dark side' that is in each of us, which
manifests itself in ancestral fears such as the fear of the dark ( to
which this first volume is dedicated), the fear of loneliness, the fear
of time. These fears require a pause, a reflection: they destabilise,
but at the same time ignite new possibilities, new thoughts, new
perspectives.
This volume Who's Afraid of the Dark?
investigates the theme of physical and metaphorical darkness, and
consequently the relationship with its opposite, light. It includes
works ranging from installations, multi-sensory experiences, mixed media
and large scale-works from 13 of the most important international
artists such as Gregor Schneider, Robert Longo, Hermann Nitsch, Tony
Oursler, Christian Boltanski, James Lee Byars up to the new protagonists
of the contemporary art scene such as Monster Chetwind, Sheela Gowda,
Shiota Chiharu and, among Italian artists, Gino De Dominicis, Gianni
Dessì, Flavio Favelli, Monica Bonvicini.
The artistic perspective
is countered with the interventions by theologian Gianfranco Ravasi,
physicist-theorist Mario Rasetti, psychiatrist Eugenio Borgna and
philosopher Federico Vercellone, who offer a polyphonic look of great
intellectual interest on this theme.
The Dark Side
project inaugurates Musja, a new museum in the city of Rome, which is
proposed as a reference for the most innovative trends in the
contemporary art scene.
Text in English and Italian.
