Stores That Offer Layaways

The museum and its territory. Michele Giangrande and the perfect crime. The exhibition at the museum


The Museum and its territory.

What are the functions of a museum? Organize a collection, host of exhibitions, capture the 'zeitgeist' to become an icon spatial reference, a museum today can not be nor what he said Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, a cemetery where corpses are lined up only, or a place of persuasive extreme hedonic consumption as in many museums around the world.
Another task of the Museum contemporary is also tenaciously preserve memory and identity, in our case (this is one of our priorities) planning to turn the cultural / artistic around the figure of Pino Pascali.
grounded upon this strong identity, the focus of our programming observes what happens in the territory, but focuses attention on the best there is in artistic research. The Museum
therefore, must be understood as a category of awareness of the place of belonging, in historicizing real-time lightning-fast changes and turmoil of contemporary art. The museum as a place of knowledge and training for new generations of knowledge and point of reference for the next. Michele Giangrande
For the exhibition at the Museum Pino Pascali is an important goal, already fully inserted into the contemporary art circuit, with assets of substantial holdings in Italy and abroad, is supported and followed by young curators and critics, is one of the most advanced art in Puglia last generation.

Michele Giangrande and the perfect crime. It
Dial M for Murder, 1995, Baudrillard attempts to reconstruct "a crime": the killing and the destruction of the illusion of reality by means of information media and new technologies, the French philosopher and sociologist wants to show that the post-modern societies are organized around a world of illusions in which people become slaves to consumerist values \u200b\u200bis enveloped in a world of appearances, images and likenesses, the true reality disappears although its traces continue to give us feeble the illusion of reality.
the ecstasy of communication media and hyper-object technology are witnessing a process of reification of reality to which human beings are dominated by things and become similar to the things themselves. And 'this type of objects that Michele Giangrande put under observation, objects that are not just emerging from the cycle of production-circulation-consumption, but that modified or completely re-invented by our young artist, is in itself a new system of signs, because they assume their own language and because they are able to emit signs values \u200b\u200bthat differ both from their value in use, both from their exchange value . These objects
Giangrande mediators who puts on the art scene, and establishing a creative and irresolvable paradox, because the object is real and at the same time produces an illusion, that you took charge of all the projections by the artist. Moving in a line between ready-made source of Dada and Duchamp-el'object trouvé surrealist, embodying a new project Giangrande aesthetic that makes his whole work an installation that could be called a magical repository of lost items.
