PORTA FORTUNA - Riccardo Ruggiano
"… Una sfida… contro l’industria dell’arte, contro le regole e i meccanismi economici su cui essa si regge che… hanno fatto diventare l’opera un bene di lusso e di investimento… uno spazio espositivo "pro-oggetto" dove… creare progetti comuni e condivisi… Un percorso non facile, ma necessario. Riavvicinare il pubbblico all’arte contemporanea" articolo Alessia De Maio

Ex Scuderie Duca D’Atri Palace

fitting
R. Ruggiano - L. D’Avino - F. A. Cabrera
"Objects of daily use, icons of contemporary consumer society, have been transformed with ironic contrast into precious and fine porcelain. Products with a short life-cycle are immortalised in the beauty of their aesthetic, ergonomic and production engineering. The exhibition, mindless of the speed of consumption, encourages reflection."
