​Made in Italy
by Drifters

​

Made in Italy by the Drifters collective is a contemporary art project that combines fashion, performance, and social activism to raise awareness about the costs of toxic masculinity, which amounts to €98.78 billion annually for the Italian state (ISTAT). The project consists of an exhibition at Campo XS featuring the Made in Italy collection of clothing printed with statistical data, presented through a fashion show along Via del Campo on the opening night. The community of Via del Campo and surrounding areas was invited to actively participate in the creation and realization of the project: local seamstresses and tailors, residents who volunteered as models, as well as DJs and local musicians were invited to contribute their skills and creativity. This community collaboration emphasizes the importance of a collective approach to addressing and disseminating social issues. During the opening evening, a screen printing frame was set up in the Campo XS space, and at the end of the Made in Italy fashion show, participants, visitors, and spectators had the opportunity to screen print their clothing, thus becoming part of this "edu-fashion" project. This activity not only disseminates crucial data on toxic masculinity in Italy but also transforms clothing into tools for awareness and change.

Discorso in forma di paesaggio
Death of Master
curated by Federica Balletto and Martina Montagna

​

Discorso in forma di paesaggio is a series of performances and interventions by Death of Master, a collective artistic formation active in the fields of sound, visual, and poetic experimentation. Campo XS and the surrounding territory become protagonists of structural and relational transformations, in a progressive series of three announced performances and other weekly interventions during the space's opening hours. The landscape of Campo XS transforms into a playground for creating discourse through sound, movement, and word, using the landscape and the viewpoints it comprises as tools for interpreting reality, offering the audience variable perspectives. The landscape is constructed and manipulated through performative actions and installation elements, such as lights, smoke, and autobiographical objects, becoming itself an element of transformation of the discourse that Death of Master creates through the landscape and its users.

From Mouth to Ear, Body to Body, Hand to Hand 

Rebeca Pak

curated by Livia Milani

 â€‹

From Mouth to Ear, Body to Body, Hand to Hand, a solo exhibition by Rebeca Pak curated by Livia Milani, arises from an artistic-curatorial research on the concept of 'exotic' as a stereotype not only of different cultural identities but also of bodies and their representations, particularly feminine ones. The artist considers citrus fruits a key element that incorporates layered stories and symbologies: they are a figurative representation of the trade exchanges of the colonial period and, at the same time, they also serve as a Western allegory of the 'charm of the elsewhere' that finds in the eroticization of the female body a powerful tool for imagination, stereotyping, and narrative.

La Tana 

Maurizio Segato

 

​La Tana is a project that originates from the reading of “Der Bau” by Franz Kafka, an incomplete tale in which the protagonist, (sometimes animal, sometimes human) describes the construction of his dwelling, grappling with the challenge of designing a disorienting underground system while constantly fearing that foreign intensities or outsiders will contaminate and threaten his life, but even more so his burrow.​
