What CANADIAN (in)VISION Is All About
The contemporary art event (in)Vision is an invasion of Canadian art on foreign soil.
(in)Vision is about addressing cultural perspectives and provoking dialogue. Its aim is to ensure that the rich diversity and strength of Canada’s voice is heard in today’s global village.
The 2018 edition of Canadian (in)Vision focuses on contemporary art coming out of Montreal.
It is art that addresses the human condition, through lenses that are at once intimate, relational and socio-political, and in which memory acts as the weaving fibre that runs through all the artworks selected for the exhibition. Four complementary sections are featured:
Visual Art (painting, drawing, prints, photography, collage)
Video Art
Performance Art
Film
Under the curatorship and artistic direction of Alessandro Mangiarotti with Joyce Yahouda as co-curator for the VisualArt section, and Emmet Walsh as guest curator for the Film section, this inaugural edition of Canadian (in)Vision will give some thirty Montreal artists the opportunity to “invade” a seaside town on the renowned Island of Ischia, in Italy. Within the confines of this tourist destination, both the local inhabitants and its many international visitors will be exposed to Montreal's rich and thought-provoking current day art scene
The event will take place from April 21 to May 13, 2018 at the Museo il Torrione and in several other venues across the island of Ischia (program available shortly)
The official Opening will take place on April 21, 2018 (6pm)
at "Museo il Torrione" in Forio, Ischia.
