10 Novembre – 20 Dicembre 2018
Sabato 10 novembre 2018, alla Reggia di Caserta, VILLAM ha presentato Relazioni Estetiche, un’ ampia e articolata mostra a cura di Massimo Scaringella. Quattordici grandi artisti contemporanei, italiani e internazionali, di diverse generazioni, sono stati invitati ad intervenire con opere scelte o realizzate site specific negli spazi del Palazzo Reale più grande del mondo, dichiarato nel 1997 patrimonio dell’umanità dall’UNESCO, proponendone una nuova visione attraverso l’arte contemporanea.
Artisti con mezzi espressivi differenti – video, installazione ambientale, light art, fotografia, scultura, pittura – ma collegati per affinità formali o sostanziali in un percorso sorprendente che interagisce direttamente con gli ambienti interni ed esterni della Reggia. Ognuno secondo la propria poetica, ognuno con i propri materiali d’elezione, tenta di instaurarvi un dialogo quanto più intenso possibile, che alla fine, nella pluralità delle voci, restituisce uno spazio nuovo, un “mondo” nuovo più complesso e potenziato. Opere dal forte impatto visivo provocano intimamente lo spettatore, coinvolgendolo dalla prima all’ultima sala in una continua rivelazione di espressioni poetiche e percezioni.
Con opere di:
- JORGE MIÑO (Argentina),
- TRACEY MOFFAT (Australia),
- PATRICIA CLARO (Cile),
- SHAY FRISCH (Israele/Italia),
- FRANCESCA ARRI, CARLO BERNARDINI, FILIPPO BERTA, STEFANO

Relazioni Estetiche, a wide and articulated exhibition curated by Massimo Scaringella, was presented by VILLAM on Saturday the 10th of November ,the exhibition was hosted by La Reggia di Caserta until the 20th of December 2018.
Fourteen Italian and international great contemporary artists of different generations have been invited to participate with selected works or site-specific works created in the spaces of the world’s largest Royal Palace, declared World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997, and now proposed in a new vision through contemporary art.
Even if all the featured artists use different means of expression – such as video, environmental installation, light art, photography, sculpture, painting – they’re all still connected by formal or substantial affinities in a surprising journey that interacts directly with the internal and external environments of the Palace. Each artist expresses himself according to his own poetics, with his own materials, and each one tries to establish a dialogue as intense as possible, which in the end, in the plurality of voices, gives back a new space, a new “world” that appears as more complex and enhanced. Some of the artworks, with a strong visual impact, intimately provoke the viewer, involving him from the first to the last room in a continuous revelation of poetic expressions and perceptions.
Inside of the impressive scenario of historical immensity that hosts this exhibition – writes the curator Massimo Scaringella – the works of these contemporary artists can really stand out as they are foreign to the environment. This creates something that seems to be a visual conflict, but that at the same time leads us to an effect of temporal mixture that leads us out of time.
