Attese

Attese has expressed itself completely in the city, in a new nomadic format, affirming that concepts can be established regardless of where they are realized in practice. Attese did not want to establish itself as a new art gallery, nor did it set out to be a substitute or alternative to existing exhibition spaces. The theme of an art interested in conceptual, contextual, and relational aspects was chosen, and it was the close relationship with the artists that was the key driver of the entire project. The chosen artists, infact, do not share a common art style, but have a more important common trait. They share the same theoretical vision or horizon: a change of values conceived through works of art, but also a transformation of the ethical and aesthetic values that are derived from it. Certainly this change of horizon critically responds to the changed conditions of our society and to the alienation that these generate.

An art form has been proposed that develops models and visions of possible universes, the effective possibility of a change rooted in a concrete reality, works of art that extend to the body and to the urban spaces in need of finding a new meaning, and in a logic of disconnection and reconnection. In fact, questions have been raised concerning the reasons and the ways that the contemporary artistic experience approach the many nodes of being and living in the contemporary world.

The crisis of the conventional vision of reality is characteristic of our times, and Attese proposed to be a means through which to disseminate ideas, radiate energy, and to free the collective forces it embraced the attention to relations of affection.

Artists, now more than ever, are the most visible symbol of worldwide circulation: they are born in a country, study in another, work in yet another, and continuously travel. Attese was intended to follow a double track, ethical and aesthetic, in order to emphasize, once again, that cultural production can actually change the course of history. The idea is to invite the public to make a mental step, because the artists do not picture the world with its various divisions, with boundaries and the separations between nations, but "design" models of new worlds.
