An International Collective Exhibition of contemporary art curated by Sandro Bongiani with the participation of 75 artists and a total of 128 works archived in the Bongiani Art Museum of Salerno for a sociological investigation on the current situation of contemporary art.
A new project more than 50 years after the one activated in 1976 by the Argentine artist Horacio Zabala. Today, the art proposed by the official and global cultural system is specifically planned according to a mere economic return for both the gallery owner and the artist and also by the curator on duty who prefers to be useful to the system by accepting the role of subordinate condition. In fact - writes Sandro Bongiani - "today's official art expressly adapts to pre-packaged commercial tactics and fashions, producing objects that are often of little importance which obviously the subservient criticism tries in every way to validate by giving motivations of various kinds to justify the necessary quality which often does not exist in the works". The precise report of this investigation is contextually highlighted in the presentation in which a precise analysis is made of what has changed in recent decades in the global panorama and often monotonous of the official contemporary art system".
