ILOI

On Sunday June 27 we had a pleasure to open our conceptual exhibition ILOI. It was a truly wonderful and emotional day for all of us. Despite the heat and tiredness, up to 120 people joined the ILOI vernissage celebration.

«Palermo culture is not about the city and its historical sites, Palermo culture is about the people who inhabit it» emphasised our special guest Mario Zito (assessore alla culture di Palermo) during the event opening. These words strongly reflect the whole concept behind ILOI which brings human relationship in the centre of everything.

«You made this place alive again with your dances, music and a beautiful athmosphere» shared with us one of the Spasimo employees.

On Sunday June 4 we are closing the exhibition in Palermo, but it is not the end of the journey. As organisers and artists, we would like ILOI to grow into a movement of nomadic, collaborative and reflexive exhibition making. Travelling across physical and virtual spaces, ILOI will open the discussion about representations and engage in the dialogue between academics, artists, and the audience in both virtual and physical ways.

Special thanks to Salve Venaziano, Federica Arrigo, Alessia lo Bello for the photos.
