LOCAL_ART 2015 a cura di Ilaria Bonacossa
LocalArt è un concorso dedicato ai giovani artisti under 40 nati, residenti e/o operanti in provincia di Cuneo promosso dalla Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Cuneo
in collaborazione con l’Associazione Art.ur di Cuneo
e con la Fondazione Fotografia di Modena.
TreeCloakBell è stato realizzato a Mondovì, a
partire dalla storia di una donna del XVII secolo
considerata Serva di dio o eretica. Il film è una critica
al dogmatismo e si compone seguendo le dinamiche
del sogno.
Gruppi o singoli individui ordinano lo spazio intorno
a loro e si circondano secondo le loro credenze. Le
credenze e le usanze legano un popolo o una comunità.
La storia e le usanze di Mondovì sono legate a una
grande vitalità e movimento, la presenza di mulini,
fornaci, filande, setifici, concerie, manifatture di
stoffe, laboratori di stampa, e soprattutto le meridiane,
le mongolfiere, la funicolare e la lavorazione della
ceramica. Molte energie confluiscono qui e il tema
principale sembra essere l’eterno problema del tempo
e del movimento. La mongolfiera sarebbe il risultato
dalle riflessioni sul miglior modo di muoversi, o
di volare; il desiderio è di abbandonare il peso. Si
abbandonerà anche il tempo e la paura, con le vertigini
si abbandonerà anche il corpo? Le meridiane sono
il risultato di studi astronomici, un altro guardare
lontano verso il cielo. In queste strutture stabilite da
usanze, misurazioni e religioni, si celano arbitrarietà
a determinazione della nostra esistenza, sempre tesa
tra un’inizio e una fine.
Attorno al 1680 a Mondovì ci furono le Guerre del
Sale, movimenti di ribellione contro l’oppressione
fiscale dei Savoia, una regola arbitraria quanto
ogni altra. Dello stesso periodo storico è la figura
di Anna Maria Faussone, serva di Dio, la cui vita è
esplicativa di psicologie individuali e collettive che
vissero profondamente il conflitto di etica e morali
codificate, figure relegate alle definizioni di eresia
o santità che rivelano in queste frontiere psicosi,
nevrosi, sublimazioni mistiche, allucinazioni e
esperienze parapsicologiche. Contenitori che non
possono afferrare, o contenuti troppo sfuggenti. Le
classificazioni in molti casi dipendono dal tipo di
visioni e codificazioni che le giudicano.

TreeCloakBell has been realized at Mondovi, inspired
by the story of a woman considered Servant of God or
heretical in the XVII century. The film is a critique of
dogmatism and it is made by following the dynamics of
a dream .
Groups or individuals use to order their space and
surround themselves according to their beliefs. Beliefs
and customs bind people in community. The history
and customs of Mondovì (Cuneo, Italy) are linked to
a great vitality and movement, the presence of mills,
furnaces, silk factories, tanneries, textiles factories, print
shops, and above all: sundials, the hot-air balloons, the
funicular and ceramics. Many energies converge here
and the main theme seems to be the eternal problem of
time and movement. The hot-air balloon would result
from the reflections on the best way of getting around,
or fly; the desire is to drop the weight. Would we also
abandon the time and fear? with vertigo would we also
leave the body?
Sundials are the result of astronomical studies. Another
look far into the sky. In these structures, established
by customs, measurements and religions, are conceal
arbitrariness that determinate our existence, increasingly
stretched between a beginning and an end.
Around 1680, in Mondovi, there were some rebellions
against fiscal oppression of Savoy, called Salt Wars,
rebellion against an arbitrary rule as any other. Of the
same historical period is the figure of Anna Maria
Faussone, servant of God, whose life is explanatory of
individual and collective psychologies who lived deeply
the conflict between coded ethical and moral. Figures
relegated to the definitions of heresy or holiness that
reveal in these borders psychosis, neurosis, mystical
sublimations, hallucinations and parapsychological
experiences. Containers that can not grasp, or contained
too fleeting. In many cases classifications depend on the
visions and codifications that judge.
LocalArt is a prize promoted by
Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio of Cuneo
in collaboration with the Association Art.ur of
Cuneo and with Fondazione Fotografia di Modena.
