    #iolosegnocosì #tucomelosegni is the new video project by LISten Project designed to promote the dissemination of LIS signs related to the field of visual arts.
    The project aims to generate a constructive linguistic debate through social platforms, in order to encourage the use and dissemination of visual culture among deaf audience.
    Through dozens of videos, our LIS cultural mediators show the signs elaborated and used during their research and their mediation work, accompanying them with a brief explanation.

    #iolosegnocosì #tucomelosegni accepted the proposal of BeGo Museum of Castelfiorentino to collaborate in the realization of #BeGoedition.

    In addition, there is a #genuaedition of the rubric #iolosegnocosì #tucomelosegni, which consists of a series of informative videos on some specific signs of Italian Sign Language related to elements of the artistic and cultural heritage of the city of Genoa.

    ARTDATE
    Contemporary Art Festival
    XI edition
    NEL TEMPO SOSPESO
    11 12 13 14 November Bergamo

    NEL TEMPO SOSPESO is the theme of the 11th edition of the Contemporary Art Festival ArtDate that will take place in Bergamo from November 11 to 14.
    It is a large reflection on the indeterminacy and apprehension that is characterizing this unforgettable period of which we are all protagonists and testimonials, a historical phase also full of expectations and desires.

    Thursday 11th, Friday 12th, Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th November, Bergamo will host the 11th edition of ArtDate, Contemporary Art Festival organized by The Blank.
    Over the years, ArtDate has become a reference point able to approach and promote contemporary art to a large and diversified audience. In this edition, ArtDate presents many important innovations, focusing on the theme of suspended time, refreshing the attention to the issues of accessibility and participation.

    THE BLANK CONTEMPORARY ART
    99 WORDS WITH CHIARA ENZO

    The body mixed with itself and with another (or with others), with itself as with the other, does not enter into an identification or in a confusion, but in a disturbing proximity because it itself is proximity, an approach to a certain distinction and renewal, repetition and rekindling of the gap where the pleasure consists in tasting the measure forever uncertain, ephemeral and trembling. Touching: that is, making attraction and repulsion play together, integrity and break-in, distinction and translation. Making the whole play as such, i.e. the touch of unity and of its detachment, of its disunity.

    THE BLANK CONTEMPORARY ART
    99 WORDS WITH GRAHAM HUDSON

    Do you desire to build a beautiful body? In 1882, circus performer, Friedriech Wilhem Müller toured Italy, inspired by sculptures like Michelangelo’s David’, he would re-mould his body in their image. He re-named himself Eugen Sandow, becoming the world’s first body builder and a symbol of Modernism. He’s in Duchamp’s ‘Large Glass’ and Joyce’s ‘Ulysses’. Schwarzenegger calls Sandow ‘My Hero’, he inspired NASA’s Aerobics and modern Yoga. But the Roman sculptures were copies of lost Greek works, which were more maths algorithm than physical study. Today we chase this tale of classicism, modernism and facsimile to dream the unattainable.
