To see, to create, to show, beyond the borders among territories, beyond borders between artist and viewer. Between land and lagoon: in places strongly symbolic of the multiple character of the Venetian territory. In the city centre, at the Sala San Leonardo, in the lagoon (in the island of Sant’Erasmo at the Massimiliana Tower, in the new city at the Contemporary Gallery of Mestre. At Forte Marghera centre (Venezia Mestre) passage between the historic centre and the continent, place in transformation from military “machine” to public space.
