In the last 4,000 years there knowledge and enlightenment also many moments of philosophical and perhaps even moral. Twenty years after the fall of the Berlin wall make we all, artists included, that is part of the life of most such barbaric behavior: how much injustice, how many wars and how many dead. Does this make sense? And represents this state the desire of the people of Earth who wish to be able to touch the long-awaited paradise with her fingers? The artists have the talent to make the hidden visible. A world in the thousands for religious reasons were killed. A world in which violence is justified in the name of civilization or the need for maintaining of certain balances. Be sacrificed not only foreigners but also members of their own group and we think of Brecht who said: when the vanquished the nied’re people starving. For the victors, the nied’re people hungry also. (“(from: Bertold Brecht: on the wall)” *). Through their works, the artists question: “Will we never succeed, to respect others and to be respected?”
Is there a formula which frees us from the Cain’s syndrome (which more or less affects all of us) and that allows us to reach the desired paradise on Earth, Nirvana? The artist and the art itself the vision of people in the world have the great responsibility expand and thus the world without violence. P.S.: We are committed to any particular political direction and are open to the desire of people who would like to present a particular topic. Beginning on 11th September 2009 to 23th October 2009, Infantellina contemporary, the first and only Berlin gallery featuring 100% Italian art, will present the exhibition “A better world” by 12 emerging Italian talents: Antonella Boscarini Marco Castagnetto, Francesco Dea, Andrea Giorgi, Giampaolo Cono, Mauro Maffina, Mauro Martin, Mattia Moro, Riccardo Prosperi, Martino Sella, Fabrizia Zammatteo, Franco Zulian. Special Guest: Paul Kostabi, Willi Bambach. Vernissage starts at 6 pm In few decades mankind has made exponential progress regarding acquaintances and physical, technological, medical apparatuses. The load 4000 years there have been many moments of enlightenment in the philosophical thinking and, if we want to say, moral too. Twenty years after the fall of the wall in Berlin, artists comprised, once again realize how barbarism still is part of the life of the most: how many divisions, how many injustices, how many wars, how many dead people. All this has a sense? And does it represent the wish of the habitants of the earth that need to touch a presumed paradise with their fingers? The artists have the talent to pick and represent what is hidden or what seems to be gathered in light and dark parts of the world. A world where in thousands of innocent men were killed for religious reasons. A world where ferocity is justified with the name of civilization or the preservation of certain besides. One and the other sacrifices strangers or even own members, but as Brecht said: “under the defeated the poor are starving from starvation and under the Victor’s the poor are starving too” (free translation of: Bertold Brecht: “on the wall”). The artists through their own works ask the question: “Will we never succeed attempting to respect others and therefore receiving respect again”? Does a formula exist that can free US all from the slavery of the syndromes of Cain (from which we all are more or less affected) and that allows US to reach a strongly yearned paradise or nirvana? The artists and Art itself have the great responsibility to open the minds and thus changing the world without violence. P.S.: We do not promote any specific political opinion, and are open to people that like to represent a certain item.
