curated by: Alessandra Bigi Iotti, Marinella Paderni, Massimo Pulini, GiulioZavatta Museum of the City/FAR Fabbrica Arte Rimini, April 23 – July 10, 2016.
At FAR – Fabbrica Arte Rimini in the central Piazza Cavour, the dialogue is between the *dimenticare a memoria* by Vincenzo Agnetti and the works of Coriolano Vighi lent, like many others, by the National Art Gallery of Bologna.
The gigantic graphite elephant by Davide Rivalta, whose body appropriates the plaster and bricks of the majestic wall, is a totem that symbolizes the genuine willingness to make these spaces a workshop for research. One can sense temperatures shaped by the ever-transient processuality of an art that suggests and investigates rather than merely exhibits.
