Mind the gap<\/em> is a visual contemporary art project organised by Altreforme in Gorizia, in collaboration with different cultural institutions and institutional agents of the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. The project, started in 2017, takes place inside Parco Basaglia and in various locations in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mind the Gap<\/em> is inspired by and dedicated to Franco Basaglia, the Italian psychiatrist who authored the eponymous law (known as Basaglia law or Law 180) and promoted the closing of psychiatric hospitals. Moreover, the project also aims at reinforcing participatory cultural processes over the years and through multiple actions. As Franco Basaglia once affirmed, art and culture can become devices to engage both the places and the interactions these places host.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second Edition, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mind the gap <\/em>is a project of Christian Fogarolli conceived for Parco Basaglia, the place where in 1961 the homonymous Italian psychiatrist started his own therapeutic (and social) revolution. The title of the exhibition \u2013 a clear pun between the terms \u201cmind\u201d (brain, memory, sanity) and \u201cgap\u201d (discrepancy, breach, difference) \u2013 focuses on diversity as a value worth considering and aims at shedding light on contemporary art as something able to rethink the traditional destination of the places involved and equally able to debunk preconceptions and prejudices that too often still afflict the world of mental health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First Edition, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Labrys<\/em> is a project of contemporary art, diffused in time and space. Labrys<\/em> is a project, divided into nine parts created by visual artist Maria Rebecca Ballestra, and loosely based on the writings by Julien Friedler, The Truth of the Labyrinth<\/em>. The aim of each stage is to investigate the meaning of the object \u201clabyrinth\u201d by unfolding every time a different symbolism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
