(ANSA) - UDINE, 13 OTT - A roundup of works of video art, spatial installation, photographic processing, gestural painting, and durational performance, focusing on the historical role of the Isonzo River. These works are on display in the exhibition "B#Side The River," set up today at the former air raid shelter in Piazza I Maggio, Udine, a symbolic place linked to the history of World War II in the Friulian capital. The exhibition, which is scheduled to open to the public tomorrow and will remain on display until November 6, presents the works created by the ten international guest artists of the festival of the same name, B#Side the River, a project promoted by the IoDeposito Association for Artistic and Cultural Promotion, under the artistic direction of Chiara Isadora Artico. The event took place over the summer across FVG, where artists hosted in residence between the Isontino and Bassa Friulana were asked to tell the stories of the Isonzo River through the participatory practices of contemporary art, where the most innovative languages merge with historical research, fueled by the testimonies of those who live on the territory. At the opening event tomorrow at the Anti-Aircraft Shelter in Piazza I Maggio (the exhibition will then go on display in Trieste from 10 to November 27), there will be a durational site-specific performance by Andreja Kargačin, a young Serbian artist from Novi Sad, and inspired by the history of the women of FVG region. Other artists in the exhibition include Slovenian Đejmi Hadrović, who lives and works in Egypt, Cambodian-born New Zealander Lang Ea, Serbian artist Andreja Kargačin, Turkish artist Gülhatun YÕldÕrÕm, Sweden's Ingrid Ogenstedt, Belgium's Nathalie Vanheule, Italy's Marta Lodola, Slovenia's Boris Beja, Canada's Holly Timpener, and the Netherlands' Deimion "Peim" van der Sloot.
