The edition of Cortona On The Move 2019<\/strong> continues the intention of the festival to be a space for reflection and visual narration of the world in which we find ourselves. This year\u2019s theme focuses on the relationship between humans and the landscape. Nature<\/em> and the environment<\/em> are key words today. Landscape and nature are an integral part of human history. They talk about us, what we want, and for better or for worse, the environment that surrounds us reflects our thinking and our actions. Ex magazzino delle carni<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Drowning World explores the phenomenon of flooding through photography and video. Since 2007 the artist has made more than 19 trips to tell this catastrophic phenomenon that surpasses any geographical, cultural and economic conflict. Its purpose is to give real meaning to the existence of the human being.<\/p>\n Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n For the first time, three Simon Norfolk\u2019S projects are presented together in a thematic exhibition with a provocative title. Norfolk\u2019s work has always been focused on landscape, time and all the human actions that leave traces on the territory. Moreover, the serious ecological question has also recently been added. All this brought together in our suggestive fortress with the attempt to create a reflective space on the influence that man has on the earth.<\/p>\n Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n It shows what Verzone has documented in recent years, in one of the most northerly communities in the world, Ny-\u00c5lesund. This place in the Arctic is also a center for international research and environmental monitoring.<\/p>\n Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Curated by: Arianna Rinaldo<\/em> Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Moments of the daily relationship of the Italians with the sea are portrayed, interpreting their connection with the coast. Some small details remind us of the natural and historical beauties of Italy, but also document the lack of respect for them.<\/p>\n Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Tale of a small island in the Salish Sea, where the few inhabitants remain estranged from the present world. Comparable to an utopia of escape from this planet stressed by evolution itself. We will see how the residents are connected but at the same time isolated from all the clich\u00e9s that represent us.<\/p>\n Fortezza del Girifalco<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n The approach of the german photographer is at the forefront, but with an eye to tradition. On the one hand, he wants to classify the wealth of medicinal plants, on the other he wants to create an idea of \u200b\u200ba new landscape. The aim is to \u201cquantify reality\u201d objectively in a place where nature is respected and accompanied during its spontaneous development.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A documentary and conceptual photograph, inspired by the Santa Barbara soap opera, the artist talks about her mother who was a correspondence wife, she decided to write an aritcle where she was looking for an American man to embrace true love. A lot of men answered, and one of them was from Santa Barbara.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n It describes how the Middle East, has transformed itself from an area full of fertility to a now-extinct placethrough, through many geopolitical changes. A still incomplete photographic project that will be divided into four chapters.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n He tells how the various civil explosions in Italy, in Europe and in the world, have changed the way we look to the future, and his photographs speak above all of how behind there, have always been detailed plans to demolish and recreate true architectures and landscapes.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n For this project the artist spents eight years investigating the policy of replenishing forests and the natural environment in new Chinese cities. He started this project in Chongqing. Then he continued the project in Haidong, where he captured the colorful landscapes of ecological recovery.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n The project opens windows on places, people and their stories in Israel. His photographs are confronted with a forced and obstinate invisibility, which concerns above all the inhabitants, deliberately erased in order to question the truths received about who lives in this place.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A photographic duo that describes an Indonesia that lives by its own environmental catastrophes: the residents live at the foot of the volcanoes because the soil is particularly fertile thanks to volcanic ash.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n She talks about her trip to Mexico with migrants who were headed to the United States, because they wanted to escape from crime. The caravan is not just a much debated political issue, it\u2019s above all a humanitarian crisis that involves over 7 thousand people.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n A vast desert that crosses the border between Mexico and the United States, where people continue to pass. This project follows many old and new paths, turning the desert into a stage to reflect on the issue of migration.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n He tells how the province of Sistan and Balucistan, from extraordinary agricultural resources, have become barren deserts, due to climate change and drought, and how this has also led to the migration of the inhabitants.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Photographs that show enchanted and metaphorically distant places from the rest of the world, almost utopian. Where people go to escape from worldliness and routine. A place of inner peace and mental isolation.<\/p>\n Palazzo Capannelli<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n That is \u201cthe island\u201d, is a photographic project composed of snapshots depicting people who live on an island and reflects on the lack of communication, the departure, the separation, developing in a familiar and geographical environment.<\/p>\n Palazzo Cinaglia<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n It is a territorial survey that was born in the Dolomites, where, moving away from the undisputed charm of the mountain, the author tends to observe the territory with lucidity, seeking the possibility of risk for the inhabitants of those places where a catastrophe is supposed to happen.<\/p>\n Giardini del parterre<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Baci from Cortona: 50 years of the University of Georgia Cortona edited by Liza Faktor<\/em><\/p>\n A recurring program at the Cortona On The Move<\/em> festival that explores the intersection between photography, film and other media. Since 2018 the purpose of ARENA is to promote projects created by photographers, film-makers and visual artists for a European and international audience, concerning complex social issues.<\/p>\n During this world-wide event, it is considered necessary to explore the multiple forms of photography, following the evolution of the visual language. The intent of #cotm<\/strong> is to look at photography in a context of conversation with cinema, sound, etc.<\/p>\n ARENA wants to emphasize that transmediale storytelling is not a completely new phenomenon: I can show images in an alternative and contemporary way through the use of classical and antiquated technologies, and where to combine at best an innovative narrative and classic Italian culture if not in a historical place and theatrical like Cortona ?!<\/p>\n This year, in response to the theme of the festival, the program proposed by ARENA explores the memories, but also the traumas inflicted by historical events and industrial interventions, and the impact that these events had on the inhabitants and the territory. The projects on show reflect on our connection with the territory and how we live the feelings of belonging to a place: we humans are connected with the landscape regardless of how we influence nature and the environment. And this connection often causes events that occur in certain places.<\/p>\n You will discover the various exhibitions of the Arena on the site of Cortona on the Move, section Exhibitions -> Arena<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":6452,"menu_order":0,"template":"","event-categories":[391],"class_list":["post-6507","event","type-event","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-categories-culture-events-cortona","event-organizers-associazione-culturale-on-the-move"],"yoast_head":"\n
\nIn this edition, through contemporary documentary photography, and under the artistic direction of Arianna Rinaldo, we will see works that show the relationship of today\u2019s human being with the surrounding circumstances. A complex connection, which raises questions about our past, present and future.
\nWe will talk through images of a platonic love between man and a nature that is often wounded by him.<\/p>\nLe mostre\u00a0di Cortona On The Move 2019<\/strong><\/h3>\n
