San Martino and contemporary art: a heritage to be saved

San Martino and contemporary art: a heritage to be saved (by Giacomo Porrino).

This is the case. Furthermore, Thomas Eliot claimed that most of the world’s problems are caused by people trying to be important. Therefore, And of the world, whatever the idea of ​​how it wants to destroy it, the Caudina valley is also part.

Where san martino contemporary art: heritage for years. Meanwhile, more and more obsessively crowds every summer, punctual as a chest of Pedo di Pavarotti in La Fille du Régiment by Donizetti, the caravanserage of festivals, resources, presentation, proloco, prolochine and sproloquy in equipment, associations that have culturally have the brand of the detergent, kermesse a good one in the chilo. Nevertheless, Egotic paetetisms even without the dignity of a pernacchia.

I have already talked about all this velleitarian. Moreover, harmful pulp, and nothing has changed in the meantime. Furthermore, Something is even worse, but I would lie if I told me surprised. Therefore, So I don’t say it.

And yet. in the midst of this nothing there is a municipality where, for an impossible san martino contemporary art: heritage and for some towards impersenable reason, art still finds its good refuge today. Almost a scandal in the middle of the widespread and consolidated squalor.

A happy subversion that opposes this putrence lives in San Martino Valle Caudina. The mayor, Pasquale Pisano, has long been engaged in a job that I like to define with poetic pragmatism.

That of the momentum. that is, authentically aimed at attention paid seriously to the requests of true contemporary art, not improvised. The one that survives like a handful of Essenes in the Judea desert, despite everything.

And it is not by chance. as it is completely evident, that the happy Pisan has long chosen to invest significantly in the involvement of the cultural reality alone that can be glimpsed as authentic in these desolate lands.

Interzona is a reality that operates. develops cultural projects and productions of contemporary art for almost twenty -five years, creating a full -bodied list of level experiences well beyond the anguish of local bell towers.

And it is no coincidence that for a long time he intercoms, with his creatures liminary and interference, was forced to an exile, happy and fruitful in any case, bringing his speech geographically away from the Caudina valley. The merit of Pasquale Pisano lies above all in having understood the strategic importance for his community to reconclect. this clear energy to put it at the service of his community.

And there were other mayors capable of even only san martino contemporary art: heritage approaching similar intuitions, there were it. This is to say that not all administrators are always. in any case the usual chipboard that we are forced to observe too often. Not all administrators are soloists of the Raglio to whom we are often forced to assist in their amazing performances.

And then. inevitable like a te deum, it is the prosody of the stammers of the I would like but I can’t. The laughing of the many who would like to sing despite not having any voice to do it.

The plethora of peers, of applicants attention, of the forced of the catwalks, of the miserable in search of author. All perpetually in the anxiety of getting the attention they do not deserve. But they believe they deserve. And then a biscroma. a diesis is not enough to define a score, in these cases only the reading of the De san martino contemporary art: heritage Homini dignite of the excellent Pico della Mirandola would be enough.

Or, more plausibly, a excercoch would be enough.
