We denounce, we fight, we transform with Art. This is the ambition of “We have everything, the rest is missing”
the first edition of the widespread transdisciplinary Quadrennial dedicated to Sicily and organized by Farm
Cultural Park with the support of Di Stefano, two Sicilian realities that over the years, in different ways,
they tried to tell the story of contemporary Sicily, leaving aside clichés and stereotypes and giving
space for those who have chosen to stay on this controversial island and create something beautiful and good.
Industria 01, which has been following the communication of the confectionery company for years, has done its utmost to ensure that Di Stefano and Farm
Cultural Park got to know each other better and collaborated with each other. This is how the project was born in 2022,
already in its second edition, “Magnum, you deserve a Sicilian panettone”, a contest aimed at knowing the
stories of those who have distinguished themselves for kind and altruistic actions towards other people or in support and protection of assets
and community places. The partnership between Di Stefano and Farm Cultural Park has strengthened over time, enough to see them
also work together on the launch of the four-yearly We have everything, the rest is missing.
After the successful opening of the “We Everything Manca il Resto” Pavilions in Mazzarino on May 12th
with works by Lorenzo Romano and Azzurra Messina, Salvo Ligama, Anne-Clémence de Groléè, Carmelo Nicotra,
Roberto Collodoro, Fabio Alfano and Calogero Palacino’s installation are preparing for a new Sicilian Odyssey for
the whole month of June with many prestigious international guests.
On June 8th at 4 pm in Mazzarino at Palazzo Tortorici two special projects will be presented: “Terraformation”
a project curated by Andrea Mineo of the Mayer Pavilion initiative in Berlin with guest artists Rachel Harris,
Sandra Chrzanowski, Luïza Luz, Andries De Lange and Vincenzo Fiore Marrese who during the month of June
they will be in residence in the Butera countryside to take the first steps and create an Earth Institution, in which nature guides its construction and all future artistic interventions; and LandRush curated by artist-journalists Frauke Huber and Uwe H.Martin. “Agriculture drives climate change, extinction, erosion and water depletion. It’s the most transformative thing humans are doing to the planet. However, most people don’t realize how fragile our food systems are.”
On 9 June at 7pm in Favara in the Farm Riad, a big welcome party for the collective of European directors Movimento Oficina de Cinema Colaborativo who during their stay will make “Instant Movies” dedicated to Sicily, and for all the teachers and students of the Woodbury School of Architecture in Los Angeles who will also be involved in the creation of a Pavilion.
