An exhibition created by small artists. It is “Che Mostra sta Mostra!”, an initiative created by educators and children of the Nido Scoiattolo in Asti with the aim of making the place perceived not only as an educational and cultural place, but also to highlight the emotional and of discovery, where adults are also welcome.
Thanks to the marked creativity of the children it was possible to compose a set of works ranging from painting to sculpture in an exciting journey marked by different rhythms in which it is possible to engage in a playful dialogue with the works and the artists. It is an exhibition of various material, both photographic and material and paper, which displays the creations of the boys and girls attending the Nido Scoiattolo, created on the basis of Loris Malaguzzi’s theory of the Hundred Languages.
“Boys and girls are equipped with a hundred languages and have the right to express them all through the proposal of educational activities that favor this process, building knowledge through the diversity of the various languages – explain the educators – Expressive languages are a combination of rigor, imagination, knowledge and sensitivity. The works on display are dialogues for the mind and the imagination. The main subjects remain the boys and girls with their thinking strategies, their knowledge processes, their relationships with the world and with others”.
“The exhibition – continue from nursery- it aims to be a path of research into the processes that develop in the creative act; such as exploratory curiosity, the intense relationship that is created with things, symbolic invention, metaphor, references, expressiveness. The role of the educator consists in providing competent listening to the visual and group language of the boys and girls, supporting them with non-overbearing interventions, all in harmony with the expressed individual autonomy”.
The exhibition will remain open to citizens with free admission from 28 June to 5 July from 5.30pm to 6.30pm, excluding Saturdays and Sundays, in the temporary location of the Nido Scoiattolo, Via Bocca 1.
Mayor Maurizio Rasero and councilor Loretta Bologna express their appreciation for “the initiative that gives voice to children’s creativity, opening to the public an exhibition created through the use of innovative pedagogical tools that encourage their expressiveness”.
