Artwork Reflects on Global Conflicts and Political Tensions in 2009

The work 'Carnevali, Variazioni sul modello di Kraepelin' by Alessandro Iachino and Anita Romanello references multiple international incidents from 2009. In January, an Israeli military operation struck the Al-Fakhura school in Jabalia refugee camp, resulting in numerous child casualties. Diplomatic tensions escalated between Russia and Ukraine over gas transit suspensions. Benjamin Netanyahu began his second term as Israeli prime minister. In June, Iranian protests following disputed elections led to violent suppression, including the death of philosophy student Neda Agha-Soltan. The artwork engages with these events through its conceptual framework.
