CampoSud 2021: Gramsci-inspired art camp spans Calasetta and Cagliari
The second edition of CampoSud, A Visionary Camp, Verso un'ecologia planetaria will take place from August to September 5, 2021, at Museo MACC in Calasetta and Cagliari, Sardinia. This initiative celebrates the 130th anniversary of Antonio Gramsci’s birth, delving into aesthetics and practice with an emphasis on issues pertinent to the South. It aims to offer community-driven alternatives to excessive production, advocating for radical ecology and mutualism. Founded by Genoese coral fishermen, Calasetta reflects its Tabarchino roots. Notable participants include Daniel Blanga Gubbay, Iain Chambers, Gabriella Riccio, Habib Ayeb, Lucrezia Cippitelli, and Marcello Cualbu. The program features workshops, collective writing, screenings, and concludes with an exhibition in Cagliari, alongside events like 'Arte Esplora' and a public lecture on civil disobedience.
