Quotidiana 2011: Scouting for Future Biennales in Padua
The Quotidiana 2011 exhibition in Padua showcases emerging artists, with Claudia Rossini's daily window photographs and Teodoro Lupo's exploration of abandoned public spaces. Lorenzo Mazzi's 120-meter electric cable creates a light source and obstacle. The event includes Q Esposizione, Q aperta, and Q a parole, addressing sustainability and research promotion. Participants can nominate for the Biennale of Young Artists from Europe and the Mediterranean in Thessaloniki and win a residency at NAC in Rotterdam. However, the exhibition suffers from inadequate spaces and uneven project quality, possibly due to too many competitions or lax selection. The city's lack of follow-up policies hinders the art scene.
