ROSSOCONTEMPORANEO,
nuovo spazio espositivo dedicato alle arti contemporanee ed atelier di comunicazione creativa e design.
Un progetto ambizioso, in Terra Ionica, che segna l’evoluzione di un lungo percorso, nel panorama ampio della creatività e dell’arte contemporanea, del suo fondatore, Angelo Raffaele Villani, architetto e curatore tarantino.
ROSSOCONTEMPORANEO nasce sovrapponendo esperienze precedenti, maturate tra Abruzzo e Puglia nell’ultimo decennio, prima con Atelier777 Contemporary Art a Pescara e successivamente con OpificioCreativo. Pur nella variabilità delle esperienze, gli obiettivi restano identici: promuovere la ricerca della giovane arte contemporanea italiana, preferibilmente under 40, di artisti giovani e dalla eccezionale carica espressiva.
Particolare attenzione ROSSOCONTEMPORANEO la concentrerà sulle ricerche dei giovani artisti pugliesi.
“I FILI DI ERSILIA” a cura di Angelo Raffaele Villani è l’evento di apertura di ROSSOCONTEMPORANEO.
A Ersilia, per stabilire i rapporti che reggono la vita della città, gli abitanti tendono dei fili tra gli spigoli delle case, bianchi o neri o grigi o bianco-e-neri a seconda se segnano relazioni di parentela, scambio, autorità, rappresentanza. Quando i fili sono tanti che non ci si può più passare in mezzo, gli abitanti vanno via: le case vengono smontate; restano solo i fili e i sostegni dei fili. Dalla costa d'un monte, accampati con le masserizie, i profughi di Ersilia guardano l'intrico di fili tesi e pali che s'innalza nella pianura. È quello ancora la città di Ersilia, e loro sono niente. Riedificano Ersilia altrove. Tessono con i fili una figura simile che vorrebbero più complicata e insieme più regolare dell'altra.
Poi l'abbandonano e trasportano ancora più lontano sé e le case. Così viaggiando nel territorio di Ersilia incontri le rovine delle città abbandonate, senza le mura che non durano, senza le ossa dei morti che il vento fa rotolare: ragnatele di rapporti intricati che cercano una forma.
(da: Le Città Invisibili di Italo Calvino)
Dalla carica poetica e fantastica di una delle più interessanti città raccontate da Italo Calvino nel suo “Le Città Invisibili”, al groviglio di ragnatele quotidiane che segnano rapporti, relazioni, richiami per ognuno di noi, il passo è breve. Ragnatele che ci appartengono intimamente, bagaglio indissolubile di memoria, emozioni, colori, sentimenti, profumi, e che metaforicamente raccontano la complessità delle esperienze e delle ricerche artistiche pugliesi, in una ramificazione tentacolare, in un diffondersi imperioso verso luoghi altri, verso Ersilie nuove e sempre diverse.
Un confronto vivo tra esperienze del fare arte in Puglia, o per chi è pugliese, ma lavora fuori regione.
Quattordici artisti, tutti pugliesi, in un intreccio inusuale di fili mentali, di collegamenti ipotetici tra memoria e ricerche artistiche maturate nella terra d’origine, che ad un naturale sentimento di appartenenza, spesso sovrappongono le più ricche e svariate contaminazioni esterne, legando così la propria arte ad ambienti ed influenze differenziate.
Con “I FILI DI ERSILIA” si esalta una volontà di ricerca nel segno della varietà e della ricchezza espressiva del contemporaneo pugliese. Testimonianze coinvolgenti i più svariati ambiti della ricerca artistica, compresi proprio quei linguaggi multimediali ormai parte integrante dell’esperienza contemporanea.
Nelle tele e nei lavori di Marino, Massari, Scialpi e Solito, si legge forte una rappresentazione inquieta, sofferta, nelle quali domina spesso un chiaro messaggio sociale, talvolta politico o ideologico. Un senso d’inquietudine evidenziato anche da una rappresentazione rapida e gestuale, dal segno fresco e deciso.
Petrilli presenta un’arte digitale carica di un calore e di una felice manualità, nei tratteggi e nei decisi chiaroscuri. Opere di grande sensualità che hanno per protagonista seducenti figure femminili dall’erotismo vigoroso.
Calore nella gestualità espressiva la ritroviamo nei disegni di Molinaro. Una stratificazione d’immagini sapientemente giocate prospetticamente che hanno per riferimento la cultura pop e il mondo dell’illustrazione. Segni quasi incisi, utilizzando china e grafite di durezze diverse, nella totale assenza del colore.
L’universo fantastico di Muserra si lega indissolubilmente al fumetto e al digitale. Un mix di sensazioni attinte dai media, dal cinema e dalla musica, con uno stile personale ed inconfondibile. La figura umana è il fulcro della composizione con una rappresentazione inquietante ed irrequieta.
Il package scultoreo di Francolino, parte dai cosiddetti prodotti del consumismo, dalle icone celebrate dalla pubblicità e dai mass-media, decontestualizzandoli e ricontestualizzandoli sotto spoglie diverse, in un mix di contenuti ironici, politici, sociali, dal chiaro sapore Pop Art.
Nella performance di Fontana, si fondono differenti linguaggi (arte visiva, canto e danza), per raccontare l’antico gioco della “campana”, quale metafora dell’aspirazione umana al miglioramento, della ricerca della meta, del paradiso.
Stessa tematica, seppur con modi e forme differenti, si affronta nel video presentato da Fiorella (dream), dove la leggerezza e la spensieratezza della rincorsa ai propri sogni, si scontra con la difficoltà palese dell’inarrivabilità degli stessi.
La mostra, infine, tocca le diverse anime di un’arte pseudo illegale, quale la street art, ormai sdoganata e perfettamente integrata, con le opere di Leg, Nocci, Rosato e Stencilnoire, tra spray, stencil e tag. Un’arte da strada tanto nobilitata da porsi come riferimento estetico delle generazioni più giovani, in sintonia perfetta con i loro linguaggi e valori estetici.
Gli artisti:
Raffaele Fiorella, Fabrizio Fontana, Andrea Francolino, Leg, Mariateresa Marino, Luigi Massari, Dario Molinaro, Michela Muserra, Nocci, Giuseppe Petrilli, Enzo Rosato, Patrizia Emma Scialpi, Giuditta Solito, Stencilnoire

Composite Ionic capital. The impost block has crosses and vegetal decoration. From 5th century AD.
Byzantine Museum, Thessaloniki, Greece.
Chiswick House, London, Great-Britain.
Ionic Temple in the Orange Tree Garden. The Ionic Temple is circular in form and is derived from either the Pantheon in Rome or possibly from the Temple of Romulus. The portico of this temple is derived from the Temple of Portunus which William Kent illustrates in the ceiling of the Red Velvet Room within the Villa. Immediately in front of the Temple lies a circular pool of water with a small obelisk positioned in its centre.
Lord Burlington's garden at Chiswick was one of the first to include garden buildings and ancient statues which were to symbolically evoke the mood and appearance of ancient Rome. Soon after other English gardens such as Stourhead, Stowe, West Wycombe, Holkham, and Rousham were to follow suit, creating a type of garden which eventually would become known internationally as the English Landscape Garden. Lord Burlington's gardens at Chiswick had a number of these fabriques including the Ionic Temple, Bagnio, Pagan Temple, Rustic House, and two Deer Houses.
Built by Lord Burlington, early 18th century and Grade I listed. Seen through one of the ten view-frames dotted about the grounds which indicate a good aspect and provide some historical details. An audio tour is also available on-line. London Borough of Hounslow.

Hudson Hall, 1 Stockwell Green. Buidling in Jacobean style opened on March 8 1848 as an educational institute at the expense of the congregation of Stockwell New Chapel.
British History description (a mine of information)
On the opposite side of Stockwell Green from the Congregational Church stands a building in Jacobean Style now used for commercial purposes. It was opened on March 9, 1848 as an Educational Institute at the expense of the congretion of Stockwell New Chapel. Besides being used for non-sectarian schools it was also used for meetings and lectures. Despite mutilation and disfiguring painting, the front survives as an interesting and fairly scholarly example of Jacobean revivalism. From the brick face project three flat bays, each of two lofty storey. The ground storey of the middle bay has been altered, but that on each side contains an arched doorway between Doric columns that support an entablature, and a dwarf intermediate stage with three-light window flanked by tapered Ionic pilasters carrying a second enablature. In the second storey is a large rectangular window divided by mullions and transoms into three tiers of three lights. The quoined angles rise to a crowning entablature and a parapet ornamented with quatrefoils in panels. A smililar window forming the second storey is surmounted by a curved and stepped gable.
The Temple of Artemis at Sardis was one of the largest shrines of the Classical World, only three other Ionic temples rivalled it for size, the Artemis Temple at Ephesus, the Apollo Temple at Didyma, and the Hera Temple on Samos. (all of which bar Samos we visited on this trip).
Despite it's ruined condition with only two of the columns surviving at full height the enormous scale of the building continues to inspire awe, several Ionic capitals stand at ground level and give a sense of the fine detail as well as impressive size.
At the rear of the temple is a small ruined Byzantine chapel, suggesting the great building must have been converted to Christian use before it's eventual demise.
The temple we see today was begun c300 BC but left unfinished until the Roman period, when renovation was also necessary following earthquake damage. The decorative finishes were never completed, as is attested by the unfluted columns.

The water fountain outside the ION attracts crowds young and old -ok mostly young but everyone certainly enjoys watching the colourful lights and the alternating water spouts. Although the fountain runs pretty much constantly for their christmas light up they have done a mini 'light show' of sorts with music. The colour of the lights kept changing as did the reflections in the water so it was tricky to time the peak of the water fountain along with the desired (matching) colour of the giant screen thing on the wall of the ION which also created a reflection in the water on the steps.

Ionic Temple, lake and obelisk, Chiswick House Gardens, Chiswick, 1977

Chiswick House Gardens is one of London's less well known parks, but one of the most interesting. I went there occasionally with my family, and we used to take photography classes there, at least until we lost a student. Actually we usually lost students on photography trips, at least in later years when they would decide to go clubbing rather than travel back with us. But this was one of the first times, and we did get rather worried, and later made a complaint to the police who had grabbed him for running across the park when he realised he was late and was trying to catch up with us, and kept him locked in the police station without allowing him to contact anyone. Apparently he kept telling them they could check with the college but they didn't.
As usual on such outings I took a few pictures myself, as well as dispensing advice to those who sought it and some who didn't. The one drawback of Chiswick House Gardens was that it was too far to the nearest pub, where on some such occasions my colleague and I would retire at lunch.
If you don't know the park it is worth a visit. Bill Brandt took a couple of memorable pictures there and Grade I listed Chiswick House is one of the finest examples of Neo-Palladian architecture in the country and the gardens were created by William Kent. I've never made a really good picture there!

Sheriff Courts 1842, last re-modelled by Clarke & Bell in 1892
Originally erected as Glasgow's municipal and county buildings - i.e. its town hall, this massive and presently dilapidated Greek Revival building was the result of a clever competition winning design by Clarke & Bell, Edin. Of particular note is the south portico of Ionic columns built above a plinth exquisitely carved with a frieze of classical, robed figures. The colonnade of fluted Corinthian columns facing Garth Street marks the position of the former Merchant House which once faced squarely onto its colleagues in the Trades House. Despite its grand presence and grandiose occupant, the Sheriff Courts have had a curiously 'jilted' history - the council moving to the City Chambers in 1888, the Merchants House moving to its new premises opposite in 1875 and finally the court itself relocating to the Gorbals in 1982… After many years of vacancy however, a scheme of conversion is now ongoing.

Trying out ‘typical Liz sketches’ in a moleskine sketchbook – this are surprisingly fun to do – watercolour does have the wierdest relationship with the paper. It seems that it just sits on top the first brush stroke – but the second soaks in... I think that is what is happening but I will have to experiment some more to see if this is really the case.
The Bouleuterion is one of the best preserved buildings in the whole of the ancient city. Strabo refers to the existence of a Gerontikon or Senate House at Nysa, bt this must be a predecessor to the present building. The bouleuterion is situated in the eastern half of the site and is reached from the Theatre, by means of the path that runs past the Market Basilica and the row of Shops, while to the east lies the Agora. The Bouleuterion has a square exterior plan, measuring 23,44 X 27,24 metres, but has a semicircular shape inside, forming a banked auditorium or cavea of 12 rows of seats, divided into four segments by five stairways. Its frontage comprises an open vestibule, but the building's thick walls indicate that the main body of the Bouleuterion was roofed. On the north side of the building is a vaulted gallery, containing four elliptical columns, set about 5 metres apart. On the south side are five doorways providing entrances to the building, while side passages (paradoi) give access to the orchestra. The floor of the orchestra is paved with marble opus sectile, arranged in a star pattern comprising square an octagonal slabs and surrounded by other rectangular panels. This floor had earlier been exposed to the elements and, in order to preserve it from further damage, the area was covered up in 1995. It is estimated that the Bouleuterion had a capacity of about 600-800. The south vestibule is decorated with a polychrome mosaic of geometric design. A pool was added to this part of the building at a late date in its history, together with a row of statue bases. Architectural fragments found in the Bouleuterion date it to the 1st century AD, but it is clear from other decorative elements and an inscription referring to the empresses Faustina the Elder the Younger that it also underwent alterations in the middle of the 2nd century AD.
Nysa ad Meander antik kentinin en iyi korunmuş yapılarından birisi Buleuterion'dur. Strabon, bu yapıyı Gerontikon (Yaşlılar Meclisi) olarak tanımlamıştır. Bouleuterion, antik kentin doğu kesiminde, tiyatronun güneydoğusundaki Pazar Bazilikası ve Dükkanlar geçildikten sonra gelinen bir alanda yer almaktadır. Yapının doğusunda kentin Agorası bulunmaktadır. Bouleuterion dikdörtgen planlı olarak inşa edilmiş olup, iç kısmında yarım daire şeklindeki Cavea (Theatron) kısmı yer almaktadır. Bouleterion'un 23,40 X 27,24 m. ölçüsündeki bu dikdörtgen şekilli esas yapısının önünde ise üstü açık olan bir ön salon kısmı bulunmaktadır. Yapının oturma sıraları 12 adettir ve bunlar 5 merdiven sırası ile 4 bölüme ayrılmıştır. Bouleuterion'un kalın duvarları yapının üstünün örtülü olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Yapının kuzey kısmında kemerli bir galeri bulunmaktadır ve burada yaklaşık 5 m. aralıklarla yerleştirilmiş olan 4 adet eliptik sütun vardır. Yapıya güneydeki 5 adet kapıdan girilmektedir. Ayıca, orkestraya girişte, yanlarda da paradoslar bulunmaktadır. Nysa'daki bu Bouleuterion'un orkestra kısmında ortada, orijinalinde eşkenar dörtgen ışıklı sekizgen göbekli bir yıldız motifinin oluşturduğu opus sectile taban kaplamasını düzgün dikdörtgen mermer plakalar çevrelemektedir. Doğanın tahribatına açık olan bu mermer kaplamalar Nysa'da 1995 yılında yapılan kazı ve onarım çalışmaları sırasında üstü örtülerek koruma altına alınmıştır. Nysa Bouleuterion'unun yaklaşık 600 ile 800 kişiyi alabilecek kapasitede olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Yapının güneyindeki salonun döşemesinin çeşitli renklerdeki geometrik motiflerle süslü bir mozaikle kaplı olduğu görülmektedir. Yapıya geç bir tarihte eklendiği düşünülen güneydeki bu kısımda bir havuz ile bir dizi halinde sıralanmış olan çeşitli heykel kaidelerinin bulunduğu görülmektedir.
Bouleuterion'da MS 1. yüzyıla tarihlenebilen mimari parçalar bulunmaktadır. Ayrıca MS 2. yüzyıla ait olan mimari süslemeler ile bir yazıtta imparatoriçe genç ve yaşlı Faustina'lara değinilmesi de yapının Roma İmparatorluk devrinde Antoninler döneminde (MS 2. yüzyılın ortası) bir değişiklik gördüğüne işaret etmektedir.
Bouleuterion'da ilk kez 1907 ve 1909 yıllarında W.von Diest başkanlığında sürdürülen çalışmalar, yapı hakkında genel bilgilere ulaşmak için sondaj şeklinde gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapıda geniş kapsamlı kazı çalışmalarını 1921 ve 1922 yıllarında Yunanlı Arkeolog K. Kouriniotis gerçekleştirmiştir. Bu çalışmalar Kurtuluş Savaşı sırasında çok hızlı bir şekilde sürdürülmüş, koilon (cavea) ile scaenae frons tamamen kazılarak ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Ancak yapı tam anlamıyla araştırılıp yayını yapılmamıştır. B çalışmalarda ortaya çıkan toprak ve moloz yapının güneydoğusundaki alanda biriktirilmiştir. 1960'lı yıllarda zamanla toprakla dolan Bouleuterion'da İzmir Arkeoloji Müzesi Müdürlüğü'nce tekrar kazılara başlanmıştır. Ancak bu çalışmaların da sonuçları yayınlanmamıştır.
1990 yılından itibaren Prof. Dr. Vedat İDİL başkanlığında yürütülen kazılarda ise, 1997 yılında kısa süreli olarak Bouleuterion'un orkestrasında, 1998 ve 2002 yıllarında yapının kuzeyinde ve güneybatı köşesinde birer açma gerçekleştirilmiş, 2006 yılından itibaren Bouleuterion'un güney girişinin önündeki stoaların tespitine, Bouleuterion'un Agora ile arasındaki caddeye (Cardo Maximum) çıkışına ve sırtını Doğu Stoa'ya veren "Cardo Maximus" üzerindeki dükkanlara odaklanılmıştır.
Son yıllarda yapılan yeni tespitlere göre, Bouleuterion'un güneydeki beş ayrı çıkışı, doğu, batı, kuzey ve güney stoaları çevrelenmiş bir alana bağlanmakta, bu alanı çevreleyen doğu stoanın içindeki bir koridor ile de Bouleuterion - Agora bağlantısını sağlayacak şekilde Cardo Maxsimus'a çıkıldığı anlaşılmıştır.
