Firetti Contemporary is pleased to participate in The 17th edition of ArtVerona #ITALIANSYSTEM, under the art direction of Stefano Raimondi. The gallery will be participating in the "Curated by" section, a new section focusing on the design collaboration that galleries develop with external curators to create portions of their exhibition and critical programme.
Curated by Sona Stepanyan, Firetti Contemporary presents The Continuous Line that Binds us to Each Other, a group exhibition of three women artists, Sawsan Al Bahar, Annie Kurkdjian and Nazik Armenakyan. These artists reveal historical and current actual socio-political contexts of their native Armenia, Lebanon, and Syria via sensual allegorical images and personal narratives embedded in mediums of photography, painting, and drawings. An important common feature of their artistic practice becomes a will for liberation and a decline of falling victim to existing rules and conventions. As a result, sharp, sincere visual statements arise in which artists bring to the surface and establish eye contact with one's deep inner unconscious — fear, shame, guilt, sexuality, despair, and pry.
