After a break of ten years, in Milan and Italy in general , recur initiatives led by artists who find space, determine schedules, looking for new exhibition formats and communication strategies. FANTASTIC!
Too bad you do not understand precisely why these new spaces by birth YOUNG who claim to be seeking a new, feel the need to receive a sort of baptism by institutionalized organization and now the rusty mechanics of the system, which does not offer anything new for some time. Via Farini who feel the need / interest of "putting their hands" on them and suggesting that they lend themselves well to the "game" institutional lecture end ago any germ of goodness will have existed at first in them. It is expected to open spaces and freedom of this kind, and thus one can not expect to be instrumental spaces to artists who "manage" to override the drawing of a normal artistic training as soon as possible and get into the good graces of the "puppeteers "art (art critics and curators).
expected from other areas of this kind, is expected above all an attitude that is really new !
The spaces above are:
Brown Project (Milan), Cherimus (Sulcis Iglesiente, Sardinia), Cripta747 (Torino), The Indian in the garden (itinerant), Gum study (Carrara), Mars (Milan ), Motel Lucie (Milan), Paloma Presents (Zurich)
*****
A comparison of this sort is certainly interesting, and it is important that there are still personality " promiscuous " (artists presenting other artists, who take care of a show, writing lyrics, and so on) to the direction these new realities. I emphasize the phrase because they often talk as if they were new a new creation in recent years, confessing, yet again, the error (fault?) Of the art system that seems to want "to ignorance" to produce intortabili ignorant and easily manipulated instead of making culture that generates thoughts, which in turn multiply thoughts (with eyes open and 360 °). Are not a new alternative (and thankfully all of that someone has wisely pointed out, see Cecilia Alemani) but I repeat, however, that they are welcome! Honestly though I can hardly look at these areas (especially to some) as a new and free, I think that is rather between the intentions there is a desire on the part of the artists themselves to be only self-promotion by offering nothing new, in fact maliciously thinking have guessed that before the real tangible difficulties of surviving as an artist today is easier to get space, offering space, rather than being an artist alone with their research work to gain visibility and opportunities, offering in exchange for "only" his own research.

But beyond these considerations of mine, I read with great pleasure Blog art-milano the post on this news (which had already piqued our interest) and declarations (though understandably so given partial) of the people involved and I hope that they really want to start seeing, reading, writing, speaking, creating art beyond the opportunities and conveniences. In short return to the search as needed! Being young should not be instinctive to do so? Instead of martens seem more cunning, more computers to one strategist. There is intellectual honesty in these spaces, non-profit? What drives them need? This I ask and it would be nice to know.
There is injury in fact, leave the benefit of the doubt, but for now I'm just saying: "Nothing new yet, bon voyage "
