The term " Isolitudine " was coined by the Sicilian Gesualdo Bufalino in the novel "Diceria dell'untore" but pride in one's roots and isolation are also common to Sardinians . Hence the idea of the collective exhibition curated by Marco Ceraglia and which will be inaugurated on Friday at 6 pm in the Archaeological Civic Museum at the Poor Clares of Ozieri .
The exhibition will be open until September 30th . Hours: Tuesday to Friday 9-13 and 15-19, Saturday and Sunday 10-13 and 15-18.
“Isolitudine” collects the contributions of 9 artists : Igino Panzino, Josephine Sassu, Giusy Calia, Stefano Serusi, Gabriella Locci, Alberto Soi, Mario Fois, Caterina Lai and Marilena Pitturru. Also exhibiting 5 photographers: Davide Virdis, Pierluigi Dessì, Stefano Pia, Gigliola Lai, Ilaria Pisoni and Francesca Esposito.
The curator explains: "The sea is a liquid boundary that, if on the one hand makes a land an island, on the other hand it marks the character of those who are born there, live there, of those who relate deeply to an island" . “For this story of isolation - he continues - I make my own the concept developed by Carl Jung, the collective unconscious in its most schematic definition: 'Deposit of the experience of humanity, present in every single individual'".
Also involved were the journalists Celestino Tabasso and Giacomo Mameli ; the theater director Sante Maurizi and the film director Giovanni Columbu ; the semiologist Francesco Sedda ; the biologist Vittorio Gazale , the seafarer Eugenio Cossu , the psychologist Antonina Serra and the art critic Mariolina Cosseddu .
