Countless and outstanding examples of artists portraying each other can be traced throughout the history of art.
On April 25th, 22 Italian painters (Paola Angelini, Alessia Armeni, Antonio Bardino, Angelo Bellobono, Lorenza Boisi, Maurizio Bongiovanni, Jacopo Casadei, Sabrina Casadei, Giulio Catelli, Lorenzo Di Lucido, Gianluca Di Pasquale, Massimiliano Fabbri, Elisa Filomena, Alessandro Finocchiaro, Agnese Guido, Sebastiano Impellizzeri, Filippo La Vaccara, Luigi Massari, Beatrice Meoni, Vera Portatadino, Marco Salvetti, Enrico Tealdi) will meet each other at MARS for an unheard-of venture based on the relay competition.
During a sequence of mutual commitments, the visual artists will pass the baton, namely the paintbrush, and every single one of them will be both model and then artist.
In a frantic succession that would even kill the horses, painters from every part of Italy, from dawn till dusk, will pursue each other in a reckless race, in a collective experience, in a celebration of Painting… a true Painting festivity to which art enthusiasts are warmly invited.
It’s about being portrayed and portraying the next artist in a precipitous relay race between artists who, in some cases, have never even met each other before.
