A review of young Italian artists: a focus on forms on the frontier between video art and documentary cinema. A porous frontier where the appearance of the real takes on the waste and lacerations until it produces plain glances and even piercing ones.

Works by young artists that explore the mysteries of this relationship: archive traces, poems of light, visual strips at the edge of aesthetic experience, where the real is to be constantly reinvented and documentary cinema is the opposite of a model of certainty. Corpo Sensibile aims also to recompose a common generational field.

The proposed artists, after a heterogeneous period of training in Italy, are aged in their thirties and are experiencing an international dimension marked by residencies and collaborations capable of combining poetry and languages of contemporary art, participating in film festivals or exhibitions in museums or galleries in the more classical distribution channels for visual art.
