FLASHBACK is back in its innovative format by offering again the contemporaneity of historicized art. An example of cultural syncretism: 43 of the best worldwide galleries, two exhibitions, five meetings, four musical performances, and four video-broadcasts shall show that real richness lays in differences.
From November 3 through 6 FLASHBACK – all art is contemporary, the ancient and modern art fair, directed by Stefania Poddighe and Ginevra Pucci, holds its fourth edition. In these few years, the Fair managed to position itself at national and international level. Loyal to its claim all art is contemporary, the innovative format has been successful thanks to the originality and contemporaneity of its language.
The exhibition has grown exponentially throughout these years, both in terms of quality and figures, confirming it’s being a fair with prestigious presences worldwide, but of intentionally reduced size; FLASHBACK has proven its ability to combine culture and market in one equation whose result is knowledge as a tool to orient the choice of the individuals.
The program of the fourth edition underlines such research by proposing a reflection on a New syncretism, i.e. the meeting of different cultures and times, which generates blends, interactions and fusions among heterogeneous cultural elements that occur mainly as a result of large migrations of peoples or of hegemonic expansions. Hence, syncretism as an anthropological project: i.e. a mix of codes that—by recombining the artistic, social and ethnic differences—show their true richness.
