La mostra si articola attorno a quattro temi centrali: Il corpo come territorio; Memoria e desiderio; Confini e fratture; Mondi immaginati e nuove cartografie.
The group exhibition “The Line That Holds: Cartographies of the Seen and Unseen” brings together Italian and Israeli artists around the themes of maps, borders, identities, and memory. Alongside official cartographies, the works on display propose other ways of mapping the world, tied to the body, memory, migration, uprooting, and imagination.
The exhibition is organized around four central themes: The Body as Territory; Memory and Desire; Borders and Fractures; Imagined Worlds and New Cartographies.
