Starting from the first world war, in fact, Turin, capital of Italian industry, is at the center of considerable migration from the South was heading north. Women and men went in the hope of finding better living conditions. What has changed today? And what does contemporary art? Perhaps nothing has actually changed in the continuous journey from the south to the north of Italy. Those that for sure, though, have transformed are the protagonists of this migration and places of departure and arrival here involved. Sicily, with all its contradictions, is now present as a basin always original and vibrant artists that are difficult to recognize, however, only in the art system - cultural island, which often fails to follow the dynamic excitement of this phenomenon. Turin, however, by now, has abandoned the role of the Italian capital industry for more qualified to wear the dress and glittering capital of Italian contemporary art. It is precisely this transformation of the places that takes the short circuit between North and South is therefore reborn the need to move, to migrate, to reach places where your creative know-how to help you find the most suitable size. Here, at the Space Azimut, South and North meet again in a balanced dialogue through art. Sicily, represented by several works by Marcello Buffa, Andrea Buglisi, Angel Crazyone, Martina Di Trapani, Miriam Iervolino, Except The Noble, Cosimo Piediscalzi, Sara Rizzo and Vincenzo Todaro, no longer returns to Turin with the cardboard suitcase and resignation of those who leave what he knows and loves not welcoming to an unknown, but with the unconventional creativity with the art of those who live their remoteness as an added value, with the artistic spirit that animates the Island for centuries and even today roaring back as the most fair TIGRE forest.
