Storie urbane: 15 artists from 8 different Countries have been invited to Reggio Emilia to carry out a research project with the city as subject and the concept of limits as leading theme.
The works of the different artists will come together in a single exhibition that will be displayed in various location around the city.

To complete this experience a volume - bearing the title La cenere delle immagini. Spazi della memoria luoghi della perdita - will be published and distributed.
The Volume, edited by Riccardo Panettoni, published by Editore Marietti - Milan, questions the sense of limits expressed by the presence and the use made of images, investigating the existing boundaries between memory and loss in which the language of photography finds a place.
A video-documentary will also be produced on the project and on the work carried out by the artists.
