L’istinto di una Istituzione
Sulla Fondazione Bevilacqua La Masa e i sintomi di una storia inquieta
abstract
The text intends to propose a reflection on the ways in which the relationship between an institution is shown. This relationship arises to take care of art and young artists, and the artists themselves; between the artist’s request that seeks a space for expressing and enhancing his/her work, and an institutional, public body that tries to accommodate this request giving form, visibility, communicability to the artistic expression. This comparison in its complexity, with its tensions and lacerations, seems to characterize the history of the Bevilacqua La Masa Foundation, beyond the historical-artistic events that surround its life, as if we were facing a deeper theoretical phenomenon, which has always characterized the intuition of Felicity, perhaps instinctive, but brilliant, which is the basis of every political-management discourse of the artistic phenomenon.
