IIS Santa Caterina Da Siena, Milano
Imagine a post-apocalyptic world with only a few technology-less survivors. They have lost all technical and scientific knowledge … Imagine a new society that must begin again and evolve on the basis of a series of decisions.
This is the idea developed by Jacopo Nocentini with 26 students following Class 3B – “Commercial Promotion and Advertising” Curricula – at the Istituto Santa Caterina da Siena in Milan, directed by Antonella Maria Benedetta Cutro. Activities will be coordinated by Professor Simone Massafra.
Starting with an analysis of our society, the course ends with the creation of a artefact, an artist’s book, a guide to a new society: the “Galactic Guide for Artists” will be showcased at the Rome Maxxi during the Media Art Festival 2018 (May 17-19, 2018).
