CALENTAMIENTO
a project of Vaste Programme curated by Irene Angenica
2022 - 2024
Following a period of residency supported by the Fondazione OELLE Mediterraneo Antico and at the invitation of viaraffineria, the visual artists' collective Vaste Programme developed the project Calentamiento, curated by Irene Angenica.
Starting from the observation of the numerous fires in southern Italy during their residency in Catania, and broadening their reflection to the fires that were burning forests all over the world in the same year (California, Greece, Siberia, Australia, Amazonia, Turkey), they launched an ironic-critical project on the theme of climate change, composed of several stages.
Calentamiento was first presented in the spaces of viaraffineria in Catania from 29 July to 1 August 2022, and later on 6 October 2022 at Fondazione smART - polo per l'arte in Rome, 15 June 2023 at Manifattura Tabacchi in Florence, 18 July 2023 at Camera Torino and 10 October 2024 at Condominio in Milan.
Calentamiento is also a limited edition vinyl. You can order your copy here
