Opening June 20 at 6 pm. Organization and Idealization: Anna Isopo Arte Borgo Gallery and Monica Ferrarini Association M.F. Eventi LOCATION The exhibition involves artists who will represent, according to their own charge of style and research, the philosophic concept of here and now which is expressed by the exhibition title. In a finite and limited dimension where the human being lives, often closed in a materialistic and hectic reality which tends to lose and underestimate the spiritual dimension, art becomes a tool to open the door of infinity and it reveals new openings to the world. The exposed artworks aim to send to the spectator a reminder for enjoying the present, here and now, with the consciousness of the own interior emotions and with the harmonization between the Self and the Universe. Each artist could participate with one or more artworks.
