MAM Museum of Modern Art and Mail Art Montecarotto (AN)
16 October 2024 | 10 January 2025 Opening | Wednesday 16 October 2024 | at 18.00
On the occasion of the M.A.D. Mail Art Day 2024 project, two events will be held at MAM Museum of Modern Art and Mail Art in Montecarotto (AN) and at Musinf Museum of Information in Senigallia, curated respectively by Ruggero Maggi and Stefano Schiavoni.
The M.A.D. Mail Art Day project | October 16 | International Mail Art Day was launched at the end of 2022 by Ruggero Maggi to remember Ray Johnson, born on October 16 and defined as “the most famous unknown artist in New York”. By founding the New York Correspondence School in 1962, with which he mocked the various correspondence art schools that were springing up in the US at the time, he marked with this explosive initial moment, the Big Bang of Mail Art.
very happy to be in these two shows:
“MAIL ART POETRY – POETRY IS RESISTANCE” Arte Correo collateral project to the first international biennial of Argentine experimental poetry POSVERSO, strongly desired by Silvio De Gracia, who has expanded the experimental research in more multidisciplinary fields, involving artists from all over the world with a branched and articulated diffusion of culture and of LIVE ART in Buenos Aires and Argentina. Poetry and resistance, war and poetry, one has been trying for centuries to annihilate the other with oppression, with violence, but Poetry is difficult to defeat. It will always find a way to emerge in the most unexpected places, in the subways of a bombed London, in the tunnels of underground cities, in muddy trenches. The trench is an emblem of defense, but also a line from which an attack can start... the attack of Poetry towards a world that seems to have forgotten it, seems to have made it obsolete, but poets and artists have always been on the front line to fight with pens and
pencils the insane desire of violence. Mail Art represents one of the most powerful and deflagrating poetic weapons to make one's "voice" heard.
UTSANGA Visual poetry and mail art have always been inseparable companions on the road. Poetry: food of life… poetic chrysalis of mail art, exercise of creative freedom and restlessness of the soul with which to plough through the entire world. This mail art project curated by Francesco Aprile, Vincenzo Lagalla and Ruggero Maggi wants to celebrate 10 years of work and research by Utsanga, through some exhibition moments in different locations, with the participation of hundreds of international artists. Utsanga.it is an online magazine about liminal analysis. The term “utsanga” is a Sanskrit word that meaning “womb, embrace”. The magazine was founded by Francesco Aprile and Cristiano Caggiula in 2014. Border that preludes the beyond, line that expands becoming a conceptual laboratory, a research center, an archive.

...from wolf land in north Portugal (Galicia) two wolf tales....
Wolf Queen 2022 tells the first century legend of Queen Lupa. It was her territory, where the body of St. James was carried 'in a stone boat drifting from the Mediterranean' to be buried by his disciples. A crazy story on both sides, Queen Lupa outwitted Romans, Visigoths, Catholic Church, local rulers, Muslim conquerers, and Spanish empire to remain unconquered. An 11th century monk writes about her in his travel book written for the Pope on the pilgrimage path to St. James' burial site in Santiago Cathedral. The monk tries to erase, propagandise and slander Queen Lupa at the same time. Meanwhile the Church was creating St. James patron of the crusades. Portuguese singer Tamara Pereira. Planet of Dreams
Red Hood is from MauMau Blood Dreams 2024, a film and print series. I became aware of the fairytales and fables that originated in Galicia's north Portugal while researching the 2022 Wolf Queen film. The Neolithic tales morphed through millennium, revealing dark truths about our nature. Today these stories are the narrative of film, fiction, and visual arts. And I decided I wanted to write my own...in process...MauMau Blood Dreams
"Like a fairytale, the further on, the more sinister…”
Как в сказке, чем дальше тем страшнее
Einstein is credited as having said: “If you want your children to be intelligent, read them fairy tales. If you want them to be very intelligent, read them more fairy tales.”

MauMau Blood Dreams 2024 follow the fairytale and fable story form, into the original, dark and primordial consciousness that brings us to our present world narrative. The first video is Moon Is A Dagger
The 2008 video series Signs, Wishes &Wonders draws on the same form to produce contemporary video fable: WhisperWish, Once Upon A Sign, The Wicked Witch Gets Her Wish.
