Exactly a century after the establishment of commemorative monuments and parks built in Italy in the aftermath of the First World War to honour the fallen, the exhibition initiated by the ICCD in Rome, curated by Francesca Fabiani and Alessandro Coco, raises questions around the theme of the monument and memory by proposing a selection of contemporary works. These are the result of heterogeneous projects ranging from performance to installation, and from documentary photography to illustration. The eight participating artists, each through their own language, have activated new narratives for exploring not only military but also cultural and social aspects of the First World War.
