Una macchina che ci raccolga tutti

                                                      7-8 Marzo Liceo Artistico Preziosissimo Sangue Monza
intorno allo stesso tavolo.

Un banchetto meccanizzato,
post-agricolo e post-industriale.

Una tavola più lunga, una tovaglia
più colorata, una pasta più
bizzarra.

Cosa portare con voi:

1 grembiule (o dei vestiti che si possono rovinare)
4 mollette da biancheria
1 paio di forbici
1 piatto, 1 forchetta, 1 cucchiaio e 1 bicchiere
penne e matite di vari colori
colori acrilici con pennelli

L’ultima cosa che vi chiediamo di portare è un pò
particolare: una manciata di “erbacce
commestibili”. Un esempio è l’aglio orsino, molto
comune nelle zone di Monza in Marzo, o il
tarassaco, o l’ortica e l’acetosa.

Insieme a queste erbacce commestivili vi
chiediamo di portare con voi una foto o una
mappa disegnata a mano che mostri dove le avete
raccolte.
Vi raccomandiamo di non raccogliere nulla che
sembri pericoloso - controllate su interent o
chiedete a qualcuno di vostra conoscenza prima
di raccogliere. Ci sono varie specie protette che
non possono essere raccolte per mantenere la
biodiversità locale.

Per raccogliere le foto abbiamo creato un
account Instagram dove ciascuno di voi potrà
postare le foto di dove avete raccolto queste
erbacce o la foto di un disegno o mappa che avete
creato per descrivere il luogo. Se non usate
Instagram portate una copia digitale su cellulare
o chiavetta USB. Vi chiediamo di raccogliere e
postare le foto con la location prima del 6 Marzo.

Nell’ampio territorio della Pianura Padana,
l’industrializzata Brianza e la sua capitale Monza sono
divenuti negli anni uno dei poli manifatturieri dell’Italia
del Nord. In un paesaggio post-industrializzato, dove
stanche fabbriche emergono tra i ritagli di un paesaggio
fertile e bucolico, autostrade e maestose reggie.
Ma può questo paesaggio post-industriale divenire il
sito adatto per un gesto collettivo, insirato ed
inspiratore per un futuro sociale, poetico, civico e
artistico?

Nel suo Manifesto della Pittura Industriale - Per un’arte
unitaria applicabile (1959), l’artista Situazionista
Giuseppe Pinot Gallizio scrisse: “Oggi l'uomo è parte
della macchina che ha creato e che gli è negata e ne è
da essa dominato. Bisogna invertire questo non senso o
non si avrà più creazione; bisogna dominare la
macchina ed obbligarla al gesto unico, inutile,
anti-economico, artistico, per creare una nuova società
anti-economica ma poetica, magica, artistica.”

Ma ci chiediamo, è vero che attraverso una nuova
industrializzazione dominata dall’uomo e dalla natura
potremo finalmente raggiungere una indipendeza
collettiva, una produzione della comunità e coesione
basata sulla poesia?

Per scoprirlo spenderemo due giorni, il 7 e l’8 Marzo,
per creare un “banchetto meccanizzato” per 100
invitati. Tre stazioni - 1.il pastificio, 2.la tinteggiatura e
3.la stamperia - diventeranno l’officina di sapori,
colorazioni ed estrusioni per orchestrare e produrre
un’opera d’arte commestibile, una sagra in corridoio.
