For the first time in Italy on 24th of February 2019 the SPAMM Philosophy event will take place in Napoli, Italy, at Mapils Gallery, from 7 pm to midnight, curated by Domenico Barra and Domenico Esposito.

The SPAMM project (Super Art Modern Museum) is an online museum founded in 2011 by the French artist Michael Borras aka Systaime, which presents a collection of digital artwork from over 400 artists selected by a team of international new media curators. After Chicago, Paris, London and New York, among other cities, the Neapolitan stage also will feature internationally renowned artists.

Systaime describes the initial idea and the evolution of the project as this: “SPAMM started with a revelation: the simple fact that galleries, museums and institutions in 2011 did not exhibit digital artists from the web. The reason was often because they did not know how to present them, or did not have a vision on this emerging art. So I said to myself, “If the institutions do not expose us, we will expose ourselves online – and physically if we can – and soon institutions and galleries have come to SPAMM to organize physical exhibitions”. SPAMM complements the existing exhibits. We are not at war against a system – we prefer to enrich it”.

During the SPAMM Philosophy event, the cocktail service & hempy bar is by Cannabistrò Napoli.

For the artistic direction by Maria Pia De Chiara, the event anticipates the exhibition The Beautiful Minds of the new media artist Domenico Barra (Napoli, 1982) from March 15, 2019.

Green Cube Gallery is proud to announce the exhibition made by Luca Leggero. Not Only Cigarettes is a new video art exhibition format created in order to be shown through the screen of a cigarette vending machine. The project will run both in real life (IRL), on a physical vending machine in Viareggio (Italy) and, URL, on the Green Cube Gallery exhibition space ➡️ https://greencube.gallery

Luca Leggero transformed the integrated screen of a common vending machine into a video art display. This machine, which is located on the sidewalk outside a bar, is visible by drivers and random people who pass by. It works 24 hours a day streaming video art on loop to an unexpecting audience.

Today Not Only Cigarettes is also opening on the Green Cube Gallery exhibition space. The users will be able to get insights in case they want to re-propose this exhibition format on their own local vending machine (there is a downloadable PDF form made available by the artist 😉). Furthermore, the gallery will host ongoing sneak previews of the videos currently playing on the vending machine in real time.

The machine will be operating on weekdays featuring works by: Alessandro Giannetti, Alessandro Nucci, Ana Mrovlje, Carlo Galli, Carlo Zanni, Charles Regoli, Cristina Gardumi, Daniela D’Amore, Davide Bondielli, Devid Ciampalini, Diego Caglioni, Domenico Dom Barra, Dominik Podsiadly, Fred Cosci, Giacomo Verde, Gian Luca Cupisti, Jennyfer Haddad, Luca Pozzi, Lucia Cristiani, Maicol Borghetti, Mara Oscar Cassiani, Marco Belfiore, Marco Cadioli, Marco Mendeni, Maria Chiara Gagliardi, Rachel Morellet, Rolenzo, Sandrine Deumier, Silvio Lorusso, Tatiana Villani, Valentina Lapolla, Vincent Moro.
