Book excerpt: "Ten exponents of contemporary art are the protagonists of the exhibition 'Senzamargine. Passages in Italian Art at the Turn of the Millennium,' an original panorama of the country's artistic geography between the twentieth and twenty-first century, and one that sets out to reflect its multiplicity and differences. Through the essays of an international group of critics and scholars, this volume offers an exhaustive introduction to the work of the ten artists, offering new interpretations and points for reflection on which to base a rewriting of the canon of the art of the last few decades. Against the background of the need for a new account of the Italian experience, one that also looks beyond the nation's borders and is able to draw attention to the coexistence within it of individual traditions, lines, and vectors that cannot be traced back to a common root or 'identity.' A pluralistic trait that constitutes not just one of the most significant aspects of Italian artistic production but also the vital contribution that it is able to make to the deterritorialized scenario of contemporary culture, considered in all its hyperbolic global simultaneity"--Page 4 of cover.
