Di + onlus is a non-profit cultural association involved in promoting contemporary art and photo-journalism. The association evaluates the connection of these languages applied to the social fabric, both at a local and international level.
Di + uses methodologies and languages that are specific to contemporary art and photo-journalism through a consolidated practice of:
investigation and research
analysis and study of the problem
direct view
reportage
direct testimonies
listening
sensitivity and discretion of the arguments treated
co-operation both in the elaboration as well as the realization of the projects
intelligibility of messages
relations between different fields of knowledge
evaluation of cultural differences
The aims of the association are:
- to get out of the self-referential circle in which contemporary art is so often imprisoned
- to produce photo-journalism with a timing suited to the comprehension of the social reality that it is related to
- to build temporary cultural networks between different fields of knowledge
- to establish a co-operation with organizations working on projects of humanitarian ends and social commitment
- to promote and produce public art projects
- to produce cultural projects that foresee a permanence in particularly problematic places, nations, and environments
- to organize exhibitions and cultural events
- to produce publishing projects
Di + guarantees the experience and professionalism of its members, respect for the individual, transparency of intent, co-operation, clarity and simplicity of communication, always and above all with respect for the cultures that Di + enters into contact with.
