The were also some works made by Mari Jana Pervan and Veronica Menni.
As you know the theme of the artistic event was the law about privatization of the water service supplies by the italian government. In many regions of Italy the local authorities have refused the privatization process and affirmed the same as the UE Parliament and modified their statutes to protect water as a good common.

So that day there were also a meeting with some personalities from the local government city of Corsico, provincia of Milan and journalists to explain how the new national law works and how to contrast it: really an interesting event for all the people living in the area, beside all the artworks in the exposition.

I'm very late with all the reports of the exhibitions here announced, but finally here is the initiative of mail art on the water as a common good, which took place last June 2, 2010. As already written in the first article lot of artists have posted their work and as you can see from the photos were placed in air ... literally hanging. There was also my photographic composition "Water is life", as you can see below, among others. In addition to suits the works were also exhibited works come Mirko Bozzato, Gretel Scarian Feher, Loredana, and installations by Mari Pervan Jana and Veronica Menni.
As you know the theme of the art event was the recent law of the Italian government about the privatization of public water supply service. In many Italian regions local authorities have refused privatization and said the principle established by the European Parliament of water as a common good for humanity.
So that day there was also a meeting with local dignitaries of the city and the Province of Corsico di Milano, oltre ad alcuni giornalisti per esporre e spiegare gli aspetti della legge ed i modi per contrastarla: davvero un interessante evento per la gente del luogo, oltre alla bellezza delle opere esposte.
