This new exhibition is a special edition, with the aim to celebrate the achievement of the over ten years of history of the mini format exhibitions and the great network these events have created during the years.
In choosing the theme for "The Illusion of Reality", the organizer, Paula Trevisan beliefs that artists, powerfully interacting with the proposed subject, will respond letting flow their intimate imaginary into artworks where reality and illusion, visible and invisible, will originate strong vibrations in a significant and sustained dialogue.
