Synopsis

The Dark Side is a project that wants to solicit the public on the ‘dark side’ that is in each of us, which manifests itself in ancestral fears such as the fear of the dark - to which this first volume is dedicated -, the fear of loneliness, the fear of time. These fears require a pause, a reflection: they destabilize, but at the same time ignite new possibilities, new thoughts, new perspectives. The volume Who’s Afraid of the Dark? investigates the theme of physical and metaphorical darkness, and consequently the relationship with its opposite, light. The reflection involves thirteen of the most important international artists such as Gregor Schneider, Robert Longo, Hermann Nitsch, Tony Oursler, Christian Boltanski, James Lee Byars up to the new protagonists of the contemporary art scene such as Monster Chetwind, Sheela Gowda, Shiota Chiharu and, among Italian artists, Gino De Dominicis, Gianni Dessì, Flavio Favelli, Monica Bonvicini. The artistic perspective is counterpointed with the interventions by the theologian Gianfranco Ravasi, the physicist-theorist Mario Rasetti, the psychiatrist Eugenio Borgna and the philosopher Federico Vercellone, who offer a polyphonic look of great intellectual interest on this theme .
