										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago is pleased to present the exhibition <strong><em>Poetry is a Place </em></strong>curated by Italian artist and illustrator Alessandro Ferraro. The exhibition will present a selection of artworks produced by a group of students of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, who participated in a workshop in October 2023 led by Ferraro, in collaboration with artist and professor Cecilia Beaven.</p>
<p>Working with illustration for almost thirty years, for a long time Ferraro has been interested in the relationship between <strong>written words and images</strong>, particularly in the context of illustration, where the image retains a functional purpose in relation to writing. From the point of view of the artist, words can also represent inspiration, a starting point where images originate and find their freedom, separating from the text to become something new.</p>
<p><em>Poetry is a Place</em> brings together two mediums that represent complementary forms of communication: <strong>poetry and postcards</strong>. Both artistic forms allow us to create images that can potentially connect people and reduce distance. A distance that is not so much physical, as we live in a digital word, but conceptual, cultural and personal. The art created for this project has the potential to represent identities that come into contact, and create new connections and dialogues.</p>
