This publication is a counterpart to the flip project-space based in Naples, Italy. ‘flip’ is a venue for contemporary discussions; a platform to expand on various interests in relation to current culture and artistic practice. The projects that take place there are the result of an international network and multidisciplinary collaborations. However, ‘flip’ is a project in itself, not specific to a single site but rather an evolving network of activity and locales. These continuous shifts in context invite new inputs and spontaneous occurrences that contribute to the multi-layered and transnational discourse that characterizes flip.
The print aspect of flip further enhances the collaborations that are undertaken between an open collective of artists, writers and critics.
Directing attention to the role of materiality in contemporary art, flip has approached four young, international artists whose practices already engaged with material as vessels for narrative. Recognizing that the material used in the production of art whether pedestrian and industrial or precious and rare are never neutral elements.
