Beyond Borders. Transnational Italy Exhibition of the TML Project. Istituto Italiano di Cultura Tunisi Opening 7 December till 21 February 2018
The exhibition BEYOND BORDERS - Transnational Italy is one of the principal research outputs of the AHRC project TML – Transnationalizing Modern Languages. Mobility, Identity and Translation in Modern Italian Cultures.
Beyond Borders. Transnational Italy displays both the processes and the results of the research in which TML has been engaged over the last three years, across different countries. The exhibition demonstrates how what we refer to as Italian language and Italian culture exceed geographical/territorial confines and operate through a constant process of rewriting and reworking of familiar ideas of tradition, nation and narration.
Beyond Borders also presents Italy is Out a photographic project by Mario Badagliacca, who has worked as artist in residence for the project, travelling to London, New York, Addis Ababa and Buenos Aires. Within the exhibition there are also other compositions that demonstrate the interest of TML for those artistic languages that encourage us to think of cultural identities in terms of the transnational.
TML researchers:
Charles Burdett, Jennifer Burns, Jacopo Colombini, Derek Duncan, Margaret Hills de Zàrate, Luisa Pèrcopo, Carlo Pirozzi, Loredana Polezzi, Marco Santello, Barbara Spadaro, Georgia Wall, Naomi Wells.

'The Game' Exhibition at the Fundação Calouste Gulbenkian Lisboa, Portugal 2017
17 13 - 20 November 2017
Organized by 'ACEP – Association for the Cooperation of the People' this exhibition is part of an on-going multimedia project documenting experiences of violation of human rights along the East European routes. The overall work is divided into chapters, each showing a specific aspect of migrants’ daily life. This central photographic core comprises 16 photographs that I took during several trips in the region. The goal is to explore life in refugee and transit centers, squats, and in the 'jungle' (the woods), by showing the daily practices used by migrants in order to survive extreme physical and psychological conditions.
‘The Game’ is the phrase used by migrants to refer to the dangerous trip across the Balkan Route. Independently of their origins and native tongues, all migrants use this English expression. They all attempt to cross the Balkan borders, walking or hidden in trains and trucks, up to fifteen or twenty times in a year, taking risky, multiple chances, like in a game. More often than not, the police takes them back to their departure point, often after having physically and psychologically abused them. The guards send dogs to rip them apart, push them to walk barefoot in the snow, beat them, destroy their mobile phones, and seize their money and the few items they carry. Abuses are widely documented by the international NGOs that every day give medical support to migrants.

Beyond Borders. Transnational Italy Exhibition of the TML Project.
British School at Rome, 26 Ottobre 2016
Beyond Borders. Transnational Italy è una mostra itinerante, che parte dalla British School at Rome, per poi viaggiare prima a Londra presso l’Italian Cultural Institute all’inizio di dicembre, e poi nel corso del 2017 in diverse altre location nel mondo, ripercorrendo alcuni degli itinerari geografici dei ricercatori TML (Addis Abeba, New York, Buenos Aires, Melbourne, Torino). L'esposizione mostra il modo in cui la cultura e la lingua italiana eccedono i confini geografici o territoriali, e operano attraverso una costante riscrittura e reinvenzione delle tradizioni o delle narrazioni stereotipate. I materiali di ricerca provenienti da differenti parti del mondo, nella loro pluralità di linguaggi (fotografie, interviste, documenti) prendono vita, si animano attraverso le installazioni, lasciando emergere le storie delle quali sono portatori (le storie delle persone incontrate dai ricercatori, e le storie dei ricercatori stessi) e consentendo un’esperienza di fruizione intensa e partecipata.
Beyond Borders. Transnational Italy presenta il lavoro fotografico che Mario Badagliacca ha realizzato ad hoc per il progetto, come artista in residenza TML, viaggiando tra Londra, New York e Buenos Aires.
Mostra a cura di Viviana Gravano e Giulia Grechi/Routes Agency.
