Musée National Dolomites Paris
Paris FRANCE – Bozen/Bolzano ITALY
The Südtiroler Künstlerbund (SKB) is the German name of the South Tyrolean Artists Association. The SKB organizes, develops and continuously realizes exhibitions, events, projects, performances in the region and all over the world.
SKB is based in Bozen/Bozen, the capital of the region known as Südtirol/Alto Adige, or South Tyrol, located in northern Italy on the border with Austria and in the heart of the Alps, in the mountain area called the Dolomites that form part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
The exhibition takes its name from the Dolomites massif, the symbol of the Italian region of South Tyrol with its pale limestone mountains. It is a temporary exhibition of seven South Tyrol positions; artists who are deeply rooted in the region in which they grew up and have found their own formal language in the international context. The particular nature of this region becomes apparent in the way of thinking and working that makes the artists unique. The term National, which is crossed out in the title, is the starting point for an identity that intensifies with the artists’ development and ultimately manifests itself in internationalism: where questions on the meaning of origin, social identities, language, self-presentations and fictions of the self have all emerged in the international confrontation with art.
