ANOTHER GAZE

There is a shared constant between the two artists emerging from New York’s most progressive scene who define themselves as “creators of the still unknown, of the other side, of the forgotten, and of all that must be remembered.” A truly formidable task in a world where civil rights and freedom seem to be perpetually on trial. Gregory de la Haba explores the world of graffiti on the walls of the Big Apple, reflecting the moods and emotions of new generations and reinterpreting them through whirling colors that give strength to human tensions. Laura Mega delves into the persistent challenges of the female condition, seeking to expose explicit and implicit violence against women. Artistic freedom, above all, must prevail, emerge, and contribute to the social development of humanity.

The Others is Italy’s leading fair dedicated to emerging national and international art, created to promote new creative energies through a unique exhibition system aimed at rediscovering and reactivating abandoned urban spaces in the city of Turin. It combines theory and pragmatic action, market and cultural innovation—a pioneering model that abandons the rigid frameworks of traditional fairs to foster a more direct and immediate dialogue between artistic proposals and the diverse audiences following the Italian and international art scenes.
