Residency as an experience and way of knowledge: lugar a dudas (place for doubts)

What might be the role of art and artists in an evolving geography such as that of recent years? To what extent can the residency experience have an influence on artistic research? Working Geographies is a book that documents the first four editions of the Resò international residency program that began in 2010. Through the texts by the authors and the projects of the twenty artists involved in the program thus far, the publication approaches questions that start from art to approach spheres like economics, the environment, politics, history, communication and the social sciences, exploring uncharted artistic routes that trigger dialogue between a region of Northern Italy—Piedmont—and Egypt, Brazil, India and Colombia. Working Geographies offers a set of reflections around the concepts of boundaries, identity and culture, in a liquid global scenario subject to continuous interrelations and rifts.
