Borders and Battles. Pictorial oriental carpets. A Vision of power
In the centenary of the Great War, a series of events around the so-called war rugs created in Afghanistan
The initiatives of «Borders and Battles. Pictorial oriental carpets. A Vision of power» - produced by Fondazione Sergio Poggianella with Fondazione Museo Civico di Rovereto and Dipartimento di Lettere e Filosofia dell’Università di Trento - is part of a complex and articulated route that if on the one hand opens with an editorial-exhibition proposal all dedicated to War rugs, on the other hand, distancing itself from the ephemeral that ends by marking all temporary exhibitions, means to promote a virtuous circle of knowledge and educational and teaching proposals. War rugs, created in a “war context”, can indicate a route to offer strength and consequence to a “culture of peace”, promoting reflection on the painful episodes that daily infect the world and its people and that become central topics in territorial conflict.
