| Centotto is a 'galleria in salotto' -- or, 'per precisare,' a living-room gallery -- where discourse-driven group exhibits are conceived, conducted and critiqued according to a conceptual template called the 'simposio,' an indirect, language-based curatorial approach by which featured artists are asked to select and submit works according to varying textual and titular parameters. Specifically, their pieces must respond to the tripartite discursive framework formed by a given show's bivalent exhibition title and its required reading assignment. Within this triangle of potential discourse is where exhibited works reside, and artists-cum-interlocutors are required to provide brief statements to place their works semantically therein. Each simposio show is thus born of a text and, through the compilation of individual statements, engenders a new one.
