If the forms of relation and the realization of memberships are in contemporariness more and more mitigated by the spatial distance and by technological media, the work of Mario Rizzi proposes and experiments forms of experience linked to the direct relation, the emotional exchange and to the work of collecting individual life as forms of social therapy. Invited to the most prestigious international exhibitions, Mario Rizzi made his artistic experience an itinerant journey which searches, reports and describes the places where social marginality and interpersonal conflict thicken and become pointers and seismographs of shifts and slits in the relationships between individual and society.
For Integration and Conflict Mario Rizzi will held one workshop in Prato and also he will introduce his last works Hanadi and Tali (2007) both made during his stay in Palestine. The period of his stay in Palestine brought the artist inside the refugee camp of Jenin where he was witness, partaker and author with his works of radical and at the same time dramatic life experiences.
