The Symposium foregrounds the movement of Exchange and interaction between art and medium.
Point of departure is the observation that the transference, in all forms of artistic communication, plays a decisive role of construction, transformation and structural resolution. Not always, in fact, the exchange between the arts is a linear process, on the contrary: through a spectrum of direct influences, thematic, connected structures, the relationship between the works of art creates frequently a dynamic plot analogies, correspondences and waste.
