The Social Promotion Association (APS) MOVIMENTO VULNERARTE, founded on July 12, 2023, maintains that contemporary art has become irrelevant due to its distance from the truth of reality and is in need of radical change to reclaim its rights over life.
VulnerarTe aims to break down the barriers between work and non-work, between author and participant, and between exhibition space and everyday life, creating Communicating-Artistic-Organisms that enter into site-Coexistence with artists and participants, in the light of the places where the performances occur, holding within the continuous metamorphosis of the body-beyond-matter its own autonomy in time and space, and where the entire web of relationships that ensues can stimulate overcoming separations, reductions, specialisms, simplifications, and decontextualizations, in the pursuit of a new cognitive paradigm capable of revealing a shared lexicon between artists and participants.
The Movement pursues a transdisciplinary performative practice constituted by the contamination and integration of the expressive resources of painting, sculpture, dance, music, photography, cinema, theater, and publishing.
Movimento VulnerarTe APS is a non-profit entity accredited in the National Register of the Third Sector and the National Register for School-Work Alternation. It carries out ‘Pathways for Transversal Skills and Orientation’ projects with institutions, schools, associations, organizations, communities….
“The Association carries out the following activities of general interest with reference to art. 5, paragraph 1, of Legislative Decree no. 117/2017:
d) education, instruction and vocational training, pursuant to Law 28 March 2003, no. 53, and subsequent amendments, as well as cultural activities of social interest with an educational purpose;

i) organization and management of cultural, artistic or recreational activities of particular social interest, including activities, including publishing, for the promotion and dissemination of culture and the practice of volunteering and the activities of general interest referred to in this article;
In particular, the Association, with reference to the Barcelona Declaration of 1998, drawn up with the collaboration of twenty-two experts from different disciplines in the field of bioethics, at the initiative of the European Commission and under the coordination of the Centre for Ethics and Law in Copenhagen, whose conclusions mention vulnerability for the first time as an integral part of the regulatory principles of universal bioethics (autonomy, integrity, dignity, vulnerability), and also explicitly linked to the recognition of the constitutive finiteness of the human condition and the urgent call for the moral responsibility of the human community, aims to:
- explore the fragile condition of human reality through the practice of culture and art.
- work to rehabilitate the “contemporary cathedrals of vulnerability” which include former prisons-hospitals-slaughterhouses-barracks-churches-factories-schools…and other places in a state of severe abandonment.”
