See you, Tomorrow unfolds a curatorial narrative in which Art is used as an activism tool to address major issues highlighted by the pandemic, such as the environmental crisis, domestic abuse and consumerism. Based on different media, the selected artworks are powerful responses to social, political and economical problems, advocating on the possibility - and urgency - of a better tomorrow, as well as inviting visitors to individually take action in disclosing and preventing the exposed matters.
 
Camera Oscura gathers artists that capture how themselves or others were coping with isolation and restrictions through the lens of a camera. The focus on photography does not imply a flat, monocorde tone though. On the contrary, it is a revealing set of plural approaches, interests, points of views and interpretations. The quick register allowed by the camera is trespassed by multiple subjectivities that overcome any attempt of mimetic gestures and the fallacy of neutrality.  
 
The two chapters close the group of 5 international collective exhibitions, gathering 63 creatives around different strategies to reinvent oneself and keep the creative flow running despite the obstacles imposed by times of exception. 
 
Alongside with THE CREATIVE ROOM shows, the courtyard of Palazzo Donà Brusa will host Federica Zianni’s Argo, selected by a.topos Venice for the special prize of the open call “We Art Open” organized by No Title Gallery.
