‘Hill of Desires’ conceives contemporary art as a situated practice rooted in European peripheral and inland territories, providing a radical exercise in imagination that embraces rurality as a space of counter-narration, capable of generating political ecologies, affective infrastructures, and non-institutional forms of knowledge. It is therefore also a critical contribution to the redefinition of cultural geographies and curatorial paradigms, articulated in five sections: a visual atlas with key Italian works from 1960 to the present; three dust jackets specially designed by artists; nine essays; a collective bibliography; and photographic documentation of the multi-year Traffic Festival.
