This is the sixth and final edition of work from the Italian Studio Program at P.S.1/MoMA, the most prestigious scholarship for young Italian artists. Chosen by a panel of respected Italian art critics, 44 artists have been able to live and work in New York under its auspices, launching a number of successful careers.

"Ten exponents of contemporary art are the protagonists of the exhibition 'Senzamargine. Passages in Italian Art at the Turn of the Millennium,' an original panorama of the country's artistic geography between the twentieth and twenty-first century, and one that sets out to reflect its multiplicity and differences. Through the essays of an international group of critics and scholars, this volume offers an exhaustive introduction to the work of the ten artists, offering new interpretations and points for reflection on which to base a rewriting of the canon of the art of the last few decades. Against the background of the need for a new account of the Italian experience, one that also looks beyond the nation's borders and is able to draw attention to the coexistence within it of individual traditions, lines, and vectors that cannot be traced back to a common root or 'identity.' A pluralistic trait that constitutes not just one of the most significant aspects of Italian artistic production but also the vital contribution that it is able to make to the deterritorialized scenario of contemporary culture, considered in all its hyperbolic global simultaneity"--Page 4 of cover.

A catalogue of the first edition of the triennial exhibition of contemporary art in Turin, organised in collaboration with the Castello di Rivoli Museum of Contemporary Art, Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art, and the Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Foundation.

This book is a complete reworking and update of Marga Cottino-Jones' popular A Student's Guide to Italian Film (1983, 1993) . This guide retains earlier editions' interest in renowned films and directors but is also attentive to the popular films which achieved box office success among the public.

In terms of migration, Italy is often thought of as a source country - a place from which people came rather than one to which people go. However, in the past few decades, Italy has indeed become a destination for many people from poor or war-torn countries seeking a better life in a stable environment. Graziella Parati's Migration Italy examines immigration to Italy in the past twenty years, and explores the processes of cultural hybridization that have occurred. Working from a cultural studies viewpoint, Parati constructs a theoretical framework for discussing Italy as a country of immigration. She gives special attention to immigrant literature, positing that it functions as an act of resistance, a means to talk back to the laws that regulate the lives of migrants. Parati also examines Italian cinema, demonstrating how native and non-native filmmakers alike create parallels between old and new migrations, complicating the definitions of sameness and difference. These definitions and the complexities inherent in the different cultural, legal, and political positions of Italy's people are at the heart of Migration Italy, a unique work of immense importance for understanding society in both modern-day Italy and, indeed, the entire European continent.
