The Models Of Contemporary Works Of Art Conveyed By The Dialectic Between Symbolic-Artistic Forms

The paper investigates the dialectical relationship between symbolic-artistic forms and society. The study aims to reconstruct the narrative models of the imaginaries conveyed by the works of art through the hermeneutic and sociological analysis of the interpretations of the users, compared to the narratives of the stakeholders of the artistic universe (Artistic Directors, Critics and Art Historians, Curators, Art Dealers, Artists). The research aims to answer the questions: How contemporary art interprets complex social themes and If it can be considered a form of "storytelling" of the present about themes of fear’s perception, insecurity, uncertainty and identity fragmentation. The survey work presents a multidisciplinary scientific reconstruction and an empirical research. The case study is the Venice Biennal of Art 2019, where have been selected a corpus of contemporary works of art on show.
