AUGE! is a curatorial/artistic initiative formed by Clau Tola and Davide Parolin and active in Venice (IT) between 2020 and 2022. It is currently on a hiatus.

Amidst the aftermath of the Covid-19 pandemic, AUGE! launched and curated Uscire col maltempo, a collective project gathering 22 young, local artists to produce site-specific works in an abandoned building in the outskirts of Venice over the course of nine months, ending with a 3-month long exhibition over the summer 2021.

Uscire col maltempo was an invitation to come together, to stay alive, to take risks, to take care, to re-inhabit, to re-invent - (in) an abandoned space and a troubled time.





Uscire col maltempo featured works by:

Michela Del Longo, Giulio Polloniato, Linda Zennaro, Marco Sgarbossa, Silvia Travaglini, Francesco Fazzi, Vito Ancona, Pierpaolo Petruzzelli, Martina Gambitta, Angelo Licciardello, Romane Marie Chantal Bourgeois, Andrea Croce, Valentina Goretti, Davidd D'Addario, Giuseppe di Liberto, Giuseppe Lo Cascio, Alice Mestriner, Ahad Moslemi, Marina Marques, Tommaso Pandolfi, Pier Zanard, Juri Bizzotto.
