NOW (New Operation Wave) was a network founded at the end of 2014, a platform including different public and private institutions, Italian and foreign ones, to connect and create together cultural and artistic initiatives and activities.
The network was coordinated by Zerynthia, Roma and partnered with: Accademia Belle Arti di Roma; Accademia di Brera, Milano; Fondazione Antonio Ratti, Como; Wiels, Bruxelles and De Appel, Amsterdam.
The main objective of NOW was related to the field of education, research, and experimentation. Common operations included the organization of study days among the network's partners and workshops with students of the curatorial courses and young artists.
The first meeting took place on April 9th and 10th at Fondazione Antonio Ratti in Como and was dedicated to the thematic of "Publics."
