Exibart revives its book column with Ilaria Maria Sala's 'Flower Power'
The Italian contemporary art magazine brings back its 'A Book a Day' feature, this time spotlighting an essay by Ilaria Maria Sala.
Exibart, the Italian outlet covering contemporary art news, has relaunched its recurring column 'Un libro al giorno' (A Book a Day), conceived as a regular reading-recommendation feature for its audience. Rather than sticking to artist monographs or exhibition catalogues, the column casts a wide net, touching on criticism, philosophy, current affairs and culture broadly defined. It draws on suggestions from the outlet's own writers, who are invited to name titles they would happily pack for a trip. For this early-August installment, the pick is 'Flower Power' by Ilaria Maria Sala. An Italian journalist and essayist long based in Hong Kong, Sala is known for her writing on Asia, particularly China and Hong Kong, published across several international outlets. Her inclusion reflects Exibart's stated ambition to widen the scope of its literary picks beyond strictly art-related subjects, embracing voices that examine contemporary society from varied angles. Conceived as a light, recurring format, the column is expected to keep highlighting a mix of new releases and classics in coming installments, curated directly by the editorial team rather than by an outside literary critic.
