BIANCOSHOCK: ONTHEGROUND - MACCASTORNA, 2018
Biancoshock visited Maccastorna (with its 73 inhabitants is the 11° smallest village in Italy) and he reproduced the iconic Subway M1 using some hay bales found in an agricultural field. The intervention ironically emphasized the difference between the limitations typical of the country life and the stress of living in a wide metropolis.

HARMEN DE HOOP: LUCK / NO LUCK - BEILEN, 2018
A gold treasure was found in the small village of Beilen (Netherlands), consisting of 22 golden coins and 6 golden bracelets (Roman Empire, 4th Century). Harmen de Hoop tried his luck using a metal detector. Unfortunately his find was less impressive...

BIANCOSHOCK: GOOD LACK - SOFIA, 2018
Action at the International Airport of Sofia, capital of the most needy country in Europe. Gambling today represents 3% of GDP and gambling addiction mainly afflicts the poorest segment of the population such as the unemployed, illiterates and old people.
The artist instead of donating money to the Red Cross offers a 'Scratch and Win' ticket.
The simple gesture mirrors the behavior of the state: the Bulgarian Government has applied a tax break for gambling companies and it invites people to 'Try your luck' to overcome the poverty instead of investing funds in social security, health and education.

 HARMEN DE HOOP GAVE BIANCOSHOCK AN ASSIGNMENT: DO SOMETHING WITH SHEETS OF PAPER .
​


BIANCOSHOCK: DAILY BOMBINGS - LODI, 2018
The failed factory, closed in 2006, looks like a place that has just been bombed by an air-raid: the roof is collapsed and only rubble and debris remain on the ground. Using some of the hundreds and hundreds of documents (as invoices, technical sheets, manuals) found in the factory, the artist reproduced a funeral wreath to celebrate a moment of mourning for a place that has been bombed by this deep, social and silent crisis.
