The contest, curated by Nadia Di Mastropietro and part of the "Together We Are Art" project created by Città Metropolitana di Roma Capitale and ATCL and supported by the Ministry of Culture and the Lazio Region , will therefore see the finalist artists perform in a fusion of music, shows and live performances of theatre, dance and contemporary circus, exhibitions of painting and live painting, photography, projections, installations, readings, street-art, which will mix together to create Lo Spettacolo Totale, the beating heart of MArteLive, sharing the stage together with big artists guests of the event.
On the ground floor of the Qube, the young talents under 35 finalists of the Music/Dance/Creative Crafts/Fashion/Videoart sections will alternate over these two days , while outside there will be live performances by the finalists of the Street Art section ; on the first floor, however, the new finalist talents of the Theater/Literature/Cinema/Photography/Sculpture/Graphic Illustration/Video clip/DJ Producer sections will perform , while on the top floor, alongside the big music guests, there will be a dedicated room entirely to live painting , the flagship of the MArteLive format, in a sort of large artist's studio in continuous creation.
Each artistic section of the MArteLive contest has a quality jury , made up of leading experts in the specific sector, who will examine the works of the young artists by expressing a vote which will be added to the online votes of the popular jury. The winners of each section will then participate in the BiennaleMArteLive 2024.
