From March 22 through July 21, 2013, kicking off Italy's "Year of Italian Culture in the United States" (Anno Della Cultura Italiana Negli Stati Uniti), the Museo Italo Americano will present "Contemporaneity: Signs of Modern Times" an exhibit by the Sedna group. Sedna is made up of five Italian artists — Paride Bianco, Silvia Cossich Goodman, Milena Pedrollo, Maurizio Piccirillo and Ivano Zanetti — linked together by the common language of art. Though the styles and media used by these experienced artists differ, they all share the challenge of transferring the reality of nature into their respective work. Gruppo Sedna explores the meaning of art in contemporary society and questions the art making process in general. Their name is derived from one of science's most recent and significant discoveries, the planet Sedna.
