The meeting with Miltos Manetas is based on his recent project “Medio Sud” (“Middle South”), in which he assumes an ideal geographic area defined as an hybrid in relation to the extended concepts of North and South of the world. For Manetas Rome is the capital of this South and, at the same time, the boundary of that ideal area.
