Memory for dates, dates for memory

Discovering a collection of works of art that consciously represent a calendar day, revealing it in the image with visible or implied clues; indicating it in the title as a structural element of the work; playing – sometimes – with real time. The text presents some examples of this gallery: paintings, drawings, collages, installations, performances. And then it borders on literature, analyzing the links between perception of time, artistic representation and memory, and investigating how the time of narrative or figurative fiction, organized on the calendar scheme, can be the basis for a daily mnemonics.
