Across the world, the social distancing measures and lockdowns that have been implemented to contain the spread of Covid-19 have upended daily routines to the point it is difficult to imagine that anyone is going about their daily lives as usual.

One of the benefits of living among rotating housemates, is that there is less temptation to spend the entire day with an unwashed face in sweats, because you are still seeing people. \u201cDressing up like you are supposed to leave your home helps you to feel \u2018normal\u2019,\u201d Monti says. \u201cWearing pyjamas for six weeks of quarantine will make you feel sick and like it\u2019s a long Sunday every day.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

While Monti and the four artists currently living at the Palazzo have settled into a routine since the Italian lockdown began nearly four weeks ago on 9 March, the first few days of the outbreak were particularly stressful. In February, the program started to received cancellations from artists who feared being fired from their 9-5 jobs upon their return for needing to go into quarantine and their intern, a British citizen, was asked by her university to return as uncertainties over Brexit raised questions about what would be covered in their health insurance policy. On the night of 8 March, as the region was restricting movement, two artists fled in the middle of the night, fearing that they would not be able to go back home.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere was some miscommunication from the media about the lockdown that was going to be put in place across Lombardy,\u201d Monti explains. \u201cA French and Israeli artist left in the middle of the night to go back to their home countries. We understand that panic may occur, but we would have handled the situation in a different way, if we had time to discuss with them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"images","gallery":[{"ID":84090,"id":84090,"title":"07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter","filename":"07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","filesize":908951,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/07_palazzomonti_ph_leehunter\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"07_palazzomonti_ph_leehunter","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2020-03-31 15:11:13","modified":"2020-03-31 15:11:13","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1500,"height":1000,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":85,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","medium-width":1500,"medium-height":1000,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","medium_large-width":1500,"medium_large-height":1000,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","large-width":1500,"large-height":1000,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","1536x1536-width":1500,"1536x1536-height":1000,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","2048x2048-width":1500,"2048x2048-height":1000,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/07_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1500,"wpvr_mobile-height":1000}},{"ID":84088,"id":84088,"title":"05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter","filename":"05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","filesize":757324,"url":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/de\/05_palazzomonti_ph_leehunter\/","alt":"","author":"1","description":"","caption":"","name":"05_palazzomonti_ph_leehunter","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":0,"date":"2020-03-31 15:10:34","modified":"2020-03-31 15:10:34","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":1500,"height":981,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","thumbnail-width":128,"thumbnail-height":84,"medium":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","medium-width":1500,"medium-height":981,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","medium_large-width":1500,"medium_large-height":981,"large":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","large-width":1500,"large-height":981,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","1536x1536-width":1500,"1536x1536-height":981,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","2048x2048-width":1500,"2048x2048-height":981,"trp-custom-language-flag":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","trp-custom-language-flag-width":18,"trp-custom-language-flag-height":12,"wpvr_mobile":"https:\/\/www.sleek-mag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/05_PALAZZOMONTI_ph_LeeHunter.jpg","wpvr_mobile-width":1500,"wpvr_mobile-height":981}}],"settings":{"fit_width":"6","caption":"Photos: Lee Hunter"}},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_area","text_area":"

Still, after the initial wave of worry and fear over what would happen next, the residency swung into action and group shows were moved from spring to summer and early autumn, and there was time to plan new projects that were compatible with social distancing measures. Rethinking the idea of an exhibition on walls, Monti started the <\/span>Banners <\/span><\/i>project, which invites both Italian and international artists to create flags that will be displayed on the fa\u00e7ade of Palazzo Monti\u2014a project that can be seen from a safe social distance. Another project <\/span>Andr\u00e0 Tutto Bene<\/span><\/i> (‘It\u2019s going to be alright’), collects drawings from children all over Italy to display in the palazzo\u2019s exhibition rooms, which were frescoed in 1750.<\/span><\/p>\n

On a personal level, Monti finds stability in engaging with virtual projects as a way to keep connected. He contributes to the <\/span>Milano Art Guide<\/span><\/a> colouring book project, which makes colorable versions of pieces by artists like <\/span>Maurizio Cattelan<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Arnaldo Pomodoror<\/span><\/a>, alongside giving virtual tours of the residency program and participating in live stream panels.\u00a0 But not everything has to be art-related.
