Patented documents a performance Cóngelo, the collaborative duo of Coco Gordon and Angelo Ricciardi, as they created one of fifteen multicultural dinners produced in fifteen days at Montescaglioso’s 1000 AD Abazia for Oreste in September, 2000. The performance involved bread-related pieces by Cóngelo and eight invited artists: Alison Knowles, Ernesto Pinto, Rita Degli Esposti, Sheila Sporer, Jasa ban, Fiormario Cilvini, Antonella Catelli, Ruggero Maggi. The work addressed the danger of grain - the most important and available food (bread) - becoming a patented object, and as such, becoming the exclusive property of a limited numbers of people. Patented features a mixture of photographs and texts regarding the performance.
