Caligola is a worldwide network of artists founded in Northern Italy in the 1970´s, active in the underground of Stockholm (Sweden). In 2008, the artists' collective was joined by the two Swedish musicians Björn Dixgård and Gustaf Norén. ==History== The artists' collective, Caligola, was founded in the 1970s in Northern Italy. Her intention was to develop a worldwide collective of artists spanning diverse artistic genres to cooperatively create new art forms. The name ''Caligola'' is derived from the Roman emperor Caligula who is most famous for his lavish, excessive style of living and his madness that reached its height when he made his favourite horse a Senator. Hence the two stallions in the music project’s logo, referring both to Caligula and music's sexual energy. According to Gustaf Norén, the artists' collective Caligola is based on the idea of building a community;〔 the black capes worn by performers represent the equality of artists and the renunciation of their differences. Their goal is to overcome conventions and borders and to expand and connect art in all its forms.〔 In 2008 Björn Dixgård and Gustaf Norén, the two frontmen of the Swedish rock band Mando Diao joined the International network of artists. The Swedish hip-hop producers ''Masse and Salla Salazar (The Salazar Brothers TSB)'', who are also members of the collective, produced Mando Diao's fifth album, “Give Me Fire” (2009) and, together with Dixgård and Norén, they launched the "Caligola music project" which was active in 2011 and 2012. In 2013, the project was put to an end. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Caligola (music project)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
