“Mezz’ora dopo la chiusura” returns on Friday 19 February 2016 at 18.00 with a meeting on Spoleto Contemporanea, the exhibition that showcases local talents and ideas.
The theme of the meeting in Palazzo Collicola will be Maps and Traces – visual itineraries inside and outside the Palace.
The maps show routes in unexplored territories. Each map is a travelogue overlapping other trips, highlighting departures, arrivals and possible losses.
The map is the paper that you unfold when you stop; the question “where am I” coincides with the break and the resumption. Each time such question is spoken, you’re asking yourself about the contemporary.
The exhibition “Spoleto Contemporanea” is PALAZZO COLLICOLA ARTI VISIVE taking stock of the situation on contemporary Spoleto, disclosing a city sometimes hidden, yet rich in talents and ideas, of people that make projects and travel.
Curated by Gianluca Marziani, Aurora Roscini Vitali and Davide Silvioli, the exhibition has been extended till 22 May.
The evening continues at the Caffè Collicola with a tasting of typical products. The event is in collaboration with Con Spoleto – Consorzio Albergatori di Spoleto.
Partecipation fee: Free
Tasting € 5,00
