Collicola onthewall presents
SCHERMI URBANI
Curated by Gianluca Marziani
SCHERMI URBANI is a Christmas event of public art, strongly wished for by the City administration which entrusted director of Palazzo Collicola Visual Arts Gianluca Marziani with its artistic curatorship.
The event involves some twenty sites in downtown Spoleto, including two former newsstands (Piazza Collicola, Piazza della Libertà), Palazzetto Ancaiani’s six displays (Piazza della Libertà) and some further fifteen dispays scattered across the city centre (Corso Mazzini, Via del Mercato, Via Salara Vecchia, via Minervio): the locations will be coated with great images of contemporary art, created by five artists who already collaborate with Palazzo Collicola Visual Arts.
“After last summer’s performance by street artist Ob Queberry in Piazza del Mercato – said Head of Culture and Tourism Camilla Laureti and Head of Town Planning Antonio Cappelletti – for the Christmas period we wanted the displays of closed shops to become the base for artistic interventions. It is a way to have the city centre live again and to try and envision a different future for this part of the city. We thank the shop owners who accepted to be featured, director Gianluca Marziani and the artists who joined in.”
The Officina d’arte e tessuti presents the third appointment with “I concerti del sabato in galleria”, titled Il quartetto nel Novecento.
Music by:
Paul Hindemith, Schulwerke op.44 n.3
Anton Webern, Langsamer satz
Bèla Bartok, Romanian Dances (for string quartet)
Featuring:
Gustavo Gasperini, Monica Pontini, violin
