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 20-year-old spring bike ride by MTB Club Spoleto and CT Spoleto Bike returns.
Wednesday 25 April, the ride will cover the first part of the Spoleto – Norcia railroad, till Caprareccia, where refreshments will be offered to the participants.
Meeting will be at 8.00 at the beginning of the former railroad, by the former hotel Il Barbarossa. Start is scheduled for 9.30. On the occasion, it will be possible to register for the SpoletoNorcia in MTB of 1-2 Septmeber 2018.
The bike ride is 6,5 km.
