20/10/2022 In Alghero, the “Laying of the foundation stone of the Third Paradise” in the Abbado-Legambiente grounds The construction of a new installation of Michelangelo Pistoletto's trinamic symbol began on Wednesday 19 October, with the symbolic laying of the first stone, in an area redeveloped by Claudio Abbado currently entrusted to Legambiente, and within the framework of the AsviS (Italian Alliance for a Sustainable Development) Festival for Sustainable Development 2022. The process of creating the Third Paradise sees the active involvement of 377 Sardinian municipalities: each town will donate a block of typical local stone (discarded or salvaged) that will bring together – both physically and symbolically – the entire regional community with the aim of protecting, preserving and enhancing its territory. “It is an honour for us and for Sardinia,” said the Abbado family, 'that the first work on the ground represents the thought of the artist. With the dream of combining art and nature, we are working on the creation of two artistic and scientific committees'. IL 20/10/2022 Leggi di più
