When art meets sustainable fashion: the third edition of “Circulart” has been presented The protagonists of this year’s edition are two international artists and two international fashion designers, selected through an open call launched by Cittadellarte: Augustina Bottoni, Lucia Chain, Huge Sillytoe and Rebecca Sforzani, young talents called upon to create a work with fabrics produced by partner companies, focusing on dialogue and on the enhancement of the textile industry production chain. “CirculART is a research and innovation format with which we have now been experimenting for three years,” said Paolo Naldini, director of Cittadellarte - Fondazione Pistoletto, “we start by identifying the challenges that companies deem as most urgent, and then explore possible lines of development with artists and experts from different sectors”.
