"Roberto Cuoghi. M I R A C O L A"

Описание: Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea has commissioned for the City of Turin an unprecedented public lighting installation designed by the Italian artist Roberto Cuoghi (Modena, 1973) for Luci d’Artista.

The Turin-based Luci d’Artista festival, established in 1998 and unique in the world, represents a veritable open-air contemporary art exhibition that every year from the end of October to the beginning of January illuminates the squares and streets of Turin from the center to the outskirts.

This new Luce d’Artista, donated by Roberto Cuoghi to the City of Turin, renews the vocation of the City to commission new public works of art and to expand its collection of Luci d’Artista. Created to coincide with the 500th anniversary of the death of Leonardo da Vinci (1519), the work required the active collaboration of all public and private premises in Piazza San Carlo in a new form of citizen participation. The work, realized by IREN, is co-produced by the City of Turin and Castello di Rivoli in collaboration with Fondazione per la Cultura Torino and Fondazione Contrada Onlus, with the main sponsorship of FPT Industrial. This work was made possible also with the generous support of Hauser & Wirth.
