The fourth edition of the festival, focuses on enhancing and regenerate the historic centre of Catanzaro, through the implementation of eight urban art interventions, an establishment of relational architecture and a number of events within the most suggestive places as well as locations of historic importance.
The abstract language has been the recurrent theme of the previous editions, and is now accompanied by expressionist and naïve painters as well as photographers and audio-visual artists who will work on several supports and materials. Wall, glass, textile, iron and concrete will be some of the mediums used for the purpose of raising the quality and durability of the interventions.
