two calls is online
On the 12th of June, the International Artistic Contest that will involve the Vajont area, location of the Vajont tragedy of 1963, has been launched. The Contest undertakes the task of finding, from now to the end of October, two artworks of public art, that will be realized on two emblematic places that to this day represent Tragedy and death: the Vajont Dam and the southern façade of the former elementary school of Casso, now Nuovo Spazio di Casso.
The Contest has a very qualified Jury, and is thus introduced in the international artistic context, through the collaboration between different authorities and Institutions. Contemporary Art gains, therefore, an important cultural role and responsibility, through this great conceptual “construction site”.
The Contest wants to create a projective and re-innovative reflection for the critical area of the Vajont and for its identity, refusing to eternally intend this territory as the “land of death”.
The Contest is developed in a double open call:
a call for a line is the Contest for the Vajont Dam.
a call for a wall is the Contest for the southern façade of the former elementary school of Casso. On the website www.twocalls.net , together with a general project, the Announcement and all the info about how to participate are available.
