Oddo “The ENI Village in the Dolomites is being given a new lease of life while preserving important traces of Enrico Mattei and Edoardo Gellner’s original project – it is moving from a kind of social enterprise to becoming an asset for all. In addition to real-estate  development, the current owners are also investing in contemporary art,

April the 16th: DC in H-Farm, Dolomiti Digital Camp in Progettoborca

There was a lot of  excitement today (April the 16th), as well as hundreds of young people and families, in H-Farm‘s super-lab, where the program and activities for the 2016 Digital Summer Camp were presented.
To sum up, a lot of things will happen in those ten weeks of summer labs.

And a meaningful development involves Dolomiti Contemporanee directly.
For the first time, H-FARM steps out of its headquarters, and takes some of its summer H-Campus labs in an exteral site in Roncade: which one?
The former Eni Village of Borca di Cadore, where we’ve been working for two years, partnered with Minoter, for the implementation of the cultural platform Progettoborca, with experimental and innovative methods, and an open and operative vision in the matter of what it measn to make culture.

There’s contemporary art, in Borca, there was since the very start, as well as our heart-engine of sensitive intelligence.
But there’s much more, too. Here, functions get tangled, people meet and interact, like ideas and the shapes of the active doing.

And thus, this coming August, the people of Farm will climb up to the mountains, to dive in this exceptional nature, and to realize part of their summer training inside it, sharing it with us: the first DOLOMITI DIGITAL CAMP takes shape; in the coming weeks, we wil provide all the updates on the labs, as well as activities and calendars.

We would like to thank Riccardo Donadon and Giulia Franchin, whose capacity for a broader vision is well known to us, as well as their ability of instantly understanding our attitude, immediately launching a projectual path that is going to be developed in the coming months.
It will be spectacular to work together with all the team of Farm in Borca, among the woods and the peaks, inside the exceptional spaces of the Colonia (Eng.: summer camp building) and the Village, imagined and built by Enrico Mattei and Edoardo Gellner, these two new men, able to be concrete visionaries, as innovators from each era always are.
Innovators, who are designers, and builders, necessary pioneers of the contemporary landscapes. Mobile landscapes, too, and dynamic: living landscapes, caught in action.
