STEPS. CASTELLO SVEVO

Stage of the project Puglia – Contemporary Art circuit, the exhibition is gathered by the moat of the Swabian castle of Bari, occupied by installations that the viewer can observe “from above.” This dimension allows to create a daily relationship between the viewer and the work, that gives birth to an immediate understanding and elaboration. The art fits directly into the territory dominated by the ancient architecture to become connotation of continuity between past and present, old and new.
“The originality of from above (down into the moat) – says the curator Achille Bonito Oliva – is physically in indicating a further distance, very particular for the contemplation of contemporary art, open to all travelers in the city of Bari and not prohibited to minors.
