The large wall panel “Saudade: the face of Senna”, created by the artist Stefano Pierotti, will be mounted on the wall of the Acer building, in via Cenni 10, on Friday 26 April e it will be inaugurated with a special ceremony on Saturday 27 April, at 4.30 pm. At the inauguration, among others, the mayor Marco Panieri, the artist Stefano Pierotti, Fabiola Salucci, member of the Acer Board of Directors, Marcella Pradella, director of IF, who coordinated the installation intervention and representatives of the the company Tecnopose Srl, which installs the work free of charge.
The sculptor Stefano Pierotti donated the wall panel to the City of Imola, expressing the desire “that the work be installed in a popular context, thus respecting the same values expressed by Senna”. Furthermore, in that area there are already murals on the facades of the adjacent buildings. The large wall panel (3.33 meters base and 4.20 meters high, with a thickness of approximately 4 cm), was specially created by Pierotti on the occasion of the 30th anniversary of Senna’s death, as a link of memory that starting from that dramatic day, winds up to the creation of the monument “to Ayrton Senna”, inaugurated on 26 April 1997, and placed in the Park of Mineral Waters to be updated with today’s artistic intervention.
