As part of the center-right electoral campaign for the local elections, theregional councilor for culture Francesca Carusowho visited the city and Art Week, before stopping at the candidate’s electoral headquarters Alessandro Portesani.
It was a pleasure to welcome councilor Caruso, who was able to see some stages of Art Week” underlined the candidate from Fratelli d’Italia, Francesca Gazzina. “There is a project that we care about a lot, namely that of opening a 20th century museum in the city. A very flourishing century for our city, which deserves to be valorised. And for this reason we want to ask the department for help, to support this initiative.”
The regional councilor was satisfied and, after expressing approval for the important recognition obtained yesterday by the Monteverdi Festival, put the spotlight on the Cremonese cultural sector, “a supply chain in which to invest”, even if, he underlined, “the structures are lacking” . For the councilor, “culture is an antidote against social and youth hardship. Looking at these broken windows (those of the Portesani electoral headquarters, destroyed by vandals in recent days) we understand how important a culture of respect is.”
And candidate Portesani himself also spoke about the culture of welfare: “For us it means putting people at the centre, and accompanying them towards autonomy, without welfare”. Going into the merits of culture, therefore, the candidate highlighted how “in the last 10 years of administration, the city’s places of culture have been neglected. The situation of Palazzo Affaitati is there for all to see: the museum has compromised roofs, and the rain comes in, risking ruining the works of art. A neglect that unites places of culture with the rest of the city.”
Speaking of valorisation, therefore, Portesani highlighted how it is necessary to “promote our culture: starting from violin making, we need to connect this interest with the cultural fabric of the city. And it is also necessary to return to forming a square with the other municipalities in the area, also from a cultural point of view, bringing together our excellences at all levels”.
