Cvtà street Fest 2024. Word to the artistic director Alice Pasquini
“Artists and art professionals from all over the world mix and let themselves be adopted by the local reality of a village surrounded by the greenery of the woods and the depths of the Cavatella, characterized by the imposing mass of the Angevin fortress, but also by the uninhabited houses, by ‘absence of young people, from migrations’, explains ad Artribune Alice “Alicè” Pasquini. “The artists burst in with the vitality of creative energy to revive the village, they bring colours, sounds and stories that make the festival a moment of relational and contextual art, in which the discovery of others and of cultural heritage, the generational meeting, the exchange between tradition and contemporaneity are central. The heterogeneous mixture of craftsmanship and innovation, tradition and novelty presented to the participants, including artists, is striking and fascinating at the same time and has guaranteed the success of the initiative over time, which has made the village an evocative tourist destination. During the Cvtà street fest not only street art works are created, but an exchange of cultures takes place which gives artistic creations an identity”.
