Laura Pompeo is no longer the culture councilor of Moncalieri (Turin). In her place, Antonella Parigi. Mayor Paolo Montagna’s decision came to fruition this morning, at the end of very tense days within the majority that governs the municipality following the clash between the now former councilor and the mayor.
Together with Culture, the mayor has chosen to entrust Paris with the mandates for Equal Opportunities, Tourism, Library, Theaters and Museums, Royal Residences, International Relations and Relations with the Metropolitan City.
«I telephoned Laura Pompeo to thank her for the work done in recent years – declares the Mayor of Moncalieri, Paolo Montagna – In politics it happens that relationships change, but what matters is the collective project which always comes first, because the citizens ask politics for unity of intent and action. Today a new page opens and I am really happy that Antonella Parigi has decided to bet with us in the Moncalieri project, putting her history and her vision at the service of our Community. You are one of the most authoritative profiles in the world of culture and I thank you for accepting our proposal. Together we will work to build the foundations of Moncalieri 2026: a city that wants to look beyond its borders with a project that concerns the metropolitan area and the Piedmontese territory.”

«The Mayor asked me if I was available to lend a hand to the City of Moncalieri in its important challenges, which concern the entire Piedmontese territory – declares the new Paris Councilor, for years regional councilor for Culture – I accepted with enthusiasm and I am ready to get to work immediately on multiple fronts. From the role of the Castle within the Savoy Residences system, to the management plan of its Park which will open in 2025, up to the theatres: from the Matteotti, the subject of redevelopment works, which we imagine as the home of companies that in this historical moment are struggling to find spaces in the metropolitan area, to the Fonderie Limone, just on the eve of the expiry of the concession contract with the city”.
