Il canto della terra, a group exhibition curated by Paolo Repetto, explores the intimate and complex relationship between human beings and nature in an era of increasing urbanisation and environmental challenges, through a visual journey that brings together artists of international calibre. Part of the diffuse festival “L’Uomo e il Clima“, the exhibition invites us, through a variety of artistic languages, from site-specific installations to photography, from sculpture to land art and music, to reflect on our ancestral connection with the earth, our responsibility towards the environment and the intrinsic beauty of the landscape, celebrating its eternal dance and taking us on an artistic pilgrimage where art becomes an echo of the whisper of the wind, the trembling of the water, the breathing of the earth.
