International art festival on Capri

Opening on September 4, the first edition of the project Capri The Island of Art is an open air art festival which involves about 20 national and international contemporary artists invited to interact with the island’s locations and stories. Performances, audio and video installations, large sculptures, night projections, exhibitions in public and private location are all part of a packed program that will continue for four months. The project will also include the city of Naples as the ideal bridge connecting the sea, land and underground with the involvement of the Naples Metro Art Stations and the most important museums of contemporary art. The many artists engaged by the two curators, Marco Izzolino and Lucia Zappacosta, include Santiago Sierra, Lawrence Weiner, Andrea Aquilanti, Mario Airò and Bianco-Valente.(photo: By Joergsam (Own work) [CC BY-SA 3.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0)], via Wikimedia Commons)
