Artisti in Vetrina 2012
What a nice new idea: it will be possible to shop Venice in a new way! In 70 shops all over the city center you will have the chance to admire different operas from local and international artistist, just beside the goods that you will (probably!) buy.
This new event, "Artisti in Vetrina 2012", is promoted by the Deutsch-Italian cultural association, the international group TheSeven, Confesercenti and the city hall administration.
To be honest, this is not a really "new" thing. "Artisti in Vetrina" is the union of trade and art, as it has always been in Venice since the beginning of its history. But we were loosing this connection, so we can consider it as a new proposal. We hope that it will not be the last!
The area that has been more sensible to this initiative is San Polo, with more than 30 participating shops. Also some Art Galleries are participating, this means that it has been seen as an opportunity to increase the synergy between different kind of art, and not as a new competitor.
Don't miss the opportunity, you will have the chance to see "Artisti in Vetrina 2012" just until April 30th!!! You can download the list of artists and shops by clicking here.
