AMONG ARTWORKS
IN A WONDERFUL AREA
PIEVASCIATA B.A.C. – Hamlet of Contemporary Art: A TOUR THROUGH 12 ARTWORKS THAT ENHANCE THE VILLAGE AND THE SURROUNDING STREETS
THE IDEA
Pievasciata, a little village in the heart of Sienese Chianti countryside, is being transformed into a ‘Borgo d’Arte Contemporanea’ a Hamlet of Contemporary Art. The project, born from a collaboration between the cultural association FRIENDS OF THE PARK, the district of Castelnuovo Berardenga, the province of Siena and the region of Tuscany plans the installation of a dozen art works in Pievasciata and surrounding area.
The idea is to involve both individuals and institutions in displaying works of art on their own land with a view to enhancing a specific area such as the Chianti, famous for its wine and picturesque old hamlets.
