Careof hosts the presentation of the project and related publication A cielo aperto. Pratiche di collaborazione nell'arte contemporanea a Latronico, both curated by Bianco-Valente and Pasquale Campanella.

The event will feature contributions from Maria Teresa Annarumma, Francesco Bertelé, Bianco-Valente, Simona Bordone, Stefano Boccalini, Pasquale Campanella, Giusy Checola, Alessandra Pioselli, and Gabi Scardi.

During the evening, excerpts from ethnographic films and videos recounting the project will also be presented.

A Cielo Aperto is an independent, self-funded initiative launched in 2005 in Basilicata by the Associazione Vincenzo De Luca.

Over the course of a decade, A Cielo Aperto has involved numerous artists in the creation of long-term projects developed in close connection with the town. Among the participants are: Fabrizio Bellomo, Francesco Bertelé, Bianco-Valente, Stefano Boccalini, Elisa Fontana, Andrea Gabriele e Andrea Di Cesare, Michele Giangrande, Elisa Laraia, Antonio Ottomanelli, Giuseppe Teofilo, Eugenio Tibaldi, Wurmkos, and Virginia Zanetti.

Focusing on shared themes, their work has revealed and highlighted the history, characteristics, and both material and symbolic forms of the place, resulting in works and interventions intended for public space.

The presentation offers an opportunity to reflect on the meaning and possible developments of art in relation to the local context and its specificities.
