WINE, ART, PHOTOGRAPHYGANZO ART FOLLOWING THE EXPOSITION AT GANZO - CULTURAL ASSOTIATION, OF FOOD & WINE AND ART, FLORENCE, VOLOGNANO CASTLE WILL BE PLEASED TO HOST: RADICI – ROOTS
BY GLORIA SULLI
Gloria Sulli is an artist from Abruzzo who brings to Florence her fear of the conflict that arises between remaining anchored to her homeland and the desire to travel. They are roots clinging to the pavement of the universe not belonging to a single hemisphere. It seems, therefore, that the transfer of the plastic experience is equivalent to a musical one. Sulli's aim is not to add the sounds of nature to this experience but to provide a musical sheet that each and every one of us will execute as an imaginary reading. Turning heavy and inert material into immaterial and airy lightness, using different elements composed of strings and sheets with a minimum of physical presence, like acupuncture on space. Reaching a dimension that is more open to synesthesia, to interferences between all sensorial spheres according to the rule of obtaining maximum effect with minimum means, like causing tumults in space by blows of hidden hands. But there is more to this. The works are a clear underlining of how man and his impermanence relays invisibility to those whose roots are well-anchored. It is a dialogue between emptiness and fullness, a question that has accompanied all Contemporary Art in which peripheral decentralization prevails over the search for the center. Yet Sulli seems to go beyond such a concept with the description of her anchored subjects, unbridled by existential veins that subtract or attract towards a mobility of a reign or a simple end.

Successful eventsSUCCESSFUL EVENTS
Successful events for the presentation of the new wines of the "Castello di Volognano" . Large public coming in a charming and picturesque setting of the medioeval village.
WINE, ART, PHOTOGRAPHY"BETWEEN ILLUSION AND REALITY" Artists: painting - Lorenzo Brini and photography - Francesco Guiducci
Painting and photography, a union in which the wine is the link and through which the two young designers have made their emotions, ironic and fantastic.
The project derives its force from the ability of Volognano, a small medieval village near Florence, to transform itself into a Genius Loci for artists, in much the same way that it has become a terroir for the wines of Castello di Volognano. In both cases, the goal is to transfer to the artist, as to the winemaker, the ability to fashion something unique and unrepeatable.
WINE & DESIGN
LIBO PROJECT
"Libo", Accessories for wine experience": tasting experience for wine lovers, a functional jewels seeking a relationship between the traditional gesture of libare and contemporary design.
The accessory demonstrates the evocative power of rituals of wine culture and reinterprets the richness of tastevin, the emblematic tasting instrument worn at the neck by sommeliers.
