The school as a space for art.
Giant wolves, brightly colored frogs, and snails made of regenerated plastic inhabit the corridors of a school. It sounds like the beginning of a fairy tale, but it is an everyday reality at the De Amicis Institute in Rovigo, which, with the project “Colorful Safari,” has chosen to break down the boundaries between education and contemporary art.
The peaceful invasion of Cracking Art
In Rovigo, this “invasion” has found a home across the two De Amicis campuses: 15 artworks that have transformed the institute into a true “spread-out” art gallery, capable of surprising and engaging the eye every day.
Students: from spectators to protagonists
The real strength of “Colorful Safari” lies not only in the sculptures, but in the way the school has embraced the project. The students, in fact, have become an active part of the experience. one of the founders of the movement, students have become active participants in the experience:
Students from the Graphic Design and Communication program have shaped the visual identity of the initiative, bringing creativity and design skills into play.
Students from the Tourism program have become true cultural mediators, guiding visitors through the artworks and explaining the philosophy of the movement, in an experience that combines education with real professional practice.
A project that not only brings art into unconventional spaces, but also makes it alive, participatory, and deeply educational.
