Cracking Art will light up the beautiful Reggia di Caserta, one of Italy’s great symbols of grand architecture that represents the country’s beauty. From June 22th till 30th of August, giant animals will invade and further brighten up this magnificent palace.
This beautiful monument, an UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the largest palaces build in Europe during the 18th century, will host Cracking Art exhibition “Regeneration Reggia” throughout the summer.
Reggia di Caserta will be invaded by more than 50 artworks made of recyclable and recycled plastic. Wolves, frogs, snails, meerkats and swallows will be placed at the main entrance and along the gallery“Cannocchiale”which leads to the central axis of the Park.
During the exhibition period a fund-raising will be established to raise support for the restoration of the park fountains: Cracking Art mini-sculptures will be available at the Palace ticket office at the special price of 10 €.
This fund-raising initiative is part of the Cracking Art project “Art Regenerates Art” which consists of a a systematic intervention program on artistic and monumental heritage, founded on the idea that contemporary art can save the past and promote concrete actions for the restoration of monuments.
