Curated by Lucrezia De Domizio Durini, in collaboration with Gérard Georges Lemaire
Coordinated by: Antonietta Grandesso Promoters: Giorgia Chiozzi and Sabrina Piccoli
A work in progress

Second phase: 8 Artists & 8 Rooms in the Certosa Hotel

The artists represent diverse nations, generations, and artistic pursuits. They were carefully chosen by the
curator for their shared sense of “silence”, for years a guiding principle in the philosophy evident in all of
Lucrezia De Domizio Durini’s work. This Silence originates from Nature, belongs to the Spirit of Time and
conveys the sensitivity of those courageous enough to contest everyday stereotypes.
It is a work that takes shape over time so that the identity of and ideas behind each work can solidify. The
artists, each giving a name to their room, pay tribute to the Nature of the place, providing a broad vision of
the philosophy of their own artistic pursuits in relation to the present time. Each “Room” will be named
after the artist as an enduring testimony of their presence.
The 8 Rooms have been entrusted to the creativity of the following artists:

ROLAND CABOT (Brazil)
Orpheus

FAOUZI LAATIRIS (Morocco)
