Claudia Virginia Vitari Launches Second Artistic Residency at Rome's Gnosis Adolescent Center

The second phase of Claudia Virginia Vitari's artistic residency has commenced in Rome at the Gnosis 'INFORMARE' Daytime Therapeutic Center for Adolescents. The project is organized by A-HEAD Project, the artistic arm of Angelo Azzurro Onlus, in collaboration with Galleria Raffaella De Chirico Arte Contemporanea and the clinical team at the center. Vitari, a visual artist based in Berlin, is conducting workshops in drawing, painting, and screen printing with the adolescents. The experiences and narratives gathered will inform new sculptural and installation works using glass, rice paper, and iron. The process will culminate in a major exhibition in Rome, where the new pieces will dialogue with works from her 'Le Città Invisibili' series. The initiative aims to use art as a tool for inclusion and to foster collective awareness about mental health and institutionalization.
