Antonio Grulli appointed first curator of Turin's Luci d'Artista

Antonio Grulli, a 1979-born art critic from La Spezia, has just been named the first curator of Luci d'Artista, Turin's famous public light art program that started in 1998. This initiative features over thirty light installations from acclaimed global artists like Daniel Buren, Piero Gilardi, and Mario Merz, which have become iconic to the city. Grulli's vision is to transform this project into a true open-air museum, emphasizing innovation, sustainability, and community engagement. He plans to roll out a public program, create an accessible archive, and set up a system for managing both past and future works. He also underscores the distinctiveness of Luci d'Artista, particularly highlighting Mario Merz's installation at the Mole Antonelliana.
