Documentary chronicles Valerio Berruti's monumental sculpture 'Alba' in Piedmont

A 24-minute documentary produced by Sky, airing on SkyArte on October 25 at 20:40 and streaming on NOW and On Demand, recounts the creation of Valerio Berruti's 13-meter-tall public sculpture 'Alba' in Piazza Ferrero, Alba. The lightweight steel piece depicts a girl's profile above a circular fountain, inaugurated on September 29. The film features interviews with constructor Carlo De Simone, Mayor Carlo Bo, Tourism Assessor Emanuele Bolla, collector Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, critic Nicolas Ballario, Palazzo Strozzi Director Arturo Galansino, and Castello di Rivoli President Francesca Lavazza. Berruti expressed gratitude to the Ferrero family and city administration for selecting his work for the prominent square, hoping the fountain will host celebrations and the sculpture's shadow serve as a sundial. The project exemplifies a public-private collaboration.
