Museo Pino Pascali Announces 2017 Season Focused on 'Dialoghi senza confini'
On September 24, 2016, the Fondazione Pino Pascali Museo Arte in Polignano a Mare inaugurated its latest exhibition season, featuring the 19th Premio Pino Pascali, which was granted to German artist Christiane Löhr. This exhibition showcases works from previous laureates, including AES+F (2015) and Fabrizio Plessi (2014). Museum director Rosalba Branà expressed satisfaction with the success of 'Tutorial: video artisti cinesi di ultimissima generazione' but conveyed disappointment regarding 'Convivium'. The theme for 2017 is 'Dialoghi senza confini', highlighting Adriatic/Balkan artists through partnerships with institutions in Croatia, Slovenia, Montenegro, Albania, and Greece. The museum has updated its terrace and garden for summer activities while operating on a limited budget of €150,000, relying on European projects.
