Premio Nazionale delle Arti XV Opens with 'Journey' Theme Across Italian Academies

The Premio Nazionale delle Arti (PNA) has commenced its fifteenth edition, spotlighting figurative, digital, and scenographic arts. This initiative, organized by the Ministry of University and Research (MUR) and overseen by the Segretariato Generale del MUR, centers around the theme of 'journey' as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The exhibition will take place at Museo Mas.Edu within the Accademia di Belle Arti 'Mario Sironi' in Sassari, with an opening for invitees on December 3 and for the public on December 4, continuing until January 15, 2022. Out of over 250 submissions, 136 works were chosen by a jury that includes Luciano Nanni and Mara Delpero. The award ceremony will be held on December 3, with MUR Minister Maria Cristina Messa in attendance. The PNA emphasizes the importance of research in Italian art academies and the preservation of cultural heritage.
