EuroMilano, in collaboration with Deodato.Gallery, has launched 'Vivere ad Arte' at UpTown Milano, a district focused on innovation. The initiative aims to integrate art into daily life through community events, public installations, and a welcome gift of an artwork for each new resident. A cardboard installation by Olivier Grossetête was built with resident participation. Mr.Savethewall (Pierpaolo Perretta) created 'Lifeshot', a photo and video montage featuring residents' stories, displayed at Swiss Corner in Milan. Deodato Salafia, CEO of Deodato.Gallery, called the project a turning point. EuroMilano President Luigi Borré stated the goal is to bring art to all dimensions of UpTown, from private to public spaces.
