The ritual of the 38th parallel pyramid, the monumental sculpture made in 2010 by the artist Mario Staccioli returnsamong the most appreciated works of the contemporary art park of the Fiumara of art. Saturday 21 and Sunday 22 Juneon the occasion of the summer solstice, the patron Antonio Presti will open the pyramid to the public for two days of initiatives, between dances and music, in a breathtaking context. The theme chosen for this year is the enchantment of the invisible, “because the regeneration of beauty is the regeneration of the soul – says the patrons Antonio Presti – we are starting from this, from the urgency of a heresy of consistency, courage, gratuity, responsibility, commitment and example of each of us”.
To take care of the artistic direction of the rite will be Lucina Lanzara, a Sicilian singer -songwriter and producer. “The 38th parallel pyramid – observes the artistic director of the performance – is rebirth starting from the maternal uterus, the place where any living being experiences the beat, vital energy, where he begins to live, unaware and intoxicated, the enchantment of the invisible”.
For the mayor of Reitano, Salvatore Salvaggio, “The arrival of Antonio Presti’s Atelier at Villa Margi has brought a breath of air of the future to the entire hamlet, which in recent weeks we are relaunching. The first inaugurated works have already attracted several tourists intrigued by the new project, while as an administration we are ready to approve an agreement with the Fiumara d’Arte to carry out works on the ground adjacent to the Atelier, they will be 20. With the collaboration of different universities. “Special and affectionate thanks – concludes Presti – to the President of the Region who shared and contributed to the birth of the Triennale della Contenità”.
