PERMANENT COLLECTION PHOTOGRAPHY
Orestiadi Foundation
The festival is made of ephemeral works; in order to keep its history in a physical location, this year we inaugurate the new “photography section” of the Permanent Collection of the Orestiadi Foundation, one of the most important collections in Southern Italy. Many of the artists who have created installations presented at festival in recent years have donated one of their works to leave a trace of their passage through the city, and we believe many will continue to do so in the future. The Photography Collection is curated by Arianna Catania.
Orestiadi Foundation was founded in 1992 to enhance the heritage of cultural activities expressed by the city of Gibellina starting from the rebirth, following the devastating earthquake of 1968. Founded and directed by Ludovico Corrao until 2011, the Foundation holds one of the most important contemporary art collections in Italy. The Foundation organizes the Gibellina Orestiadi Festival, an annual exhibition of contemporary theater, contemporary dance, music and visual arts, now in its 40th edition.
