Meeting today with Paolo Naldini (director of Cittadellarte) who introduced Francesco Manacorda, director of Artissima, the contemporary art fair in Turin and a curator for FRAC (the Piedmont Regional Fund for Contemporary Art). Cittadellarte is the home of the FRAC collection and the residents have been given the opportunity to propose and exhibit in part of the FRAC spaces.
