AROUND, a widespread and phygital exhibition project promoted by the Buzz Cultural Association and financed by the GO!2025 call (Friuli Venezia Giulia Region), in dialogue with the territories of Gorizia and Nova Gorica, European Capital of Culture 2025, will kick off in Aquileia on July 4th.

The project opens with a free evening of art and music: at the suggestive CAL Fund, in the heart of the archaeological area, Guinevere's concert will officially kick off the journey, accompanied by the presentation of site-specific works by Leonardo Petrucci (in the apse of the Domus del Buon Pastore) and Michele Spanghero (in the central garden of the Domus di Tito Macro).

AROUND is a journey of contemporary art, participation and memory, spread across the provinces of Gorizia, Udine and Nova Gorica, involving international artists in residence – Rui Yamaguchi (JPN), Ferdinand Waas (DEU), Gašper Rebernik (SLO) and Daniele Micheletti (ITA) – in the production of new video and sound works inspired by the theme of borders and the heritage of places.

The project is enriched by free and itinerant participatory workshops (video art, field recording, soundwalks), led by artists and professionals in the sector, which have given rise to collective works exhibited along the digital path. The public will be able to explore the works thanks to an interactive online map that connects the physical and digital locations of the project, activating a phygital fruition that unites territory, community and new technologies.

An invitation to explore familiar places with new eyes, to discover through art the stratification of landscape and identities, between past and future. www.buzzculture.it/around
