Contemporary ARt NOvember

Contemporary ARt November is an exhibition made in occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the flood in Florence focusing on the plurality of contemporary artistic research.

The exhibition will animate the historical palace, former home of Giorgio Vasari, with works of established artists of various disciplines including visual arts, music and literature, creating an artistic dialog with the work of international students that are taking courses of art and graphics at the Florence School of Fine Arts, with the objective of helping the younger generation to realize the importance of historical awareness and cultural exchange.

During the two evenings of events the artists and the students will present their graphic works, installations, video installations and artists books accompanied by sound environments and readings.
