CARLOS GARAICOA

The Cuban artist's installations on show at the Rocca Maggiore in Assisi

Contemporary art enters a medieval fortress. 

The four artistic installations conceived and realised by Carlos Garaicoa are the first of their kind to be placed in the Rocca Maggiore, a monument that is an identity symbol of the City of Assisi, an inseparable part of its architectural and human landscape but also a historical memory that has been alive in the civic memory for centuries.

Assisi a message city, capital of values, that wants to meet the artistic path and contaminate itself with free and creative thought inspired by the great universal values of fraternity, humanism and freedom.

Carlos Gariacoa's artistic work, like the flight of birds to be heard, brings precisely freedom, like a fresh and colourful wind.

The catalogue collects images of the 4 installations - Soñamos en la superficie rayada de un cristal, Oratorio, No way out, Ahora juguemos a desaparecer (II) - and a rich selection of other works by the artist over time in other places in the world.
