The Associazione Socio Culturale Infart, Mr. Andrea Crestini declares, involves and supports street art and the most recent forms in both the Italian and European current artistic landscape, managing and implementing exhibits, events and workshops. Infart was born of the passions its member devoted to graffiti and then, with time, with all those forms of art centering on walls, including posters, stencils and paintings. Street art remains the main focal point for our Association and its initiatives in the area, which involve public and private entities, a wide audience and revives degraded city areas. |

The only viable alternative to the fruitless repression on writers, and therefore to a criminal generation, adds Mr. Alberto Capozzi, vice-president of the Associazione Ologram, lies in investing towards creativity, setting up the bases of a society in which expressional skills are valued as resources. Culture and artistic development, as they activate and stimulate the mind, have always been the engine of advanced societies.
Having the opportunity of experiencing art every day in the everyday life is an opportunity for all and is an innovation consubstantial to writing”. |
