the old city

FABER AND THE OLD TOWN (Fabrizio De Andrè 1940-1999) wasa day of music, dance and art in a neighborhood of the historicalcenter of Genoa , the old jewish ghetto, a place where nowadayimmigrants, prostitutes, victims of slave trade, transsexuals, pushersand consumers live and work. Thebet was to involve the most citizens, tourists, people of every raceand colour, as possible to pull down, at least for a day, all theprejudices and for starting a process of tolerance and cohabitation. Iwas involved by a friend to be part of the event (organized by Comunitàdi San Benedetto al Porto, Comune di Genova, Fondazione De Andrè eRadio Popolare) and I realized a series of mixed technique panels for astreet art installation.
