Museo Sigismondo Castromediano
Lecce, Italy
The exhibition includes 12 large-format photographs and a video, set up in a widespread way among the Landscapes of the Sea, the Land, the Sacred, the Living and the Dead that make up the permanent museum itinerary. The dialogue, sought and natural, with the archaeological finds that tell of the different landscapes of Salento, formed over the millennia by the interaction between Man and the Environment, reinforces the emphasis on the themes of Nature and Sustainability, an object of particular interest by the Castromediano. In fact, today many of the museum's activities and projects converge on them, from the educational proposals of the project "ADD_L'Arte Diminuisce la Distance + Natura" to the collaboration with the Sylva Foundation for the fundraising campaign "Let's help the forest to go a little further" dedicated to the reforestation of some stretches of the Salento area. In all of this, Burtinsky's images document an ecological disaster that affects not only the olive trees of Puglia but also the entire cultural landscape and identity of Puglia.
