From Friday 24 May to Sunday 26 May BOOKS, a festival dedicated to art books, will be held in the Sala delle Ciminiere at MAMbo.
This is a different kind of fair as it aims to propose, using the book as a mediator, content that facilitates the exchange of knowledge between artists and collectors.
In addition to the exhibitions of the numerous artists, there will also be a lounge area for talks with authors and collectors that will provide interesting stimuli over the three days of the festival.
In this edition of the festival, there will also be a tribute aimed at illustrating the career of the artist Andrea Pazienza with a series of original books and dossiers and the exhibition of Mario Diacono who will hold a video interview in the Sala delle Ciminiere.
