ARTIST’S RESIDENCE
The idea of the artist residence was born in the summer of 2022, thanks to the collaboration with the Ravenna sculptor Laura Pagliai who, fascinated by the botanical garden and the sea of Ponza, organizes an exhibition of her sculptures “en plein air” .
The availability of Dr. Biagio Vitiello, owner of the place, stimulates the idea of a fusion between the love of art and the passion for nature, the landscape and the island of Ponza.
From this meeting was born the Ponza LandArt project, in its 1st edition in 2023, which aims to create an open-air museum of contemporary art that is enriched every year with new works, bringing together two not so distant worlds, art and nature.
In 2025, the second edition, which aims to enrich the island and its nature trails with a permanent open-air exhibition of artistic tiles and land art works, in a dialogue between contemporary art, historical and naturalistic testimonies.
