Such a change would symbolize an irrevocable loss: a profound sacrilege not solely to town’s wealthy historical past but in addition to the cultural legacy for the longer term generations. We name upon our colleagues throughout the globe, competition administrators and all of the cultural operators to signal this letter to avoid wasting the final probability for redemption of some of the vital cultural and creative cities worldwide. This letter can be personally addressed to President Sergio Mattarella and Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to forestall any conversion of the cultural areas in Rome.

You may write to [email protected], “whether or not since you love Rome and perhaps have walked the parks and locations of our Il Cinema in Piazza or as a result of you’ve visited the Cinema Troisi of the Piccolo America in Rome,” Carocci stated.

    “As Renzo Piano wrote, and I subscribe after spending three months round Paris and Marseilles finding out its cultural choices, we consider that these cultural areas can evolve just like the ‘Tiers-Lieux’ that I had the pleasure of experiencing in France. Every of those can actually return to being a cinema, however the vital factor is that they reopen as locations of tradition and training, temples to nourish the soul and creativity… If we save these locations from conversion into industrial facilities, there often is the daybreak of a brand new world in Rome; a cultural renaissance that Italy wants. We ask for assist from everywhere in the world for town the place we have been born and raised.”
