The Rivellino in Locarno, Switzerland, is attributed to Leonardo
da Vinci. It was built in 1507 as a new sector of the already
existing castle. It is the only extant building designed by Leonardo
da Vinci. In 2007 Emanuel Pimenta composed a continuous seven
day concert as the official celebration of the five hundred years
of the building. Now, as a parallel event to the International Congress The
Erased Frontier - Globalization and Culture after the Crisis, at Monte
Verita Foundation in Ascona - Locarno, created by Giorgio Alberti, through AlchimiArte and in collaboration with Eranos
Foundation there will be an art exhibition, film projections
and the concert installation with Emanuel Pimenta's works - with
the collaboration of the Contemporary Art Gallery Il Rivellino
and the Publishing House ELR, and curated by Giorgio Alberti
and Jean Olaniszyn, all happening inside Leonardo's building.
