L’ANIMA DELLA CARTA O IL GIARDINO DI SHAHRAZĀD

L'Aquila (AQ)

On Friday, August 21, 2026, in L’Aquila, a double appointment with Susanna Cascella, the only woman of the Cascella artistic dynasty. At 6 PM, at Libreria Colacchi (Corso Vittorio Emanuele 5), the catalog “L’Anima della Carta o il Giardino di Shahrazād”, published by Cervo Volante, will be presented. At 7 PM, at Spazio F’ART (Via San Francesco di Paola 13), the solo exhibition curated by Mariano Cipollini will open. Paper becomes a living, fragile, and receptive material, capable of evoking the enchanted world of the Thousand and One Nights. Cascella’s works explore the subtle boundary between the delicacy of the support and the power of imagination taking shape, in a dialogue between sign, color, and silence. The exhibition remains open until September 5, from Monday to Saturday, 5-8 PM. Admission is free. The initiative is part of the program of L’Aquila Italian Capital of Culture 2026.
