Inauguration of the Resté artworks in Cerretto Langhe
Date of the event:
On 7 November 2026 the public opening is held in Cerretto Langhe, a municipality in the Langhe area in the Province of Cuneo, of three works of contemporary art created as part of the project «Resté – Percorsi ed esperienze d'arte contemporanea nelle Langhe» (“Resté – Paths and experiences of contemporary art in the Langhe”). The event takes place in the garden of the former rectory of the Church of the Santissima Annunziata, whose walls host the new works [1][2].
The works
The project comprises three works. Rizomorfe, by the artist EGEON, grew out of an artist's residency in the Langhe during which the artist collected accounts and memories from residents of different generations; the work uses organic forms and interwoven lines as a metaphor for the connections between communities and ecosystems [1][2]. Masnà, by Alberto Ruce, continues the research begun with the project «Il popolo del bosco» (“The people of the woods”) and links the faces of residents with the identity of the landscape, with a focus on childhood and the new generations [1][2]. Completing the project is Da dove nasce tutto (“Where everything begins”), a mural created by Sara Fratini in June 2026, centred on the relationship between the maternal figure, motherhood and nature [1][2].
The opening
The event on 7 November is attended by residents, visitors and enthusiasts, who have the chance to view the three works up close and learn about the creative processes behind them, in a moment described as a public presentation of the artists' work and of the dialogue developed with the local area [1][2]. The three works together form a unified visual narrative designed to engage with the garden, with the architecture of the former rectory and with the surrounding landscape [1][2].
