As part of the Human Connections exhibition by Filippo Tincolini, promoted by the Municipality of Pietrasanta with the patronage of the Tuscany Region, Monumentum: art and public space will take place in Pietrasanta on Friday, May 16. The event sees the artist Filippo Tincolini as the protagonist of a double donation. The Municipality of Vinci, in fact, delivers to the Museo dei Bozzetti in Pietrasanta the model of the monumental sculpture that the artist dedicates to Leonardo and which - in 2026 - is set up in Vinci. On the same occasion, Tincolini donates Spaceman to the city of Pietrasanta, a monumental work in white Carrara marble, over 4 meters high, created thanks to the support of the sponsors Litix Spa and Henraux Spa. The appointment is at 5 pm in the Church of Sant'Agostino in Pietrasanta for a meeting dedicated to art in public space, the presentation of the works and institutional greetings. This will be followed by the unveiling of the work Spaceman, which will remain in Piazza Duomo for the duration of the exhibition together with Tincolini’s other sculptures.
Present at the event: Alberto Stefano Giovannetti, Mayor of Pietrasanta; Daniele Vanni, Mayor of Vinci, Clarissa Pasquali, City Councilor of the Municipality of Vinci with responsibility for tourism promotion and popular traditions; Chiara Celli, Director of the Museo dei Bozzetti in Pietrasanta; Roberta Barsanti, Director of the Library and the Museo Leonardiano in Vinci; Alessandro Romanini, Curator of Human Connections; Luciano Massari, Litix Spa; Paolo Carli, Henraux; Filippo Tincolini, artist. The day is part of a collateral event of Human Connections, a widespread exhibition that until June 2nd crosses the historic center of the "Little Athens" with sculptural installations in Piazza Duomo, Piazza Carducci, in the Cloister of Sant'Agostino, in the Church of Sant'Agostino and - in Marina di Pietrasanta - in the square in front of the pier. A project enriched by the visual counterpoint of HC Resonance, an exhibition by Laura Veschi who interprets Tincolini's work with a series of b/w photographs.
