Contexto is a widespread art exhibition that invaded the municipality of Edolo, winding its way through the streets and squares of the historic centre in open and closed public spaces. Contexto involved more than 60 young artists, many of whom are already known to the national and international public, who presented their sculptures, installations, videos, photographs and paintings.

Storytelling

The town of Edolo has once again opened its doors to young contemporary art, under the direction of Casa Testori
This is how Contexto 2017 was born, the third edition of the artistic event, on the occasion of which the artists, the route and the starting point were changed. In fact, the meeting point had moved to the Ferrovie Nord railway station, where the visitor was faced with a nice surprise: the splendid Liberty Building which, in all its splendour, welcomed the first of the 22 artists selected for the occasion. Along the route there were also monumental sculptures, installations, photographs, paintings, posters, shops to explore or admire from the windows. There were also three special projects, marked in green on the map, all dedicated to Edolo, its streets and buildings, its people and the people who live there.
