For the Third Paradise by Michelangelo Pistoletto

A fascinating contemporary reinterpretation of Michelangelo Pistoletto's celebrated Third Paradise symbol, transformed into a collective reflection on peace and cultural responsibility. In the Cortile Minore of Palazzo Ducale, artist Marco Mazzarello creates a monumental three-dimensional installation built with hundreds of burlap sacks, a symbolic material that evokes the protections used in conflict zones to safeguard heritage. The sacks become powerful visual language: vulnerability, care, and shared awareness in the perspective of the "preventive peace" imagined by Pistoletto. A work that invites reflection on what we are willing to do to preserve our cultural identity.
