Matera 2019

Imagine walking along a road and never turning, to find yourself back at the starting point. Now stop imagining, because this road exists - not only a road but an entire town, Rotondella, waiting to be discovered. The settlement, called in antiquity Rotunda Maris, has an urban configuration that is unique and shaped like a globe.

To highlight this peculiarity, on 20th April 2019, the town will organise an itinerary which enhances the distinctive layout of the town, offering visitors an experience which enhances the symbolic and conceptual content of the round shape. It will be an itinerary through landscapes, flavours and stories, enhanced by the community’s cultural expressions and values.

Dance, music and plays will feature on this circular walk, as a metaphor for a journey that is not simply from one place to another, but becomes a source of personal enrichment.

Realized in co-production by
Municipality of Rotondella
