IDOLO in Mirafiori, Turin
Mike Nelson’s new public artwork IDOLO will be inaugurated tomorrow in Mirafiori, an industrial area of Turin where the Fiat company was based.
The Mirafiori Community Foundation, who commissioned the work, is running a program of events in the surrounding neighborhood and city center from October 15 to 18.
The program of events represents a new chapter in the “Mirafiori dopo il Mito” (Mirafiori after the Myth) project for the enhancement of the Mirafiori neighborhood, and culminates in the inauguration of Nelson’s IDOLO in the bed of the Sangone river.
Inauguration: 16 October, 4.30-6.30pm
