For the first time in the history of the Faenza Prize, the Chinese artist Wei Bao, winner of the 62nd edition of the 2023 Faenza Prize under 35, with the work “Courtyard Twilight Series IV,” has the opportunity, along with the prize he received, to carry out a residency at the MIC in Faenza to produce new pieces in dialogue with the Museum’s collections and the Faenza tradition.
After the time spent in the educational laboratory of MIC, the new works of the artists will be on show in the MIC Project Room
After a careful reflection proposed by MIC Faenza director Claudia Casali, Wei Bao wanted to recount the difficult historical moment in our post-flood area by initiating a special dialogue with the Zauli Museum, recovering clays and materials from the basement that suffered extensive flood damage.
