Dolomiti Contemporanee and Minoter once again, this time for the duration of summer 2017, grant the possibility of visiting the Colonia (Eng.: summer camp building) and several other structures that make up the former Eni Village of Corte di Cadore.
Visitors, while accompained by members of Progettoborca‘s staff, will be able to walk through the main spaces of the enormous Colonia, built on a project by Edoardo Gellner, understand the site’s project of regeneration, and discover the artworks realized inside the Colonia itself by the artists currently availing themselves of the Residency program.
Starting from July the 13th, the public will be able to access the site every Thursday afternoon, in the months of July and August. The visits will begin at 3 PM sharp, starting from the Progettoborca offices (at the former reception of the Colonia, on Via Mattei 5: please follow the road signs inside the Village to find it. Here you may find additional directions), and they have a duration of about 90 minutes.
Booking in advance is not required (with the exception of large groups).
The tour is free of charge, but a small donation is encuraged.
The Colonia will also be open to the public in conjunction with the periodic open-studio during which new artworks are presented.
The open-studio dates will be listed both on the home-page and on the showcase section of this website each time a new one is set.
Every Thursday, between 10 AM and 6 PM, it will furthermore be possible to indipendently visit the Church of Our Lady of the Cadore.
We’d like to also remind that, between May and September, the Boite Hotel and the Corte Residence, both located inside the Village, and just like it designed by Edoardo Gellner, are open for business.
It is possible to sign up for the Progettoborca newsletter to be regularly updated on its activities.
