From 8 December 2021 to 6 January 2022, the city of Florence is transformed into an open-air gallery hosting digital art projects on the surfaces of the city’s buildings and monuments.
Two of our projects have been accepted and will animate the architectural surface of two of the most iconic buildings in the city: the Spedale degli Innocenti in Piazza SS.Annunziata and Ponte Vecchio.

We are pleased to announce a new stage in our project to promote Italian digital creativity!
MEET, the International Centre for Digital Art and Culture located in the heart of Milan, presents for the first time in Italy an exhibition dedicated to digital projects produced in our country by 27 creative studios which stood out for their ability to innovate, experiment and develop new forms of artistic expression.
From July 6th to August 31st, you can immerse yourself in the immersive and video mapping artworks created by 27 Italian digital art studios surprising and fascinating visitors from all over the world with their creativity in recent years.
A journey through images, sounds and visual narratives made in Italy designed to offer an overview of the styles, languages and techniques used in the production of shows and digital content of the highest level.
Italian Digital art Experience is an exhibition by MEET, curated by Stefano Fake, in collaboration with Bright Festival.
The collective exhibition stems from the itinerant project Farnesina Digital Art Experience, promoted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.
Exhibition programme:
The group exhibition will include works created by 27 Italian creative studios working in the experimentation and production of digital audiovisual installations, gathered within three thematic areas:
> The main hall will host the first collective immersive art project ever realised in the world: “Farnesina Immersive art Experience”.
A work lasting over 60 minutes, designed to envelop the spectator in a spectacle of images, sounds and visual narratives inspired by the themes of art, history, literature and current affairs.
> A first gallery will be dedicated to the art of videomapping, with the scale reproduction of the shows realised by Italian digital creators in the international stages of the project. These include the famous show created on the Palazzo della Farnesina, which kicked off the project in 2019.
> The second gallery will host some of the installations that have been hosted in recent years by European festivals.
