Drawing a city, painting a landscape”. The exhibition will be inaugurated on 3 September at the Magazzino del Sale Torre and will remain open until the end of the month, with free entry. Organized by the Palanti Romussi Foundation, chaired by the Turin lawyer Marina Motta, in collaboration with the Municipality of Cervia, the Circolo Pescatori La Pantofla, the Gruppo Culturale Civiltà Salinara and other private entities, the exhibition will present some original projects of Palanti for the birth of Milano Marittima, conceived as an innovative and particularly valuable garden-city.

A vision that is very topical again in the debate on cities and on the fight against urban overheating: the relationship between greenery, architecture and landscape imagined by Palanti, it dialogues with contemporary themes such as tactical urbanism and the need to reduce the impact of concrete and asphalt. Giuseppe Palanti died in Milan on 23 April 1946. The exhibition can be visited from Monday to Friday from 5pm to 11pm and Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 11pm.
