The three main operative partners of twocalls are Enel, Acqua Dolomia and Neonlauro.
The power company Enel is the owner of the Vajont Dam: its fundamental support has allowed to actualize the vision of a call for a line, thus activating the central construction site of twocalls.
It is indeed thanks to the commitment of Acqua Dolomia, that supports DC since 2011, that it was possible to create, inside the contest, the Dolomiti Contemporanee Special Prize. It will consist of two checks, each worth 1.000 Euros, that will be appointed to the two best non-feasible projects, amongst the ones selected by the inner committee and the twocalls jury.
Neonlauro is a company that has its headquarters in the Veneto region, and has been producing neon for many years. This light technology will be the medium utilized in a call for a wall.

La compagina energetica Enel è proprietaria della diga del Vajont: il suo fondamentale sostegno ha consentito di concretizzare la visione di a call for a line, attivando così il cantiere centrale di twocalls.
È proprio grazie all’impegno di Acqua dolomia, che sostiene DC sin dal 2011, che è stato possibile istituire, all’interno del concorso, il Premio Speciale Dolomiti Contemporanee. Esso consisterà in due assegni da 1.000 euro ciascuno, che andranno ai due migliori progetti non realizzabili, tra quelli selezionati dal comitato interno e dalla giuria di twocalls.
Neonlauro è un’azienda veneta che da molti anni realizza neon. Questa tecnologia luminosa è il medium che sarà utilizzato in a call for a wall.

The Two Calls for Vajont Contest was launched by Dolomiti Contemporanee last June.
Its intent was to propose a restoring cultural reflection for the Vajont area, to this day profoundly marked by the history of the tragedy.
Two artworks to be made through the Contest, one on the Vajont Dam (line), the other on the southern façade of the Spazio di Casso (wall), which faces the scar left by the landslide of Mt.

massimo bray, former italian minister of culture, perfectly understood the spirit of the dolomiti contemporanee project. we would like to thank him for his support, ad we’re looking forward to see him here, in these high lands, in our new project sites soon.
