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.
