In the concept event every passion of Dalla relates to a colour: art, in particular, has been identified with yellow; that’s why Villa Fiorentino will be lighted with this colour on the outside façade, while the rooms inside will exhibit a series of works inspired by the singer.

The name A modo mio” is not chosen by chance: the artists want to explain their bond to Lucio Dalla and, through their works, they testify the feeling and the emotion left them by the Bolognese artist.

Mattia Consonni, for example, is inspired by the lyrics of songs of all genre and time, as well as Silvia Fiorenza, a brilliant Roman designer.

Moreover, a representation of artists coming from Emilia Romagna will exhibit with the works of Omar Galliani and Daniela Alfarano; it highlights the profound bond and affinity between Emilians and people of Campania.

Lorenzo Puglisi distinguishes himself by using black backrounds , releasing streams of light able to define volumes, faces and body parts. The Milanese Luigi Cavalca, a creative talent of design and fashion, has exhibited in public and worship places throughout the national country.

The Neapolitan Luigi Masecchia explains art with a modern language, transforming metal caps into artworks, creating unique masterpieces in which the crown cap is both an elementary cell and a creative illumination.

Claudio Cuomo has made a brilliant work in papier-maché, representing the singer in an unusual way, while Domenico Sepe, known for having created the statue of Maradona given to the homonymous stadium, is a sculptor who works all type of material although his peculiarity is bronze.

Paolo Sandulli from the Amalfi Coast devoted himself to the production of sculpture and terracotta. Some of his works are in important hotels of the coast and in numerous private collections in Italy and abroad.
