Telling how beautiful it is to be together respecting each other comes naturally to a city as open and inclusive as Florence. Which is why the City of Florence asked four artists- James Boy, Ache 77, Exit/Enter and Millo- to express themselves and donate their works of art not only to Ginger, a creative space designed to host various cultural events, but also to the whole city. Their works will be added to those by famous street artist Blu (ranked by The Guardian in 2011 among the world’s top 10 street artists). The project is still in the planning stage. All those interested in contributing to the project (through a donation), will have a nameplate bearing their name.
