Parks & Nature

Three are the main features of the Park: • integration between art and nature • multicultural artists • diversity of materials used Each artist has visited the forest and then made a specific proposal for the site chosen. The union between the works and the trees, the sounds, the colors, the light and every other natural element is total. In fact, here the man's work does not tend to prevail over nature, but to supplement and enhance it. http://www.chiantisculpturepark.it/index.html
