STUDIO FESTI HAS ORGANIZED LARGE-SCALE CELEBRATI- VE EVENTS IN MANY ITALIAN CITIES AS WELL AS INTERNATIONAL- LY, EVENTS WHICH HAVE BECOME A BENCHMARK IN THE INDUSTRY.

THE GROUND-BREAKING CHARACTER OF STUDIO FESTI’S WORK HAS ALSO HAD TO DO WITH THE SO-CALLED ARCHITECTURES OF LIGHT, PRESENTING MANY INNOVATIVE AESTHETIC AND TECHNICAL FEATURES. AN EXAMPLE OF THAT IS THE ONE DESIGNED FOR THE COMMEMORATION OF THE KOBE EARTHQUAKE, COMMISSIONED EVERY YEAR SINCE 1995.

IN THE FIELD OF FIREWORKS, STUDIO FESTI HAS TAKEN INSPIRATION FROM THE AESTHETICS, THE TECHNIQUES AND THE TYPOLOGY OF BAROQUE-STYLE PYROTECHNICAL SHOWS, COMBINING THEM WITH LIVE CLASSICAL MUSIC PERFORMANCES. A FAMOUS INSTANCE OF THIS ARTISTIC DEVELOPMENT HAS BEEN THE 1999 SAINT PETER’S SQUARE CONCERT PERFORMED BY THE ACCADEMIA DI SANTA CECILIA ORCHESTRA, AND CONDUC- TED BY MYUNG-WHUN CHUNG, IN OCCASION OF THE INAUGURATION OF THE RESTORATION WORK OF THE FAÇADE OF SAINT PETER’S BASILICA.

THE NAME OF STUDIO FESTI IS TO BE ASSOCIATED, MOREOVER, TO THE OPENING CEREMONIES OF GREAT SPORTS EVENTS, AMONGST WHICH THAT OF THE TURIN XX WINTER OLYMPICS, WHERE STUDIO FESTI WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REALIZATION OF THE SEGMENT FROM RENAISSANCE TO BAROQUE, THAT OF THE 2008 UCI CYCLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS IN VARESE AS WELL AS THE OPENING CEREMONY OF THE 2009 FINA SWIMMING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS IN ROME. SINGAPORE 2008 “DANCING SKY” UNIQUESTUDIO ART OF FESTI’S CELEBRATION

THE SPECTACLES OF STUDIO FESTI DELIVER POWERFUL MESSAGES THROUGH A UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE OF THEATRE, MUSIC, DANCE AND ART.

INCORPORATING THEIR PERSONAL STORY AND LEVERAGING THEIR ARTISTIC BACKGROUND, VALERIO FESTI AND ART DIRECTOR MONICA MAIMONE HAVE CREATED A NEW INDUSTRY, THAT OF EVENT ARCHITECTS.

THEIR WORK DRAWS UPON THE ROOTS OF THE TRADI- TIONAL ITALIAN “FESTA” OR, EVEN BETTER, “FESTA PER LA CITTÀ”: CELEBRATION FOR THE CITY.

SPLENDOUR AND MAGNIFICENCE ARE AT THE HEART OF EACH OF STUDIO FESTI’S SHOWS, THE SAME ELEMENTS THAT HAVE INSPIRED AND CONTINUE TO INSPIRE THE ITA- LIAN “ARTE DELLO SPETTACOLO”: THE ART OF THE SPECTACLE.

OUR IMAGES BECOME ICONS, UNFORGETTABLE SYMBOLS THAT REVIVE OLD MEMORIES AND CAPTURE THE DEEPEST SIGNI- FICANCE OF AN EXPERIENCE OR A PLACE, TRANSFORMING THE TOWN PIAZZA INTO A STAGE AND THE SKY INTO ITS BACKDROP.

A STUDIO FESTI SHOW IS AN UNPARALLELED WAY TO COMMUNI- CATE TO AN INTERNATIONAL AUDIENCE. OUR PRODUCTIONS USE THE UNIVERSAL LANGUAGE OF THEATRE, THE ONLY LANGUAGE THAT CAN AROUSE AND PROVOKE UNFORGETTABLE EMOTIONS WITHOUT USING ROME (ITALY), 2007 THE SPOKEN WORD. “SUMMER FEAST” FOUNDERS MONICA MAIMONE

Una vita in piazza (Life on the square)

Valerio Festi obtained his degree in 1978 at the Uni- versity of Bologna, studying the Art of entertainments. He began his artistic career by designing and staging urban celebrations, choosing the sky and the city squares (piaz- za) as the stage for his shows.

In the early 1980s, he gained fame by revamping the Italian tradition of light installations and of Baroque- style firework projects. In 1982, he established Studio Festi together with Monica Maimone, marking the beginning of a new figure – Events Architect, designing the stories, shows and dreams of any space, square and a city. Valerio Festi has been the artistic director of a considerable number of open-air events and installations all over the world: New York, Paris, Moscow, Madrid, Tokyo, Hong Kong, Prague, Reykjavik, Houston (where he was awarded by The Association of Ame- rican architects), Milan, Bogota, Beijing, Li- Adelaide (australia), 2006 sbon, Bilbao, Sydney, Toronto, Torino, Rome, etc. “dancing Sky” SHOWS
