ITALY – Save art with street art

ITALY – Save art with street art

An Italian non-profit initative, LinkedARTS, has started a crowdfunding action to restore two 16th-century paintings in the church of Santa Maira della Pace in Rome, by means of “an artistic joint venture between ancient and contemporary art”.

The project, an initiative of three restorers, hopes to raise 28.000 euros needed for the restoration by the two work by mannerist painter Gerolamo Siciolante da Sermoneta. Roman street artist Lucamaleonte has agreed to supply original artworks specifically created for this project as a reward for donors.
