Giuseppe Trupia

"In my opinion, art should not reproduce what we see but make visible all that is not seen."

The Governance also suggests

The objective of the Governance is both to safeguard the traditions and ancient crafts of the people of Sicily, and to sustain economically the Artisans and the Artists, both the real ethno-anthropologists of the country.
