About us
Love Difference
GENERATE LOVE INSTEAD OF INTOLERANCE
WHY?
Because cultural differences are a value.
Because through art it is possible to contribute to a responsible transformation
of society.
Because we activate artistic projects that promote the encounter and the
dialogue among the different Mediterranean countries.
"Love Difference is an Artistic Movement for an InterMediterranean
Politic, to bring love to where tragic conflict arises between peoples and
cultures."
Michelangelo Pistoletto
