The jury of the Visual Arts Section–featuring Cristiana Perrella, Caterina Riva, MACTE Director, and Francesco Stocchi, Curator at Boijmans van Beuningen Rotterdam–will choose the winning work which will enter in the MACTE collection, through a cash prize.

The Architecture and Design Section was activated through an international open call to imagine the space, layout and interior design of the future MACTE Library. The six proposals that will be presented in the exhibition, have been chosen by the jury with Cristiana Perrella, Federica Sala, curator and design advisor, Marco Rainò, architect, designer and curator, and Paolo De Matteis Larivera, Fondazione MACTE's President.
