Within Christmas events, just yesterday has open an original installation in the heart of Siena, that celebrates at the same time a great artist from the past and the talent of children, the future of creativity. In the courtyard of Palazzo Pubblico there is an installation made by fir trees and plants with spherical and spiral shape, decorate with more than 600 drawings by students of childhood school of Siena and province, and is open until 6th January.
This artwork, that represents the Tree of Children Art Museum in Siena, is inspired by a genius of contemporary art, Vasilij Kandinskij, 68 years after his death: he was the creator of abstract painting and worked also for theatre, with Pictures from an exhibition, piano composition by Musorgskij, realized on stage on 1928.
The art learning activity conceived by Santa Maria della Scala, that hosts the museum for children, is a confirmation of the interest about creativity, that can be developed at an early age. Also during holidays is possible to book workshops or visit the museum, all the activities are part of Sol La Siena program, promoted by the municipality and dedicated to tourists and Senese people. During Christmas is very nice to walk through Siena, celebrate with your own family and spend moments which history, charm, art and beauty are meeting.
