Cittadellarte carries its commitment to the promotion of contemporary socially oriented art forward through a double
action. This stand at Artissima not only promotes artistic practises open to experimentation and the production of
incisive visions in the collective imagination, but 50% (meaning 500 per 1000) of the revenue from sales will be used to
finance a study grant to allow an artist selected by ArtBakery, Cameroon, to take part in UNIDEE 2010.
This way, Artissima becomes a vehicle for artistic mobility and the exchange of ideas and projects on processes of
social transformation, giving life to a network of actions that itself feeds a form of economy.
