The 28th edition of Luci d\u2019Artista<\/em> is about to begin, and it comes with major news: four new works by international artists \u2014 Gintaras Did\u017eiapetris, Tracey Emin, Riccardo Previdi, and Soundwalk Collective with Patti Smith and Philip Glass \u2014 will expand the city\u2019s permanent collection, the result of collaborations with artists and institutions from around the world.<\/p>\n

The new lights will be unveiled during the opening night on Friday, October 24, starting at 6:30 pm, when Turin will once again light up with its installations, turning the city\u2019s sky into a vast stage for works conceived by great artists for public space. Once switched on, the Luci<\/em> will remain visible until January 11, 2026.<\/p>\n

As in past editions, and in line with its institutional mission, Fondazione Torino Musei has been entrusted by the City of Turin with the realization and promotion of Luci d\u2019Artista<\/em>, a project that over the years has become the longest-running and most representative initiative in creating a dialogue between contemporary art, public space, civic identity, and cultural life.<\/p>\n

The new Luci d\u2019Artista<\/em> installations<\/h3>\n

Among this year\u2019s new light installations, two bear the mark of Fondazione CRT, a longstanding supporter of Luci d\u2019Artista<\/em>. Thanks to the contribution of Fondazione Arte CRT and OGR Torino, the 2025 edition will be further enriched, strengthening the bond between contemporary art and the city.<\/p>\n

The first major news is the arrival of one of the giants of international contemporary art: British artist Tracey Emin<\/strong>. Her participation was made possible by Fondazione per l\u2019Arte Moderna e Contemporanea CRT, which, on the occasion of its 25th anniversary, decided to donate to the City a prestigious neon artwork by one of the most acclaimed artists worldwide, known \u2014 among her many expressive languages \u2014 for her iconic light creations.<\/p>\n

In addition, the collaboration with OGR Torino<\/strong> continues to grow with a special project designed for its monumental courtyard, where a video work will be presented by Soundwalk Collective<\/strong> together with legendary poet and singer-songwriter Patti Smith<\/strong>, a global rock icon, and American composer Philip Glass<\/strong>, considered one of the pioneers of minimalist music.<\/p>\n

Also featured in this 28th edition is a work by Riccardo Previdi<\/strong>, donated to the city thanks to the partnership with the Nitto ATP Finals, and a significant neon installation by Lithuanian artist Gintaras Did\u017eiapetris<\/strong>, made possible by the contribution of the Lithuanian Culture Institute as part of the Lithuanian Culture Year in Italy.<\/p>\n
