Cagliari, 6 September 2023 – Inaugurated this morning at the I Fenicotteri Shopping Center “Un Mare D'Aria”, the Inflatable Art exhibition that is “consciously” animating the summer of Gallerie Sardegna, the sign that identifies the shopping centers managed by the international real estate solutions company on Nhood on the island (Olbia Mare - Olbia, I Fenicotteri – Santa Gilla/Cagliari, Porte di Sassari – Sassari).

After having fascinated the visitors and tourists of the Olbia Mare Centre, and before reaching the Porte di Sassari Shopping Centre, from today until 1 October the artistic forms of fascinating marine creatures, such as fish, octopuses, jellyfish and starfish, will they will float lightly in flight thanks to Inflatable Art, an artistic movement born in the 1900s with which artists create infinite forms, modeling the air. In this summer of 2023, walking in the "Sardinia Galleries" will be like exploring the riches of underwater life from the perspective of the seabed: a unique experience that gives the sensation of virtually "swimming" in the sea of air around you.

The exhibition, which enjoys the patronage of the Autonomous Region of Sardinia, the patronage of the Municipality of Olbia, the Municipality of Cagliari and the Municipality of Sassari, and has the collaboration of Legambiente and numerous territorial associations, has the objective of raising public awareness of all ages on the importance of protecting the ecosystem and the Sardinian seas, of promoting and spreading the culture of sustainability and the protection of our most important heritage: the Planet.

Present at the ribbon cutting were Maria Dolores Picciau, Councilor for Culture and Entertainment of the Municipality of Cagliari, Alessandro Sorgia, Councilor for productive activities, tourism and promotion of the territory of the Municipality of Cagliari and representatives of numerous local associations.

This initiative has all my support because it effectively contributes to growing the culture of respect for the environment and the protection of our precious territory and our sea. The combination of art and ecology brings together values that in our society are the salt for a more sustainable present and future. The contents that art is able to convey represent an asset to be promoted to nourish the lives of citizens of profound beauty and ecology is, today more than ever and increasingly urgent, the paradigm of social and environmental sustainability which is concretely reflected in the lives of every citizenstates Antonio Piu, regional councilor of Green Europe .

I find this project extraordinary which combines the promotion of contemporary art with important messages on environmental protection and respect for the Sardinian ecosystem. Thanks to this initiative, art, through immersive and denunciatory works, becomes the custodian of profound social values, contributing to the construction of a community sensitive to ecological issues " states Maria Dolores Picciau, Councilor for Culture and Entertainment of the Municipality of Cagliari .

The municipal administration participates with pleasure but above all with great conviction in this important project. Sustainability is a theme particularly dear to me in terms of sustainable tourism on which we have focused since the beginning of the council with appreciable results. This initiative is also of fundamental importance for our city, for the protection of the environment, its sea and its coasts. Just as the work that the students will carry out as testimonials for the protection of our territory will be relevant " states Alessandro Sorgia, Councilor for productive activities, tourism and promotion of the territory of the Municipality of Cagliari .

“We are convinced that art is a very powerful vehicle for conveying a message of sustainability, even more so when it comes to marine ecosystems, increasingly threatened by an irresponsible approach, and "Un Mare d'Aria" is an excellent transmission vehicle through the works on display to better understand and protect our splendid marine heritage, an inestimable wealth that is protected so that everyone can enjoy it in a responsible waystates Michele Meloni, President of Legambiente Sardegna .

"Our mission is to be citizens of the world, committing skills and good practices to safeguard nature and the ecosystem, thanks to working in synergy with local institutions and associations" says Nadia Mombelli, Shopping Center Manager of the Nhood shopping centers in Sardinia .
