Description:

"If you’re heading to Rome between September 17th-19th, you’ll want to make an evening pilgrimage to the Colisseum to take in an extraordinary video installation conceived by Thyra Hilden (Denmark) and Pio Diaz (Argentina) and curated by Gianni Mercurio and Christina Clausen.

On those evenings, video screens placed in the arches of the Colosseum will make it appear as if the monument is on fire. The installation, titled “Coliseum on Fire,” is part of a wider project, City on Fire, to which the artists have devoted themselves to for some years, creating virtual fires in important institutions, monuments, museums, and churches throughout Europe. The events in Berlin, Frankfurt, Kiev, Aarhus, and Copenhagen were especially memorable. http://www.hildendiaz.dk/."
