Tiscali, a company between art and business. The Site Specific project presented in Cagliari on the occasion of its completion at Sa Illetta

Cagliari, 17th June 2008 - Tiscali, one of the main alternative European telecommunication companies, in the presence of career award winner Leone d’Oro Michelangelo Pistoletto, presents in Cagliari the completion of the Progetto Arte of Tiscali Campus in Sa Illetta.

The project opens in Italy a new chapter in the relationship between art and business, particularly between public art and workplaces. In fact, Tiscali approach to this project is the willing to use the artistic creativity to redesign role and responsibility of the company, going over the traditional use to consider art as a pure ornament for the workplaces.

Tiscali Campus represents a place in which, thanks to the creation of spaces alternative to work, allows Tiscali community to develop a collective awareness based on strong sense of identity and belonging, highlighting, by means of contemporary art, the ethical values on which Tiscali activity and community have their foundation.
