Parco di Villa Buri
Via Bernini Buri 99, Verona


Linea Terra Acqua is a Nature Art Park that since 2018 is located at Villa Buri in Verona.
During the summer, the villa's park is transformed into an open-air workshop where nature and contemporary art meet and merge thanks to a creative process in which artists are called upon to devise a series of works in dialogue with the place and the nature that inhabits it.

The project consists of two parts each year: a series of conferences with professionals from the environmental and artistic sectors explore the themes of the current edition and promote the preservation of plants and the synergistic integration between nature and artworks.
Following a competition, the proposals are selected, which are then implemented and remain usable in the park throughout the summer.

Thanks to the slow action of walking in order to discover the works in the park, Linea Terra Acqua enhances the wealth of the territory and promotes a conscious, responsible and shared use of its environmental and cultural heritage.
Every year the project is enriched with new works, thus composing a stratified panorama of interventions in nature.


THE 2019 EDITION


The theme of the third edition was Labyrinths, whose implications with philosophy, psychology and art history were explored during a series of conferences with the philosopher Nicola Turrini and the art historian Marco Albertario. An exceptional jury, in which the artist Alberto Scodro also took part, selected the seven proposals which were then implemented in the park.
