Parco di Villa Buri
Via Bernini Buri 99, Verona



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

With a view to developing research and application in an interdisciplinary key, each year the project consists of two parts.

A cycle of theoretical lectures with professionals from the environmental sector and the world of art, which delves into the themes of the current edition and promotes the synergic integration between nature and works, between botany and design, between the protection of plants and innovative visions, to encourage the development of a space inhabited in a sustainable way by both the plant world and social and cultural dynamics.

At the same time, thanks to an internal competition at the Academy, the project proposals that the artists themselves will create in the park are selected and will remain installed and usable throughout the summer.
Every year the project is enriched with new works, thus composing a stratified panorama of interventions in nature.

Thanks to the slow activity 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.


THE 2021 EDITION



The theme of the fourth edition is THE NEST: a space of refuge, recovery, growth and protection, in reference to both the natural world and the human one.
