Over more than two thousand years of history, the city of Naples has always known how to create value from difference, to the point that its inhabitants have developed a strong inclination toward hospitality and integration.
The city is a great social laboratory, where particular forms of coexistence among different social classes are tested every day, classes that have shared the same streets and the same buildings for centuries.
The close, sometimes even harsh, confrontation between people carrying very different stories makes it possible to develop an ever-new outlook through which to interpret reality. This particular approach to the contemporary can be found in the vast musical, theatrical, cinematic and literary production rooted in Neapolitan culture.
With the work Nessuno escluso (No One Excluded), ideally placed at the entrance to the city, Bianco-Valente aim to highlight the importance of keeping alive the dialogue between the different souls present in the area.
The work was created as part of the redevelopment of the via Marina coastal axis.
