About Emotions Carved

Emozioni Scolpite is the anthological exhibition dedicated to Remo Ponti (1938-2025), the sculptor who, starting from 2013, hand-crafted over a thousand bas-reliefs in the Piazzo area of Albino, in Valle Seriana, each linked to a story, a memory, an emotion. The exhibition, organised by Insieme per Piazzo, Arte sul Serio, and Fondazione LESTER, guides the visitor through the symbolic places of the artist's work – the carved wall of Piazzo, the Piazzale dei Caduti, and the church of Sant'Anna – and opens with the unveiling of two commemorative plaques. A tribute to a popular artist and a widespread artistic heritage that tells the memory of the Municipality of Albino, in the province of Bergamo.

The Artist of Piazzo

Emozioni Scolpite is the anthological exhibition dedicated to Remo Ponti (1938-2025), a sculptor who left a deep mark on the Piazzo area of Albino, in the province of Bergamo. Starting in 2013, Ponti hand-crafted over a thousand bas-reliefs, each linked to a story, a memory, an emotion: a widespread artistic heritage, carved directly into the walls and spaces of the hamlet.

A Journey Through the Places of His Work

The exhibition guides the visitor through the symbolic places of the artist's work: the carved wall of Piazzo, the Piazzale dei Caduti, and the church of Sant'Anna, on Via Mazzini. It is a journey that intertwines art and territory, where the sculptures are not mere works to be observed but an integral part of Albino's landscape.

A Collective Tribute

The exhibition, with free admission, is organised by Insieme per Piazzo, Arte sul Serio, and Fondazione LESTER, and opens with the unveiling of two commemorative plaques. It is a tribute to a popular artist and to the memory of a community, which through his work continues to tell the emotions and stories of the Municipality of Albino and the Valle Seriana.
