The Project

One of the features of the works by Martin Creed is that of mixing aspects of low and high culture, music and visual arts, performances and installations. Once again, in this work all these elements are combined in a unique installation "to listen to". For his work Creed has taken advantage of the presence of the city tower's bells, which besides being a medium for the transmission and diffusion of important news, (weddings, deaths, births but also danger), and functioning as an indicator of the flowing of the time of the community (the religious and the working time), is also a symbol and a reminder of the identity of the city. Every day at 19.00 the church bells of the Duomo and of Sant'Agostino will play a duet.
