Casa Paloscia

Casa Paloscia 1975 – 2021

Casa Paloscia is located outside the “walls” of the little town, in Via Valle e Vigna 12. It entered the artistic itinerary of the Borgo Museo in 2020, thus further expanding the collection and inaugurating the diffusion project of the Castagno open-air Museum from the village towards the surrounding landscape. Listed here are the main artworks (and of which we know the artist) that decorate all the external walls of the house. Some have been here since the 70s, tributes to Tommaso Paloscia and his family, in particular his wife Nara and daughter Simonetta, given by artist friends who often and gladly gathered here around the art critic, spending long and pleasant holiday days together. Others were instead placed by Simonetta Paloscia in more recent years, in particular the three sculptures signed by three women with whom the Piazzetta delle artiste (Women artists’ little square)” was inaugurated in October 2020 in dialogue with the “Via delle artiste (Women artists’s street)” in the village (where the sculptures by Diana Baylon and Chiara Coda are located, until 2019 the only two female artists present with their works in the collection of the Castagno open-air Museum).
