Text description provided by the architects. Darfo is a thermal resort in the lower Camonica Valley, surrounded by a beautiful mountain range and internationally known for its thermal baths. The design for new public spaces involves the areas connected to the railway and bus stations, which were developed according to XX century functionalist models in the sixties.
This proposal identifies a few functional specifications and articulates the space into three main areas, differentiating the central pedestrianized area from the adjacent areas that can be accessed by cars. The central part is the core of the project, it directly accesses the opposite railway station from a car-free area. This pedestrian square becomes the gateway to the town, as well as the new urban center, a place for social gatherings and suitable for events.

The pedestrian square has a pavement made of Portuguese granite slabs of 132×40 cm, arranged in a grid in the central part of the square, and the soil with a lawn and an irrigation system.
© Francesca VezzoliThe south-facing car park-market area rationalizes the space with almost the same number of parking spaces as in the previous layout
There is particular care to the peculiarity of the asphalt that assumes
a reddish-purple color that is coherent with that of the porphyry cobble
Near the station there is a fountain made with a system of jets
that can be regulated with different heights and with a variable chromatic lighting system

An early start (in comparison to some seasons) in April running through to mid-October moving from the drier climbs of Portugal and Spain at the start to traditional enduro territory in Wales
The series has a pattern of alternating which rounds and nations topping and tailing the season with Portugal and Spain opening the series next year and a conclusion in Germany come Autumn
and Wales form the middle part of the year before next year’s International Six Days Enduro in Bergamo
brings a break (July accepted) in August 24-29
Then follows a busy end to the GP season with three rounds across six weeks – in Requista
Italy during September followed by the final round in historic Zschopau

a new museum entirely dedicated to Franca Ghitti (Erbanno 1932 - Brescia 2012) will open in Darfo Bo ario Terme (Brescia)
born out of the will of the Municipality of Darfo Boario Terme
the “Franca Ghitti Archive” Foundation chaired by Professor Maria Luisa Ardizzone
the Mountain Community and the Consortium of BIM Municipalities of Valle Camonica.The initial core of the museum will be located in a recently renovated area of the former convent
The new museum intends to deepen and enhance Franca Ghitti’s work and also aims to be a study center
where Franca Ghitti’s Archives will be kept
bringing together various writings and the artist’s unpublished Notebooks and her private library
On the occasion of the opening of the new museum spaces
a double day of studies curated by Elena Pontiggia and Fausto Lorenzi will be organized on September 23 and 24
and will be attended by leading critics and scholars
director of the Vatican Museums’ Contemporary Art Collection; philosopher and writer Alessandro Carrera
author of the most comprehensive monograph on Franca Ghitti; Cecilia De Carli
curator of the artist’s general catalog
“to be inaugurated on September 23 is an important ’preview’ of what will take shape as the complete Franca Ghitti Museum
An extensive preview that will gradually be implemented but will already be able to provide the visitor with a precise idea of the artist’s entire variegated production
It begins with an anthology of the Vicinie
author in 1980 of a fundamental essay on Franca Ghitti
The Vicinie cycle (”magic boxes," composed of a geometric wooden structure in which evocative and symbolic figures inhabit) is inspired by the peasant communities of Val Camonica and other parts of Italy
which from the time of the barbarian invasions to the Napoleonic era were bound by bonds of solidarity
The Vicinie come from the artist’s childhood memories
the memory of the madie and santelle - the holy shrines - that he saw in the houses
and they interpret those memories by reconnecting with the idea
of a sculpture that accommodates space and inserts figures and forms in a kind of box
so that the void becomes an integral part of the work
There will also be examples of Franca Ghitti’s entire career: the Tondi
circular structures inspired by the outcomes of contemporary geometric sculpture-painting
but also by the shape of the bottoms of barrels and casks that the artist saw in Franciacorta; the Iron and Wood Woods
all cycles of works in which Ghitti evokes an archetypal space-time in free forms
suspended between conceptual installation and reminiscences of the past including Lombard Romanesque
the artist arranges on the floor in large concentric circles a series of scraps
They are sundials that stand not on the wall but on the ground
vertical wooden sculptures worked with lists
notches and rhythmic carvings (the liber obtained under the bark becomes the custodian of the community’s knowledge) that will converge in the Bosco
a wall of modular elements that marks the time of history and provisions
but also the enclosure around which to walk and in which to wander to interrogate as in a domestic archive the forms of existence and the community of men
At the foot of the Wood is the Offering Round with a setting of cups or ladle cups
which in ancient forges were used to pour molten metal into forms and here are charged with a sense of sacredness
And there will be a reference to the Gates of Europe
assemblages of iron blades and scraps that evoke gates and wall-thresholds
restless barricades that confront and disturb space
which the artist presented for the first time at the OK Harris Gallery in New York
These are books composed of sheets pierced by a long sequence of nails
which mix the elements of ancient Crucifixions with the creation of modern artist’s books
Other Alphabets is the title that Ghitti invented in the last years of his life to define the universe to which he gave shape by drawing on his own visionary tension and blending instinct and calculation
geometric-mathematical rigor and inspiration
“In the new museum,” says Elena Pontiggia
“the artist’s works will be grouped
in order to give as much account as possible of the expressive vicissitude of an artist who never repeated herself but always invented new subjects
“The goal that the Municipality of Darfo Boario Terme and the Franca Ghitti Archive Foundation set for themselves,” said the Mayor of Darfo Boario Terme
“is to reach the completion of the museum itinerary by 2025
called to speak also about contemporary art and the most relevant issues of the moment.”
it is planned to identify a qualified figure who will give international prominence to the same
as international has been the art of Franca Ghitti
who has always been inspired by her Val Camonica
but at the same time by Africa (where she lived and worked for two years)
New York (where she exhibited several times)
and the Europe of Kokoschka (with whom she studied in Salzburg) and Brancusi

“Bitcoin Accepted” is the clear slogan referring to the new places that include the queen of crypto
This is currently happening in the valleys of Bergamo and Brescia with the first three businesses that will accept Bitcoin from 25 February
According to reports
three shops in the Bergamo and Brescia valleys will be accepting Bitcoin payments from Friday 25 February
‘Bitcoin Accepted’ to pay for articles
An initiative that suggests that northern Italy is ready to participate in the mainstream spread of cryptocurrencies
It seems that the first Bitcoin Village in the provinces of Brescia and Bergamo was also inaugurated in Darfo Boario Terme
The Bitcoin Village is a physical point of contact for BTC buying and selling
When referring to ‘Bitcoin Accepted’ one cannot but look at the number of Bitcoin ATMs installed in the area
According to Coin ATM Radar’s data
there are exactly 18 BTC and other crypto ATMs installed in Brescia
Following the data from the same site, it seems that Brescia outpaces Lombardy’s provincial capital Milan in terms of installed Bitcoin ATMs, which apparently has only 12
Various Bitcoin ATM estimates have been made at the close of 2021 and it has been calculated that on average 50 ATMs for BTC and crypto have been installed per day worldwide
the ranking of this particular category aimed at expanding Bitcoin and crypto mainstream saw the United States in first place with almost 30,000 machines installed
Italy ranked 12th with 69 Bitcoin ATMs installed
