Gibellina Experience: a journey through memory, art, and rebirth

Service

Discover Gibellina, a city that has transformed a tragedy into an open‑air creative laboratory. Destroyed by the violent 1968 earthquake, Gibellina was rebuilt a few kilometers away, becoming an international symbol of artistic and cultural regeneration.


Our excursion will take you to discover the most evocative places of this unique reality, where contemporary art becomes narrative, emotion, and identity.

The Cretto di Burri – The wound transformed into art

First stop: the monumental Cretto di Burri, one of the largest land‑art works in the world.
Created by the artist Alberto Burri, the Cretto covers the remains of old Gibellina with a vast white shroud of concrete. Walking through its fissures means crossing memory, listening to silence, and feeling the bond with what once was.
A place that moves deeply and leaves an indelible mark.

Consagra’s Stella – The symbol of the new Gibellina

We will continue towards modern Gibellina Nuova, where the iconic Stella by Pietro Consagra rises—a monumental sculpture welcoming visitors at the entrance to the town.
Its slender, white, imposing form represents rebirth, hope, and the will to look forward after destruction.
A perfect synthesis of art, architecture, and urban identity.

Civic Museum of Contemporary Art – An unexpected treasure in the heart of Sicily

The excursion continues with a visit to the Civic Museum of Contemporary Art, home to works of great value created by Italian and international artists who contributed to the city’s rebirth.
Installations, sculptures, paintings, and site‑specific works tell the story of a visionary project that transformed Gibellina into an open‑air museum like no other.
A perfect place for lovers of contemporary art and stories of cultural resilience.
