‘The Borgese Project’: From this immense slab of stone (10 ton) the artist Eolo Paul Bottaro will create a statue of the revered Polizzi figure Giuseppe Borgese (1882-1952). Giuseppe Borgese was a poet, journalist, writer, an academic, professor of literature and political activist. He is very much an admired and respected Polizzano…. he hailed from Polizzi Generosa. We are very pleased to be one of the major sponsors of this exciting and important work together with the administration of Polizzi. And we can’t wait to see it evolve and be unveiled in the summer in Polizzi.
