Nucré is a project aimed at initiating a dialogue between contemporary art and the Apulian territory, by developing a series of reflections on the places, landscapes, cultural and anthropological heritage of this region.

​

Nucré takes place in the municipality of Ceglie Messapica, in the province of Brindisi, drawing inspiration from the architectonic and natural suggestions of the places that host it. The event takes place in two characteristic locations, the Castello Ducale and the Trullo Rubina. The choice of these two sites was designed to create a dialectic between architectural spaces, shaped by history and the rural area, symbol of local traditions.

​

The title of the exhibition is a word composed of the dialect terms "nu" + "cré" representing a recurring local vernacular saying that generally means "tomorrow, an allusion and suggestion used to convey hope, promise, destiny.
