Torrino Mezzocammino Joint Consortium

Piazza Andrea Pazienza, in the Torrino Mezzocammino district, is dedicated to the famous Italian cartoonist whose cartoons adorn the walls alongside those of other great cartoonists. To make the project unique, photographic murals of some of the most popular comic heroes of Tex Willer, Diabolik, Corto Maltese, Lupo Alberto, Cocco Bill, Pecos Bill, Dylan Dog, la Pimpa and the Winx have been installed. 24 panels (4.20 m x 3.60 m each) made of mosaic porcelain photo-ceramic tiles have been used to cover the walls of the piazza with the heroes.
The piazza is part of a neighbourhood entirely dedicated to one of the most popular graphic arts of the twentieth century.
