The Exhibition

"Biella Città Arcipelago - sustainability and creativity in the Biellese territory" is a permanent exhibition that highlights the sustainable organisations of the Biellese region and focuses on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda. It is a continuously updated device that was created with the aim of including new actors active on sustainability. 

It is a creative planning laboratory that invites organizations in the territory (associations, companies, schools, public institutions) to collaborate and actively participate in drafting a program of concrete actions aimed at the sustainable renaissance of the Biella region.

It takes place in the wake of the recognition of Biella Unesco Creative City whose official symbol is Michelangelo Pistoletto's Third Paradise representing the balanced connection between artifice and nature. It is developed with the contribution of the BIellezza Foundation and in connection with Local Institutions, as part of the initiatives of Biella Unesco Creative City and Festival Arcipelago.

Inspired by an urban center, it hosts thematic working tables, meetings, conferences, and public debates. All those interested in participating in the initiative are invited to contact us.

L'atlante dei paraventi

Each mapped case study is here represented through key images: more than 100 organisations committed to sustainability. They were interviewed by the young mappers, under the supervision of Cittadellarte, and expressed their opinions on the sustainable choices they have made or would like to make in the future, with reference to the 17 Sustainability Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda. Each of them filled in a short self-assessment form based on the following criteria:
• Social and environmental impact (e.g. emissions, waste, energy, land use);
• Innovativeness and originality;
• Replicability and exportability in other territories;
• Ability to generate sustainable economy and employment;
• Relationship with the territory and communities, and ability to network.
