Le Parco Sculture del Chianti, exposition permanente d’installations et sculptures contemporaines, nait en 2004. L’idée conductrice du Parc est l’intégration Art-Nature. Chaque artiste, après avoir visité le site, a choisi l’endroit qui lui convenait le mieux et a proposé un projet spécifique. Le mariage entre les œuvres et le bois, les couleurs, les sons et la lumière est parfaitement réussi. Loin de s’imposer à la nature, ici la main de l’homme a voulu l’intégrer et la mettre en évidence. Un amphithéâtre, à l’intérieur du Parc, propose en juillet-août un programme étoffé de concerts.
