CANEMORTO
THE RADIANT VAN
Turin / Ljubljana / Venice / Turin – March-October 2026
On March 11, The Radiant Van – the new Luce d'Artista conceived by the iconic anonymous trio CANEMORTO – will set off from Turin on a five-day journey-performance: a van transformed into a mobile light installation that will accompany the artists to Ljubljana, launching a multi-phase project encompassing the production of the artwork, the creation of a short film, an exhibition, events in Venice during the 61st International Art Exhibition of the Biennale, participation in a festival in Ljubljana, and finally, the return home to Turin to find placement in the public space.
The project stems from the curatorial vision of Antonio Grulli, who has directed Luci d'Artista since its 26th edition, and his choice to invite CANEMORTO to create a new light artwork.
The project is made possible thanks to the support of the General Directorate for Contemporary Creativity of the Ministry of Culture, within the framework of the Italian Council program (14th edition, 2025), aimed at the international promotion of Italian contemporary art.
The new Luce d’Artista will enter the collection of the City of Turin starting from the 29th edition (2026–2027), part of the city’s public heritage managed by Fondazione Torino Musei since 2022.
