CORFU. A new collaborative project between the Municipality of Corfu, the Inspectorate of Antiquites and the Marco Polo European group from Venice aimed at creating a strong Euro-Mediterranean network with Corfu playing a key role.

Corfu and Venice continue working together in the fields of sustainable tourism and cultural development with projects that contribute to the diversification of tourism through art and international relations. Thanks to the collaboration of the Venetian European Economic Interest Group and the Marco Polo System the project Fortresses that Unify has been set up and aims to create a strong Euro-Mediterranean fortress network.

"We visualize that which was built to provide protection against outside forces becoming a place where different worlds can meet and exchange experiences," says founder and coordinator of the Marco Polo System Pietrangelo Pettenò.

The photography exhibition has been to Ljubljana, Venice and Ferrara and in Corfu exhibits will be added to show the island΄s fortification heritage.

The exhibition will run from 17 November to 2 December at the Old Fortress.
