GLASS-ROOM – Arte in trasparenza turns a street-facing window of RISO – Museo regionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea di Palermo into an exhibition space for young artists trained at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Palermo. The project was proposed by CoopCulture together with the museum and the Academy and opened on 19 March 2026. Three installations follow one another: Staffage by Maria Tindara Azzaro, Teratoteca by Tony Lombardo and Oltre il piano reale by Aurora Amorelli, which ANSA reported as the third and final stage on 25 September 2026. Daniele Franzella takes part as the Academy's teacher of Sculpture and presented the project alongside the Academy's director, Umberto De Paola. Speaking to ANSA, he described it as an important test for students, who were able to work in a public space.
