In the picturesque setting of Palazzo Guidobono in Tortona, there has been an exhibition of about forty large photographs representing dismantled industrial areas in Tortona and its whereabouts among which: Dellepiane, Orsi, Alfa, Liebig, Cmt, Fimu, Ilva. The aim was to highlight how these places are today. They are the signs of a flourishing past which should be retrieved, remembered and valorized not as the melancholic recollection of a distant past, but as the testimony of a working and commitment heritage permeating the community of Tortona in a lively evolutionary process.
