(ANSA) – BARI, 26 FEB – The city of Bari also adheres to the digital campaign ‘Culture unites the world’, launched by the Ministry of Culture to remember that Italy repudiates war and expresses full solidarity with Ukraine. The image chosen by the councilor Ines Pierucci to convey the hashtags #cultureunitestheworld and #museumsagainstwar is that of the façade of the Margherita theater which, naturally leaning towards the sea, plastically represents the idea of ​​dialogue with the other shore of our Adriatic sea and of the opening to the other.

“Harmony, beauty – declares Ines Pierucci – are the antidote to violence and horror and at the same time the highest form of expression of human ingenuity, understandable in every place, at every latitude, and capable of resisting the outrage of time. Now that bombs and tanks have returned to the heart of Europe, forcing tens of thousands of innocent people to flee their homes and lives to face fear and the unknown, we must be firm in rejecting the logic of war and oppression and ready to offer our solidarity to the Ukrainian people. Many Ukrainian women live and work here in Bari, who in these hours are overwhelmed by anguish for the fate of their loved ones. We embrace all of them ideally. Bari is the city of San Nicola, a saint who unites and does not divide. Bari is a city of peace “. (HANDLE).
