The dialogue between rural past and industrial present.

There are places that are not just meant to exist. They breathe, listen, and tell stories. Dolomiti Hub is one of these.

Born from the conversion of an industrial space on the outskirts of the Dolomiti Bellunesi, it is now a vibrant crossroads of relationships, ideas, and cultural and social projects.

 From here, in 2023, Barch Art was born, an artistic cycle-pedestrian path immersed in the Fonzaso countryside, where art, territory, and memory merge into a collective narrative.

The project has transformed the traditional Barch (ancient hay sheds) into a new form of land art, giving life to 14 poetic and visual installations that reinterpret the landscape and its stories. Barch Art is research, a bridge between agricultural civilization and industrial society, between silence and transformation, between identity and future.

Today, community art flourishes in the Barch Art Festival – The Different Beauties, a widespread cultural event that brings attention back to a landscape often forgotten: the one between the countryside and warehouses, between the old and the new, between nature and artifice.

 Between agricultural memory and productive heritage. A landscape that has too long remained on the margins of sight and narrative.

Four days of walks, exhibitions, sounds, and meetings invite us to slow down and observe from new angles.

To rediscover different beauties, yet profoundly connected: the past and the present, the artistic gesture and the agricultural one, the community that remembers and the one that produces.
