Friday 3 July 2026 – 7 PM Officine CAOS – Piazza Montale 18/a, Turin
Officine CAOS inaugurates Metropolitan Art 11, the eleventh edition of the multidisciplinary project that for over a decade has connected the Le Vallette district with the rest of the city through contemporary art, performance, workshops and participatory pathways. A programme that weaves together training, research, artistic production and actions across the territory, involving residents, young artists, schools, cultural presidi and social organisations of District 5.
The inauguration on Friday 3 July at 7 PM presents to the public the full programme of Metropolitan Art 11 and the editorial publication dedicated to the tenth edition, a testament to the work carried out over the years and to the project’s ability to generate social cohesion through the languages of contemporary art.

Metropolitan Art is a bridge between performing arts and visual arts: a journey that crosses museums, public spaces, residencies, schools and community places, transforming the city into a widespread laboratory. This year too, the project is led by Stalker Teatro, in collaboration with companies active at national level, and develops through workshops, performances, guided tours, training pathways and new artistic productions.
The opening evening will be a moment of encounter open to the public, featuring a presentation of the contents, dialogue with the artists and a convivial refreshment.
