  • Palermo, Italy - 20 July, 2012: A red carpet inside Palazzo d'Orleans, the headquarters of the Presidency of the Sicilian Regional Assembly on 20 July, 2012, in Palermo, Italy...Mario Monti has expressed ?serious concerns? that Sicily's regional government is heading towards default and has asked its governor - who is under investigation for suspected links to the Mafia - to confirm his intention to resign. Sicily was among 23 Italian ?sub-sovereign entities? downgraded by Moody's rating agency on Monday, a development that has raised the possibility of a chain of defaults at the local level unless the central government intervenes. Sicily's debt was ?5.3bn at the end of 2011, according to Bloomberg. Mr Monti, Italy's technocratic prime minister, indicated in his statement on Tuesday that Rome would take action to bail out Sicily's debts. Sicily has long been identified as one of the most poorly managed of Italy's regions, with the public sector accounting for the bulk of the island's economy and jobs. Commentators call it ?Italy's Greece?.

  • TALAMONE, ITALY - 27 AUGUST 2019: (L-R) Sandra Galvis, a former Greenpeace activist and Paolo Fanciulli's fourth wife, is seen here together their assistant Nader on Paolo's fishing boat "Sirena" as they sail back to the harbour in Talamone, Italy, on August 27th 2019.<br />
<br />
In 2006, fisherman Paolo Fanciulli used government funds and the donations from his loyal excursion clients to fund a project in which they protected the local waters from trawling by dropping hundreds of concrete blocks around the seabed. But his true dream was to lay down works of art down on the sea floor off the coast of Tuscany. His underwater art dreams came true when the owner of a Carrara quarry, inspired by Mr. Fanciulli’s vision, donated a hundred marble blocks to the project.<br />
Mr. Fanciulli invited sculptors to work the marble and set up kickstarter accounts, boat tours and dinners to fund the project. The acclaimed British artist Emily Young carved a ten-ton “Weeping Guardian” face, which was lowered with other sculptures into the water in 2015.<br />
Since then, coral and plant life have covered the sculptures and helped bring back the fish. And Paolo the Fisherman is catching as many of them as he can.

In 2006, fisherman Paolo Fanciulli used government funds and the donations from his loyal excursion clients to fund a project in which they protected the local waters from trawling by dropping hundreds of concrete blocks around the seabed. But his true dream was to lay down works of art down on the sea floor off the coast of Tuscany. His underwater art dreams came true when the owner of a Carrara quarry, inspired by Mr. Fanciulli’s vision, donated a hundred marble blocks to the project.<br />
Mr. Fanciulli invited sculptors to work the marble and set up kickstarter accounts, boat tours and dinners to fund the project. The acclaimed British artist Emily Young carved a ten-ton “Weeping Guardian” face, which was lowered with other sculptures into the water in 2015.<br />

  • PALERMO - 26 DECEMBER 2015: Mimmo Cuticchio, a "puppeteer", tries out a "pupo" (puppet) for an upcoming performance in the "Teatro dei Pupi di Mimmo Cuticchio" (Mimmo Cuticchio's puppet theatre) in Palermo, Italy, on December 26th 2015.<br />
<br />
Mimmo Cuticchio is the direct heir of an age-old form of popular (street) theatre, the Teatro dell’Opera dei pupi siciliani, Sicilian Puppet Theatre, handed down to him by his father Giacomo. It is to Mimmo that we owe the relaunch of this type of theatre, which after the decline it experienced in the fifties and sixties, had become relegated mostly to the realm of folklore.<br />
<br />
In 1973 Cuticchio opened the Teatro dei Pupi Santa Rosalia in Palermo, and in 1977 he founded the Associazione Figli d’Arte Cuticchio, with the intention of safeguarding and handing down the artistic tradition of the Opera dei Pupi. In 2015 his collection of Sicilian Pupi which includes 19th and 20th Century marionettes, was purchased by the Fondazione Sicilia, and is now on show at the Palazzo Branciforte in Palermo. In 2001 UNESCO entered the Opera dei Pupi in the list of Proclaimed Masterpieces, and in 2008 it inscribed it on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.<br />
<br />
<br />
PALERMO - 26 DICEMBRE 2015: Il puparo Mimmo Cuticchio prova un puparo dietro le quinte del suo teatro dei pupi in via Bara all'Olivella a Palermo, il 26 dicembre 2015.<br />
<br />
Mimmo Cuticchio è un importante erede della tradizione dei cuntisti siciliani e dell'Opera dei Pupi, oggi iscritta tra i Patrimoni orali e immateriali dell'umanità dell'UNESCO. Figlio del noto puparo Giacomo Cuticchio, nel 1973 apre a Palermo il Teatro dei Pupi Santa Rosalia. Nel 1977 fonda l'Associazione figli d'Arte Cuticchio, che si prefigge di salvaguardare l'arte dell'Opera dei Pupi.
