Abstract

The paper explores the accessibility of public art as a key condition for its cultural and social impact. Starting from Bologna’s Latin American mural and the long tradition of the Painted Wall Biennale in Dozza, it examines how conservation practices – ranging from removal and reconstruction to innovative educational workshops – shape both durability and community engagement. The experience suggests that sustainable strategies, based on continuous maintenance and shared responsibility, can enhance the visibility, respect, and economic value of public art.
