(ANSA) - UDINE, 01 GIU - "Here we speak Italian, here we greet Romanly..." is the title of the exhibition featuring the history and memory of the fascist concentration camps of Gonars and Visco (Udine) in Italy and Rab in Croatia, set up in the Velarium of the di Toppo Wassermann Palace in Udine, which is open on weekdays until June 17. Organized by the Friulian university, the exhibit aims to "keep alive the past discrimination memories through displaying artistic expressions such as photographs and comics." The exhibition, curated by Nataša Mataušić, Saša Kralj, and Alice Straniero, is part of the European project "Meeting Memories: learning from the past to confront dehumanization today," in which the Friulian university is a partner. The exhibition includes a historical introduction to fascist camps and a section featuring the work of the project participants carried out during some workshops.

"The project aims to raise awareness of the history and memories of the persecutions of the 1930s and 1940s and enhance an understanding of the mechanisms of discrimination, which are also possible in today's societies," explained the coordinators for the University of Udine, Natka Badurina and Elisa Copetti, from the Department of Languages and Literatures, Communication, Education and Society.
