Thursday, July 9 • 6 PM - 7:30 PM. Italian American Museum, 151 Mulberry Street, New York, NY 10013. A presentation by Germana Valentini. In Sanguine Foedus. Nuovo Mondo (Bonded by Blood. New World) represents a monumental, 1,000-square-meter mural recently inaugurated at the Port of Naples, Italy. Created by Neapolitan artist Vittorio Valiante, the artwork honors the historical Italian emigration to the United States.
The mural spans the Molo San Vincenzo pier - the exact historical departure point where millions of Italians left in search of a better future and serves as a visual bridge between the cultures of Naples and New York City, connecting Italian heritage with the Italian-American experience.
