“Intrusioni” d’arte contemporanea in edifici di culto: la Calamita Cosmica presso l’ex chiesa della Santissima Trinità in Annunziata di Foligno.

Calamita Cosmica is the name that the artist Gino De Dominicis gave to one of his sculptures representing a gigantic skeleton. In 2001, after several relocations, the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Foligno bought the work of art and placed it into the old church of Santissima Trinità in Annunziata in Foligno.
