A great Duilio Forte’s artwork (AtelierFORTE)
is permanently installed inside the VISAGI farm. The wooden work,
12 m high, is a big horse that guards the estate and is the twentieth
of the Sleipnir series. In December 2009, on the 200 years anniversary
of Darwin's birth, the italo-swedish artist launched the ArkiZoic movement.
The ArkiZoic manifesto traces the guidelines for an artistic style
based on Anemos, the spirit of life, that, since 450 million years,
characterizes unequivocally the earth planet. Watch

The VISAGI CORAGGIOSI Farm is situated in Loc. Valle Albertina within
the territory of Farnese (VT), a small town in the northern Lazio region
at an altitude of 360mt above sea level between Lazio and Tuscany. The
volcanic soil lies on the border with the Lamone Forest and the
Saturnia’s Thermal Baths. The VISAGI Farm’s soil is reserved to the cultivation
of the Cultivar Canino Olive Trees, a single-variety which was already
known to the Etruscans and whose characteristics are its thick canopy,
its rustic nature, and its easy adaptation to the terrain. Its fruit
is relatively small and resistant to the separation, it has a belated
ripening period, and the harvest usually takes place in November.

of Commerce of Viterbo.
