Carretti as popular culture icons. Here are used to customize a bicycle.- We conceived this exhibition as a lens through which to share Sicily itself–the multilayered history of the island. The Sicilian cart provides such a wonderful perspective of Sicily’s history, and the many cultures that shaped what we now consider to be Sicilian. Marianna Gatto

We really wanted to show the contemporary popular culture connections and illustrate how the carretto is still a very important part of the Sicilian consciousness. Marianna Gatto
