This small book/catalogue collects the biographies of the artists and musicians who were finalists in the Third Edition of the international prize that the Fondazione dedicates to the figure and work of Mario Merz, after whom it is named. The two sections of the Prize, music and the visual arts, saw the participation in this edition of artists Bertille Bak, Mircea Cantor, David Maljković, Maria Papadimitriou and Unknown Friends. The finalist composers were Annachiara Gedda, Mauro Lanza, Filippo Perocco, Robert HP Platz and Jay Schwartz. The book contains images of the works that were part of the finalists’ exhibition, held at the Fondazione Merz in Turin from 3 June to 6 October 2019 and of the concert performed on the same date at the Biblioteca Civica Musicale “Andrea Della Corte” - Villa della Tesoriera, Turin.
