ICA Founders

The curation of the arts in Cambodia is essential for preserving the country's cultural heritage and supporting its development. The founders of Italian Cambodian Arts, Alessandro Mangano, Gabriele Faja, and Carlo Santoro, are committed to this effort by collaborating with local artists to create events, reviews, articles, and commentaries on the evolving art scene in the region. Their work provides artistic and educational resources while encouraging cross-cultural exchanges between Italy and Cambodia.

Italy’s cultural heritage, with its profound influence on Europe and the world, lends credibility and depth to these initiatives. By exploring and discussing these influences, the founders enrich artistic discourse and expand the material available to the public. Working within the framework of ItaCham, they align Italy’s cultural values with EuroCham’s growing business agenda in Cambodia and the region.

The core activities of Italian Cambodian Arts, including event series, articles, interviews, publications, artistic collaborations, and educational projects, aim to support the arts and foster dialogue between cultures. Under the guidance of its founders, the platform continues to build meaningful connections between Italy and Cambodia.
