On Saturday, October 10<span class=\"s21\">th<\/span>, the prize-giving evening of the two events, where art of photography and writing were brought together under a common denominator: coffee. A capti- vating sound, among psychedelic visions, by VeiveCura, opened the curtain; included in the top ten young emergent Italian bands. While the narrative voice of Alessandro Ro- mano carried the audience away into the universe of the awarded narrations. Even during this edition, Moak availed itself of two remarkable panels of judges. The 14th Caff\u00e8 Letterario edition was led by writer Mauro Covacich, who moved the audience with his way of facing delicate topics, such as maternity and sterility, in his last book \u201cLa Sposa\u201d (The Spouse), awarded with the second place of the Strega Prize 2015. Next to him were writers Gianluca Morozzi and Guido Conti, Enza Campino, responsible of the section \u201cword of the bookseller\u201d within Il Sole 24 Ore, and Elena Stancanelli, writer and nationally renowned journalist. Franco Ruta of the Antica Dolceria Bonajuto, great friend of well-known writer Antonio Maria Belgiorno from Modica,<\/p>\n<p>whom Modica has been paying homage to in the last five editions, was also invited on the stage. The ten choses stories will be published in the anthology \u201cStories about coffee\u201d. \u201cJust like writing, even photography \u2013 mentioned Master Denis Curti, president of the Fuori Fuoco panel, in his in- tervention \u2013 is able to narrate the world and build memory, showing us what we cannot perceive with the eyes\u201d. Next to him an excellent Fuori Fuoco panel of judges: photog- rapher of Contrasto Massimo Siragusa, Ginette Caron (graphic designer and Aiap member), Marco Lentini, Caff\u00e8 Moak graphic designer, and Tony Gentile (author of the fa- mous picture of Falcone-Borsellino) of the Reuters agency. The portfolios of the winning Fuori Fuoco works will be published on the national review \u201cIl Fotografo\u201d and spread by Caff\u00e8 Moak through exhibitions and ad campaigns all over the world.<\/p>\n<p>Guests of the evening also Andrea Bartoli and Florinda Saieva of\u00a0<b>Farm Cultural Park<\/b>. To celebrate the rela- tionship between Moak and Farm, and the \u201cInternational Children\u2019s Day\u201d, Best Friends was set up for the occasion, in cooperation with Fatboy: a family of giant poodles to promote a fund-raising collection the creation of a Farm Children\u2019s Museum.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-10000611 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img width=\"800\" height=\"532\" src=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/pubblico-450x299.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/seratamoak-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-10000611 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\"><img width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/calafiore-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"s22\"><strong>Caff\u00e8 Letterario Moak<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<i>Writing always means hiding something in such a way that it then is discovered<\/i>\u201d (Italo Calvino)<\/p>\n<p class=\"s25\"><span class=\"p\">1\u00b0 PLACE<img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-10000492 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/alessandro-di-salvo-premia-grandinetti.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/alessandro-di-salvo-premia-grandinetti.jpg 800w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/alessandro-di-salvo-premia-grandinetti-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/alessandro-di-salvo-premia-grandinetti-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thesignmoak.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/alessandro-di-salvo-premia-grandinetti-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"s22\"><strong>Come nascono gli imperi (How empires arise)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>by Ilaria Maria Calafiore<\/p>\n<p>Motivation:\u00a0<i>\u201cfor the author\u2019s ability to use the topic of coffee turning it into the story\u2019s narrative key.
