Magister Raffaello has been selected by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs among the initiatives to be promoted by the global network of Italian Embassies, Consulates and Cultural Institutes. The participation in Ars Electronica Festival takes place in collaboration with the Italian Cultural Institute in Vienna.
