Domenico Modugno was an artist from Polignano who marked the history of Italian music and beyond. It is said that the artist wrote his famous "Volare" thinking precisely of the cliffs of this splendid city where he was born in 1928. Polignano wanted to dedicate a statue to him, created by the Argentine sculptor Hermann Mejer, which depicts the artist with his arms wide open as if he wanted to embrace his hometown.
