Nadia Nespoli, Offerte di tempo
Artist Nadia Nespoli, in 2019, entrusted incarcerated men and women with skeins of cotton yarn and asked each to make a canvas, never unraveling it while doing so.

The relationship between Antonio Canova and Bologna began in 1779. In fact, on 12 October of that year, the artist arrived in the city on his way to Rome.
Canova was only twenty-two years old and he recorded his first stay in his travel diary, which today provides an interesting picture of the sculptor’s creative tastes, as well as precious glimpses of Bolognese life in those years.
Subsequently there will be other occasions to cement the relationship between Canova and Bologna. In this post I will tell you about this story of love and art.
