ARTEMISIA GENTILESCHI AND HER TIME

Artemisia Gentileschi (1593-1653) was a very talented woman, and a refined intellectual.
Her artistic career is as extraordinary as her life, and she is a symbol for those who think that talent and a strong personality can make the difference, and change the destiny that seems to be already planned.

The Palazzo Braschi Museum in Rome at narrates the story of Artemisia Gentileschi with an exhibition which I’ve already put on the list of the unmissable exhibitions in Rome but which is on view up to May 7^th 2017 to allow you to retrace the life of Artemisia and to admire her works.

FROM HAYEZ TO BOLDINI: FACES AND SOULS OF THE ITALIAN 19TH CENTURY PAINTING

From Hayez to Boldini. If I had to choose what paintings to bring with me to a desert island, I’d certainly choose a painting of the Italian 19^th century painting.
So, the exhibition scheduled in Brescia in order to celebrate the artistic season of the Italian 19^th century painting really suits me, and maybe you’ll like it, too.
100 masterpieces to celebrate a century of Italian art.

Corto circuito. Dialogo tra i secoli (Short circuit. A dialogue between the centuries): the new project of the Civic Museums in Venice

Can contemporary art dialogue with all the artistic production of previous centuries?
This is the question that the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia (Venice Civic Museums Foundation) has asked itself, and then it has decided to launch a project which is also a challenge: a series of appointments dedicated to modern and contemporary art held at the Centro Culturale Candiani in Mestre, Venice (the Candiani Cultural Centre), where some artworks belonging to the rich heritage of the city of Venice are on display.
