EXHIBITIONS MART ROVERETO. ALL THE EVENTS FROM DIVISIONISM TO FUTURISM.

Exhibitions Mart Rovereto. 2016 in Trentino Alto-Adige is characterized by a series of cultural events which, until the end of the year, will describe the historical period in which modern painting in Italy was born.
In Rovereto, from the Mart Museum to the Casa d’Arte Futurista Depero, next months will be devoted to the Italian masters who lived between the late 19th century and the early 20th century, and who transformed art through Divisionism before and Futurism later.

The exhibition “I pittori della luce. Dal Divisionismo al Futurismo” (“Painters of light. From Divisionism to Futurism”) will be the most important event, but also the first leg of a narrative that will continue next winter with the exhibition dedicated to Boccioni, which will arrive directly from the Palazzo Reale (the Royal Palace) in Milan, and which I attended in advance, in order to talk about it in my blog.

In my post I will talk about the exhibitions that have been already planned, and, in addition, there will be a gift for you: you may spend three days in Trentino discovering contemporary art at the Mart Museum.

BLOGGER FACES: MY FACE ON EXHIBITION

BLOGGER FACES: MY FACE ON EXHIBITION

Blogger Faces. At the beginning of my adventure as a blogger, Tiziano M. Todi, gallerist of the Galleria Vittoria in Rome, sent me an e-mail and suggested that I should become the subject of a photo shoot by Elena Datrino, who was creating a collection of portraits of some Italian bloggers in order to arrange an exhibition.

I had never been in a photographic studio, and I had never had an aptitude for being the centre of attention, but, because I’m a curious person, I relaxed and I decided to be a model and a fashion blogger for a day.
The result? 

I joined in two photo shoots; I entered a catalogue; I involved other art bloggers in this adventure, my photos of my social profile are taken by Elena Datrino, and I participated in the first exhibition of Blogger Faces, and in the following ones, including the next edition that will take place in the province of Turin.
