THE WORKS OF THE FORTUNY MUSEUM, THE HOME OF A BRILLIANT ARTIST

What are the works in the Fortuny Museum and why should you visit this Venetian museum at least once in your life?
The gothic Venetian palace that was the home but also the workshop of Mariano Fortuny y Madrazo (Granada 1871, Venice 1949) and his wife Henriette Nigrin, was one of the focal points of intellectuals in the early 20th century.

In cosmopolitan and industrious Venice, it was almost a must for the refined elite of the time to visit Mariano Fortuny and his wife, and it is now important to visit these rooms to discover the importance of his creative work in the culture of the early 20th century.

CHAOS WITHIN. AN EXHIBITION ON FRIDA KAHLO IN TURIN

To understand Frida Kahlo it is necessary to enter her world, and an exhibition in Turin allows us to get to know the kaleidoscope of cultural and political fragments, of family roots (her mother of Spanish and Amerindian origins and her German father, the photographer Guillermo Kahlo Kaufmann, who was naturalised Mexican), of sufferings from illness and then from the serious accident that immobilised her when she was 18 in bed and from miscarriages, but also of love and passion, such as that for the Mexican artist and unfaithful husband Diego Rivera, as well as for other charismatic men, such as the Bolshevik revolutionary Lev Trockij.

Life of Escher, the artist of impossible universes

Tuesday October 25th, 2022 , Artists and Works

LIFE OF ESCHER, ARTIST OF IMPOSSIBLE UNIVERSES

Escher’s life has been as fascinating as his visionary works.
His impossible universes, made of optical illusions and real but seemingly virtual landscapes, have influenced the modern imagination and are still a source of inspiration for contemporary creatives.

Escher was born and died in Holland but for many years he lived in Rome and there are many exhibitions dedicated to his work (the last one in Florence).
Curious about everything, a brilliant experimenter and a unique artist in the artistic panorama of the 20th century, Escher is the creator of impossible and fantastic worlds that have anticipated the cinematic tales of our times.
