MODULATING WASTE. ENRICA BORGHI’S EXHIBITION

The exhibition Modulare lo scarto is the solo show by artist Enrica Borghi that aims to focus attention on the virtuous use of what society throws away and on the concept of waste.

Enrica Borghi has been working for years with the mosaic technique, using materials that are considered useless and that the artist rescues from a destiny that is already sealed and that wants them to be thrown away or in a landfill.

THE PAINTERS OF POMPEII ON SHOW IN BOLOGNA

An exhibition that focuses on the figures of the pictores, i.e. the artists, craftsmen and painters of Pompeii, who decorated the houses of Pompeii, Herculaneum and the Vesuvian area.
It sheds light on the techniques, tools, colours and models used by the artists who worked in one of the most lively and stimulating areas of the Roman Empire.

The important patrimony of images that the artists left us, the splendid frescoes in bright colours and the large-scale works that still amaze us today, reflect the tastes and values of a society and patrons with different sensibilities and still to be discovered.

THE ART OF RECYCLING IN THE WORKS OF ENRICA BORGHI

In Elena Borghi’s works, recycling becomes art thanks to the mosaic technique.
Her artistic research, in fact, is based on a virtuous use of materials that are actually fragments and waste elements.

THE MUST-SEE WORKS OF THE RODIN MUSEUM IN PARIS

The works of the Rodin Museum are housed in a building, located in the heart of Paris, which was Rodin’s home during the last years of his life.
Not always those who visit Paris for the first time think of going to see the Rodin Museum, but it is certainly an important stop to make because Rodin was the most important sculptor of the late 19th century and the forerunner of contemporary sculpture.
