The visit will allow visitors to get closer to the exhibition and the masterpieces on display, and to explore the choices made by the naval engineer, who established intense personal as well as professional relationships with many of the artists featured here. It will also provide an opportunity to reflect on the work of these key figures in Italian art during one of the darkest periods of our recent history. Their works reveal a commitment to civil and political issues, or at times a quiet ethical and existential struggle, shrouded in a prophetic role. The exhibition thus aims to bring to light the underlying stories of a civil and moral resistance that becomes apparent only by looking beyond what is immediately visible.
