Guided tours in LIS

A symbol of a united and independent Italy, the Vittoriano soon became a key location in the nation’s collective imagination. But who is the architect who designed it? What models inspired it? Why are its marbles so blindingly white? These plus other questions and doubts will be resolved during an animated visit that explores the fascinating spaces of the monument, retracing its history and conducting an architectural and artistic investigation into its materials, geometries and volumes. Using a special teaching aid students will graphically process the iconic image of the Vittoriano using collage and drawing.

Porcelain, silverware, majolica, bronze statuettes, the Sala del Mappamondo, an armoury and even a sea monster: the spaces of the Museum of Palazzo Venezia, like many cabinets of curiosities, contain applied art objects from all over the world. A journey to discover that each collection is often the mirror of the collector's tastes but also of an era, a mentality and a common feeling, yesterday as today. Together we will create our own personal collections, where we will decide what to keep, what to add and how to set it up in the space.
