Children forever!
July 9, 2020 to September 14, 2020
Childhood and illustration in early 20th century art.
It was held from July 9 to September 14, 2020 in the Salone Borghini
From Gian Burrasca to Rosai and Balla: the most famous works by artists of the early decades of the 20th century inspired by the world of children to the contemporary art of Sandra Tomboloni on display at the Museo degli Innocenti.
The exhibition, curated by Nadia Marchioni and Arabella Natalini, set up in the Salone Borghini of the Museo degli Innocenti, opened to visitors a door to art that draws from the universe of childhood, following the furrow traced by the activity that the Institute has been carrying out for 600 years, through a harmonious union between the beauty of the places that host it and the research, cultural and welcoming activities that characterize its mission.
The exhibition also marked the restart of the Museum's activities after the forced interruption in recent months.
Please note that access to the Museum is permitted with a face mask and regulated by the distancing measures in the national and regional museum regulations.
