I go most of the art events within my reach. I do it for an online magazine that I publish along with my wife, also a photographer. The following is a short choice of exhibits I reviewed in 2019, mostly in Northern Italy or in bordering Switzerland.

Following the opening in Lugano, Switzerland, of the show “Hodler–Segantini–Giacometti – masterpiece from the Gottfried Keller Foundation”, I turned to view the beautiful building of the LAC Art Center. On the right of the window, Alberto Giacometti, Buste d’Annette, 1964. Bronze, 45 x 19 x 15 cm. Musée d’art et d’histoire, Genève, Zurich / Giacometti Stiftung

Cristina and I were in Venice to attend the 75. Mostra Internazionale d’Arte Cinematografica, a cultural extravaganza culminating with the assignment of the Leone d’Oro award, (Golden Lion), a trophy in the shape of the traditional lion of Saint Marc, appointed by an international jury of movie professionals. Renowned film director Guillermo del Toro was this year president of the panel.
