Amalart's role
concept and curation of the exhibition

For one day the Town Hall of Cerreto d'Asti becomes a museum gallery. On the occasion of the Festa delle Rose, the village's traditional festival, the rooms of the Town Hall welcome the women portrayed by Amedeo Modigliani: Jeanne Hébuterne in the large hat, the portraits with eyes without pupils, the Reclining Nude. Elongated, silent faces that reveal a way of looking at people even before painting them.

The route alternates lithographs certified by the Archives Légales Modigliani, backlit works and the Modigliani VR Experience, which allows visitors to step inside the paintings and discover their details. QR codes and texts in Braille make the visit accessible to all, and admission is free.

The choice of the Town Hall is not accidental. Bringing Modigliani to the most representative place in the village, on the day of its festival, means offering art to those who pass by, not only to those who look for it. It is an idea of culture that matters to Amalart: projects shaped around places and the communities that live in them.
