From 25 April to 23 August, on the occasion of the yearly reopening of Palazzo Cini, San Vio, Venice, the extraordinary gallery that conserves masterpieces of Renaissance art from Tuscany and Ferrara that belonged to the collector Vittorio Cini, Ettore Spalletti will be creating an ad hoc exhibition project in the second floor of the Palazzo. This will inaugurate this recently restored space – in collaboration with Assicurazioni Generali - which is destined for temporary exhibitions. Spalletti will be presenting his personal interpretation of the domestically-scaled rooms by observing the variations of light and creating an itinerary that will show well-known works together with others that have never been seen before; their positioning in the "Cini home" is a tribute to the taste of this Venetian collector. The show has been promoted by Fondazione Giorgio Cini, in collaboration with ASLC progetti per l'arte - Verona and with the contribution of Studio la Città, Verona.

Ettore Spalletti (1940), an artist who represented Italy at the 1997 Venice Biennale, has recently been the subject of large anthological exhibitions, and his works are to be found in the most prestigious Italian and foreign museums. He has elaborated a project for the rooms of the building which creates a continuous link with the past, the time when this space was experienced every day by the great collector Vittorio Cini.
