At the moment there are traffic jams reported between Latisana and Portogruaro in the direction of Venice
A serious accident occurred around 10,15:4 on the A452 motorway on the three-lane stretch between Latisana (Ud) and Portogruaro (Ve) in the direction of Venice
A light vehicle and two road maintenance vehicles were involved in the accident
one from Autostrade Alto Adriatico and one from an external company
at kilometre XNUMX just before the Portogruaro toll booth exit
a temporary construction site had been set up along lane three (i.e
the fastest) to fix the central barriers; the construction site was pre-signposted one kilometre before for those coming from Trieste and marked off by cones
The work was therefore being carried out according to safety criteria in a time slot in which
traffic was flowing normally along the route (Trieste-Venice)
then hit the central safety barrier several times – for reasons being investigated by the police – and went on to hit at high speed the maintenance vehicle of Autostrade Alto Adriatico – stopped inside the construction site – which
hit the vehicle of the external company that was carrying out the work
namely the occupants of the light vehicle that caused the accident
the staff of Autostrade Alto Adriatico and the mechanical rescue vehicles
At the moment there are queues reported between Latisana and Portogruaro in the direction of Venice

Concord National MuseumThe Roman urn found in a garden near Venice
A massive Roman urn once used to hold the ashes of the dead after cremation was recovered 50 years after a family in northern Italy found it on their property — because they never reported finding it
This massive limestone artifact was found in the small town of Portogruaro
dates back to sometime between the first century B.C.E
and features an inscription indicating that it was commissioned by Attius Lucullus
The discovery was first reported on June 14 by the Italian publication Finestre sull’Arte
following an investigation that took place between October 2023 and January 2024
The urn was originally found in the Portogruaro countryside
at a farmhouse that was acquired as part of an inheritance
The new owner was fully cooperative in the seizure
the urn was first found sometime around the late 1960s or early 1970s in a field near the cottage
it changed hands and came into the possession of another party
after which it was abandoned in the cottage’s garden until new owners moved in and reported it to the Padua Superintendency
Concord National MuseumThe small cavity carved into the top of the urn where ashes of the dead were once held
When the investigation concluded in January 2024
the Pordenone Public Prosecutor’s Office ordered the release of the urn to the state
It was then assigned to the Concordiese National Museum in Portogruaro
The urn’s inscription is only partially legible
but it does offer some insight into who originally commissioned this artifact and why
the urn’s text has been deciphered as follows:
From what historians have been able to glean thus far
the partially legible inscription suggests a dedication by a member of the prominent Atti family
and several other similar dedications have been found in ancient Altinum
The text indicates that Attius Lucullus was dedicating the urn to three male relatives: his father Lucius
though researchers noted that it’s difficult to read his name on the worn and abraded inscription
This funerary box is made of limestone and cut into a roughly square
there is a square cavity that would have held the cinerary remains
there would have been a lid to cover this cavity but it
are actively working to further investigate the urn
This includes both technical and art-historical examinations
which are set to be carried out by archaeological officials from the Superintendency of Padua and the Veneto Regional Museums Directorate
as well as professors from Ca’ Foscari University in Venice

Women’s History of Venice at the Bishop’s Palace in Portogruaro
which hosts the exhibition La dogaressa tra storia e mito
Venetian femininity from the Middle Ages to the 20th century
The Distretto Turistico Venezia Orientale is the proposing and organizing entity under the important Operating Protocol signed in June 2021 between the Fondazione Musei Civici Venezia - MUVE
the Municipality of Portogruaro and the Distretto itself
in order to carry out far-reaching cultural projects of proven scientific quality capable of enhancing the historical and cultural link between Greater Venice and Little Venice overlooking the banks of the Lemene River
The exhibition also enjoys the support of the Veneto Region under the Law on the Enhancement of Venetian Identity.The exhibition
Director of Museum Activities of the MUVE Foundation assisted by Pietroluigi Genovesi
is curated for MUVE by Daniele D’Anza and Luigi Zanini and for the Distretto Turistico Venezia Orientale by Pierpaola Mayer who is also responsible for technical direction
The exhibition is made possible thanks to the active participation of the Municipality of Portogruaro
Banca Prealpi SanBiagio and many important companies in the area
some of them in continuity others for the first time
who have long supported and believed in this cultural project
to which is added the important technical partnership with Italo S.p.A
Venetian femininity from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century proposes an exhibition itinerary that for the first time draws attention to and sheds light on the figure of the dogaressa
highlighting her role and importance at the time of the Serenissima
and whom today we can consider on a par with a..
The exhibition therefore aims to explore Venetian femininity through an anthology of significant episodes extrapolated from the lives of some of the most famous dogaresses
promoters of entrepreneurial projects and many other innovative and visionary initiatives that have come down to us
Five sections each occupy the five rooms of the Bishop’s Palace
titled Byzantine Opulence and Venetian Moroseness
tells how in the wake of the last foreign dogaressa
the Greek Theodora wife of Doge Domenico Selvo (1071-1084)
the refined art of perfumery was introduced in Venice
which then had an unparalleled impetus in the following centuries
reaching in the Renaissance the apex that led it to be recognized as the capital of perfume
Venetian Murano glass perfume holders from the 17th and 18th centuries and a selection of raw materials used in the perfumery art will be on display
allowing interaction with the public through an interesting olfactory and tactile sensory experience
This first room also reviews the dresses worn over the years by the dogaresses
starting with the morose one presented by Dogaressa Felicita Malipiero in Bellini’s painting
continuing with those highlighted in the reproductions engraved in some important printed volumes
Virtuous Patronages and Noble Erudition consolidates the authoritative
virtuous and positive role played by the dogaresses in contributing
to defend and increase local craft production
wife of Pasquale Malipiero (1457-1462) and descendant of one of the Republic’s most illustrious families
went down in history as patroness of printing and lace
it is due to her if Burano then became the world’s first lace center
It was she who gathered with her a large number of young women of the people and initiated them into the delicate work of weaving
which gave luster to the city for the exquisiteness of the product and means of livelihood to many people of the people
paintings and prints testifying to this highly original practice are displayed
wife of Lorenzo Tiepolo (1268-1275) went down in history for being the first dogaressa to make her solemn entrance into the Doge’s Palace
in a procession headed by the guilds of arts and crafts
Forty years after Zilia Dandolo Priuli’s triumph
another very famous and even more pompous coronation took place in Venice
The Golden Rose that was given to her on the occasion was upon her death assigned to the Treasure of St
Myths and Revivals of the Doge’s World
features Francesco Hayez ’s painting I due Foscari
which well illustrates the heartbreak experienced by Marina Nani
second wife of Doge Francesco Foscari (1423-1457)
for accepting gifts and deniers from gentlemen and even the Duke of Milan
such an operation was precluded: the crime of embezzlement was therefore configured
The reason of state prevailed over everything
To this affair Lord Byron dedicated the drama The Two Foscari
later performed in the theater by Giuseppe Verdi in 1944
the fifth section The Dogaresses of the 20th Century is reserved for theLast Dogaress
an appellation that was reserved for those women who distinguished themselves for the patronage reserved for the arts
and who brought prestige to Venice at a time when the Serenissima Republic had already fallen
This title was awarded to Peggy Guggenheim
and before her to Countess Anna Morosini (whose portrait by Lino Selvatico
as well as rulers throughout Europe: a woman with a fascinating and complex personality
It is also flanked by several Focuses of the Territory dedicated to other women
from Isabella da Passano Signora della Frattina (1542-1601) to Lucia Memmo (1770-1854) to Marta Marzotto (1931-2016)
The exhibition designed in a dynamic and interactive form in addition to important paintings of the Venetian school
including the portrait of Doge Alvise I Mocenigo by Jacopo Tintoretto from the Gallerie dell’Accademia in Venice
lace and other artifacts of Venetian material culture from the Venetian civic collections

Casa Russolo, a space dedicated to Luigi Russolo that will become a permanent gallery
2018.The artist signed the Manifesto of Futurist Painting together with Boccioni
and began his artistic activity with a series of engravings
The last ten years of the painter’s life were characterized by landscape and portrait painting
The new space dedicated to him will display the entire collection of original plates of all his etchings and many of his oil paintings owned by the Municipality of Portogruaro
as well as an extensive multimedia documentation of his production
Luigi Russolo also invented theIntonarumori
an instrument capable of modulating noises
of synthesizing them: an innovative technique for twentieth-century music
Locked within a legendary Milanese rivalry
AC Milan’s Lorenzo Buffon didn’t just duel for goalkeeping supremacy with Internazionale’s Giorgio Ghezzi
they also fought one another for the love and affection of Edy Campagnoli
the catwalk model turned television star who
was billed as the most famous woman in Italy
The cousin of Gianluigi Buffon’s grandfather
Lorenzo’s footballing exploits put the family name in lights long before the 1978 arrival into the world of his cousin twice removed
Buffon benefitted from the misfortune of his first club
and despite a comfortable mid-table finish
a restructuring of the lower divisions of the Italian league pyramid had cast the Serie C side into the newly created Promozione
a vast regionalised amateur system that initially equated to the fourth tier of the Italian club game but is now the sixth
Having turned to their youth ranks for fresh impetus in the 1948/49 season
the Venice-based club battled ferociously for an immediate return to the condensed Serie C
unlikely to have been risked in the higher division
was given his chance in the Promozione by Portogruaro – and it so very nearly paid off
it had been the goalkeeping of Buffon that had kept Portogruaro in contention for the title
conceding just 30 goals compared to the 51 that San Donà shipped
Ultimately it was the lack of a prolific striker that made the difference between success and failure
with Portogruaro finding the back of the net 34 times fewer than the champions
While the signing of Buffon flew under the radar, he was joined in that summer’s Milan intake by Swedish internationals Gunnar Gren and Nils Liedholm, who arrived on the back of the early promise shown by their compatriot Gunnar Nordahl
who had been signed the previous January and had plundered 16 goals in just 15 Serie A appearances during the back-end of the 1948/49 campaign
Read | Gunnar Nordahl: the first great calcio import
was as highly attuned to the potential of the teenage Buffon as it was to the polished products of Gren
an attacking triumvirate who would be given the eternal moniker of Gre-No-Li
This marked the point in time when Milan as a city began to stand toe-to-toe with the undeniable power-base of Italian football, Turin, partly through the return to prominence of both Milan and Inter – who combined would win six of the 10 Serie A titles handed out during the 1950s – and in part due to the tragic loss of the Grande Torino side that perished at Superga
by January 1950 Buffon had made his debut for Milan
Any projected contest for the goalkeeping position was a short-lived one
he was part of the Milan side that travelled to the Stadio Comunale for a historic encounter with Juventus
In the very first live televised Serie A game
on an afternoon when the Gre-No-Li combination accounted for five of the goals
While the 1949/50 Scudetto still went to Juventus
that cold February afternoon served notice to Turin that something special was stirring in Milan
A year later and Milan had ended their 44-year title drought
finding themselves in such a commanding position that they failed to obtain a victory in their final five games of the season
yet still clinched the Scudetto with a week to spare
Buffon’s rise to prominence with Milan had been meteoric
and Ghezzi – just seven months Buffon’s junior – wasn’t far behind him
joining Inter in the summer of 1951 after spells with Rimini in Serie C and Modena in Serie B
Watching on from the sidelines as the new season began
by October Ghezzi was the first-choice goalkeeper for the Nerazzurri
Both of Milan’s evolving megaliths now had a young
dynamic and supremely talented goalkeeper with which to build their ever-strengthening line-ups in front of
Juventus comfortably reclaimed the title in 1951/52
thanks to the goal-scoring exploits of not just the prolific Danish duo John Hansen and Karl Aage Hansen
but also domestic legend Giampiero Boniperti
The city of Milan struck back at Turin during the following five seasons
with Inter taking the Scudetto in back-to-back campaigns in 1952/53 and 1953/54
while Milan claimed the prize in 1954/55 and 1956/57
successes which sandwiched Fiorentina’s surprise but emphatic first Serie A title win
Read | The tragedy and triumph of Il Grande Torino
a World Cup-winning defender with Italy in 1938
but also in the battle for the heart of Campagnoli
who had come to widespread public attention thanks to an array of talents she had shown in opera
Ghezzi travelled to the 1954 World Cup finals in Switzerland
the Inter ‘keeper winning the competitive battle for the gloves to play the initial group games against the hosts in Lausanne and then Belgium in Lugano
A narrow loss to Switzerland and a 4-1 win over the Belgians meant that the Azzurri were faced with a playoff match in Basel – against the host nation once again – in which a place in the quarter-finals was the prize
With question-marks over Ghezzi’s mentality and a propensity to sometimes allow his emotions to get the better of him
it was instead Juve’s uncapped Giovanni Viola who kept goal for Italy in the match against the Swiss
In the wake of their disappointing early exit from the 1954 World Cup – and Milan winning Serie A in 1954/55 – Italy soon turned to Buffon
who reputedly never recovered from his rejection by Campagnoli.
Milan’s return to title-winning ways in 1955 also coincided with the birth of the European Cup
and in a titanic semi-final against Real Madrid in 1956
the first leg of which was played out at the Bernabéu in front of almost 130,000 spectators
Milan came up desperately short of reaching that very first European Cup final
losing out 5-4 on aggregate despite a stunning late fightback that had Madrid on the ropes
They might have come up short against Los Blancos but Milan had without doubt stamped their pedigree across the conciseness of the entire continent
Following Fiorentina’s exceptional Scudetto of 1955/56
conceding only 20 goals in a campaign they navigated with only one defeat
Milan again won the title the following year. Having dominated so much of the 1950s with Milan and Inter respectively
the winds of change were beginning to blow for both Buffon and Ghezzi by 1958.
Read | Sandro Mazzola: from tragedy to triumph
It was a poor league season for both Milan and Inter in 1957/58
while Juventus cruised through to win their first Scudetto in six years
This was compounded by Italy’s failure to qualify for the World Cup finals in Sweden
when the Azzurri slipped to defeat to Northern Ireland in Belfast in the group decider on a day when inconsistent club fortunes kept both Buffon and Ghezzi out of the line-up
The only bright spots for Buffon were Milan’s run to the final of the European Cup – where he was in imperious form during the semi-finals against a post-Munich Air Disaster Manchester United – and his upcoming marriage to Campagnoli.
Whether or not it was by design or coincidence
ahead of Buffon and Campagnoli’s impending nuptials
Ghezzi departed Inter and the city of Milan in the summer of 1958 to join Genoa
He seemed to be a man backing away from the scene of his greatest triumphs and tragedies
Any sense of victory Buffon might have felt over his great rival was only a fleeting one
Missing the 1958 European Cup final through injury
Milan again lost out narrowly to Real Madrid – 3-2 in extra time – in his absence
The next season brought Buffon and Milan another Serie A title but it would prove to be his last season with the Rossoneri
Suspicions over an escalating number of injuries prompted the Milan hierarchy to assess potential successors to Buffon
Milan looked toward Genoa and controversially signed Ghezzi
Buffon went in the opposite direction and suffered the ignominy of relegation at the end of the 1959/60 campaign
it had been a season where Buffon had sat out many games through injury
it didn’t stop Inter taking a chance on him
Inter and Milan had essentially traded their iconic goalkeepers
Despite Juventus taking the Scudetto in 1960/61
all eyes were locked upon the renewed rivalry in Milan between Buffon and Ghezzi
The first Milan derby of the season went the way of Buffon and Inter
while Ghezzi and Milan won the return fixture
With Buffon back to his very best and fully fit once again
the race was now on not only for the domestic honours but to keep goal for the Azzurri at their first World Cup for eight years
where he headed to Chile as captain of the Azzurri
Read | Gigi Riva and the unstoppable thunder of Serie A
Playing in Italy’s opening game against West Germany, Buffon kept a clean sheet in a goalless draw, but he was unfit to face the hosts in their second game. In what became known as The Battle of Santiago
Italy and Chile played out one of the most violent games of football the World Cup has ever known
in his one and only appearance for the Azzurri
Buffon could only watch on in horror as his nation fell to a stark and brutal 2-0 defeat
When Buffon returned to the team to face Switzerland
Italy were already out of the World Cup thanks to the result of the previous day’s game between Chile and West Germany
Neither Buffon or Ghezzi represented the Azzurri ever again
The 1962/63 season offered wonderful compensation for both players
Ghezzi helped Milan become the first Italian club to win the European Cup
both Buffon and Ghezzi had retired from the game
wound down his career as cover at Fiorentina
Ghezzi strived for more major honours with Milan
Buffon and Ghezzi seemed to operate in symbiosis
the increasing degrees of one-upmanship lifted them both to ever dizzying heights
who went by the nickname ‘Lorenzo il Magnifico’, was offset by Ghezzi
the temperamental artist with great reflexes
agility and a knack of reading the game perfectly
who was bestowed the moniker ‘Kamikaze’ due to his habit of racing from his area to face down on-rushing attackers
having been able to watch the entire career of his cousin’s grandson
while still maintaining his loyalty to Milan down the years
keeping a watchful eye on the emergence of Gianluigi Donnarumma
the next great iconic Italian goalkeeper-in-waiting
Before Gianluigi Buffon there had been another in the shape of Lorenzo
they will have their work cut out to come close to the achievements of their predecessors.

From the primordial broth to the Venetian province: this is also a possible path
with the Biennale (an institution that after the dark years following 1968 has become a real queen of international level)
or with Punta della Dogana (the power to enthrall with works of big dimensions exhibits in suitable spaces
often by authors who belong to the margins of the Western world): Veneto is also made up of private galleries that act in synergy with the market (see Studio La Città in Verona and Michela Rizzo
just to to give two examples) and by a myriad of cultural associations and men of good will acting in the streams of a microscopic and magmatic diffusion
we talk about his personal story and about the art system

with whom he established a confidential relationship
he landed on landscape representations with obvious philosophical and spiritual influences
his entry into the movement officially took place
and Russolo began to be present at all Futurist evenings and exhibitions
preferring to devote himself completely to music
in which he theorized the use of noises for musical purposes based on some experiments he used to devote himself to
thanks to the development of industrial society was characterized by an increasingly widespread use of machinery that punctuated daily days with their noises
not to mention then the invention of the automobile
explained precisely how up to that time men’s lives had been conducted “in silence or mostly in silence,” and how music
veering toward polyphony and seeking increasingly complex and dissonant structures and chords
Russolo invented new musical instruments that he built by his own hand
to which he gave the name Intonarumori: these were machines that could reproduce sounds of various kinds (bangs
rustles and so on) and modify them at will by turning a crank
Russolo often organized the “noisemaker concerts,” which
did not arouse much appreciation among the audience
who also protested vociferously by throwing objects at the musicians
He caused a sensation with the Gran concerto futurista per intonarumori in 1914 at the Teatro Dal Verme in Milan
in which he put together an orchestra for 18 intonarumori
encountering a rather violent reaction from the audience amid whistles
replicated the concert in Genoa and London
Like other exponents of Futurism, including Boccioni, Antonio Sant’Elia, and Mario Sironi
Russolo in 1917 became involved in wartime turmoil and enlisted in order to participate in World War I
He joined the Lombard Volunteer Cyclist Battalion and was seriously wounded at Malga Camerona on Mount Grappa
He returned home for treatment and spent nearly two years in various hospitals between Naples
participating in the Great National Futurist Exhibition in 1919
When Fascism began to gain an increasing foothold in Italian political life
Russolo decided not to join it and was thus excluded from the Futurists
he later reconnected through the intercession of Enrico Prampolini
His music was used for three Futurist films
in which he also appeared as a protagonist
and in the same year he married an elementary school teacher named Maria Zanovallo
He continued to exhibit his work throughout the 1920s
and in 1930 he joined the Cercle et Carré collective
Russolo befriended an Italian scholar of occult sciences in Paris
and through this acquaintance he became interested in Eastern philosophies and practiced yoga
three years after his friend Marinetti for whom he had delivered the eulogy
Luigi Russolo’s pictorial debut at the 1909 Famiglia Artistica Milanese exhibition consisted of a series of etchings heavily influenced by Symbolism
This is evidenced by the work Self-Portrait with Skulls (1909)
in which the painter is portrayed with a distraught expression while surrounded by a series of skulls looking at him
hinting at the artist’s awareness of human mortality and how life is full of futility
Present at the exhibition was Umberto Boccioni
who sensed Russolo’s talent and suggested to him a reflection on his own style and quest for modernity
The later works actually reflect the cues that emerged from his frequentation with Boccioni
and mostly consist of etchings with figures of his mother and sister
along with landscapes of industrial suburbs
Russolo’s name appeared shortly thereafter among the signatories of both the Manifesto of Futurist Painting and the Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting
drafted within a day of each other in 1910
the first theoretical and the second containing dictates on the style and technique to be followed
are regarded as milestones of Futurism in painting and some of the most decisive proclamations of modernity in art
the manifesto was based on the concepts of the rejection of “passatism” and the exaltation of modern novelties
He also signed the manifesto Contro Venezia Passatista drafted in the same year by Marinetti
participated in all the Futurist Evenings and exhibitions of the movement
It was precisely in 1910 that Russolo signed one of his most famous works, Perfume
The painting is the obvious result of extensive research aimed at engaging the viewer not only with sight
one has the sensation of perceiving the same perfume that intoxicates the protagonist
through the expedient of the wave created with filaments of color
A solution that can be found precisely in the early works of Boccioni and Balla
A very similar approach is found in Chioma
This work derives from some engravings dating back to 1906 in which Russolo had portrayed his 15-year-old sister Tina
and in the version made on canvas they permeate Symbolist elements
evident in the woman’s eyes from which beams of light come
while to render the waves of her hair he uses the now customary filaments of bright colors
Also from the same period are Periferia-lavoro (1910)
and the series of three large paintings Lampi (1910)
with its smoking smokestacks and street lamps artificially illuminating the scene
Revolt (1911) is another experimental painting by Russolo
in which the energy released by a group of people participating in a demonstration propagates throughout the city in the form of geometric lines resembling arrows
The same way of expressing the propagation and spreading of something powerful is found in The Music (1911)
the sound from a piano becomes a wave that reaches a series of faces reminiscent of theatrical masks
smiling but at the same time almost disturbing
Also recurring in this painting are round shapes and sinuous curves
A decidedly peculiar work is Ricordo di una notte (1912) in which Russolo has placed on the canvas a collage of images and situations experienced during a night
as if they were dreamlike flashes that call to mind sensations and emotions that resurface little by little
Russolo’s style is still very much influenced by symbolism and pointillism
the first experiments with the decomposition of planes and objects and their serial repetition begin to emerge
which return especially in Plastic Synthesis of the Movements of a Woman (1912-1913)
the movement mentioned in the title is proposed from different angles that are all brought back onto the canvas at the same time
in full alignment with the research on the same theme that Balla was devoting himself to
Another work very close to Balla’s researches is Solidity of Fog (1913)
in which the atmospheric phenomenon is presented as a solid body
in the form of a series of concentric circles that are traversed by the artificial light of an electric lamp present above
a group of people who are probably soldiers (the first one holds something that looks like a flag)
One of the paintings that encapsulatesalmost all of the Futurist ideals is certainly Dynamism of an Automobile (1912-1913)
Automobiles were highly extolled by Marinetti and his people as a symbol that fully embodies vital energy as well as irrationality and madness
The very Futurist Manifesto read “..
A racing automobile with its hood adorned with large snake-like tubes with explosive breath...a roaring automobile
which seems to run on machine gunfire is more beautiful than the Nike of Samothrace.” Russolo emphasizes the speed of the car through the use of very bright colors (red
yellow) and the usual “force lines,” similar to arrows
which were already present in La Rivolta and are present here as narrower on the left and wider on the right
to represent the victory of the car over air resistance
Also very close to Futurism and the analytical decomposition of forms is another work from 1912
Compenetration of Houses + Light + Sky in which an apparently simple urban landscape is decomposed into several planes that follow one after the other
interpenetrated by two intense beams of light
in addition to always being present in various national and international exhibitions
he published the pamphlet Contro tutti i ritorni in pittura
written in collaboration with Leonardo Dudreville
in open polemic with the return to order that was appearing more and more frequently in artistic circles
After an interlude in which he abandoned painting
Russolo returned to painting in the 1920s with Ritratto di fanciulla (1921) in which the much previously vituperated return to order is actually embraced
in a kind of “spiritual symbolism,” reflecting the philosophical studies and insights to which Russolo had approached
Also of the same type is La Femme aux Bulles de Savon (1929)
a work entitled Impressions of Bombardment
shrapnels and grenades that still recalls Futurist-like elements such as the dynamic and broken force lines that reproduce war actions
reinforced by the presence at the bottom of a group of soldiers taking cover behind a low wall
The 1938 work Aurora Boreale inaugurates the last phase of Russolo’s painting
characterized by full adherence to mystical and philosophical theories
in which landscape scenes built on horizontal planes and permeated by a sense of calm predominate
reinforced by the use of colors such as green
and a few splashes of orange or yellow to represent light
in which he returns to mention his great passion for music by inserting portraits of musicians within clouds above bright
Russolo’s works can be found in several major museums
In the artist’s hometown of Portogruaro is the painting Impressions of a bombing shrapnels and grenades (1926)
there is Solidity of Fog (1912) in the prestigious Peggy Guggenheim Collection
At MART - Museum of Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto
the famous painting Perfume (1910) is preserved
Self-Portrait with Skulls (1909) is kept in the Museo del Novecento in Milan
In our country it is also possible to see Lightning (1910) in the GNAM - National Gallery of Modern Art in Rome
it is possible to see two of Russolo’s works in Paris
namely Dynamism of an Automobile (1913) at the Centre Pompidou
in the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris
more specifically at the Muse?e de Grenoble is Plastic Synthesis of the Movements of a Woman (1912-13)
while in Holland is The Revolt (1911) at the Gemeentemuseum in The Hague
in London in the Estorick Collection of Modern Italian Art is La musica (1911)
A number of Russolo’s works are in private collections
