Show "SOTTO IL SEGNO DI VOLONTE'" From the
collections of the National Museum of Cinema "
Biblioteka Mario Gromo - Exhibition space, May 17th
- 15th September 2017 (except for August, when the Biblioteca will remain
closed from Monday 7th to Friday 25th), Turin, Italy.
It is dedicated to Gian Maria Volonté - a timeless,
restless, and rebellious and nonconforming actor - the homage set up in the new
exhibition spaces of the Biblioteca Mario Gromo of the National Museum of
Cinema, scheduled from Wednesday May 17 to Friday September 15 2017.
The exhibition SOTTO IL SEGNO DI VOLONTE was born from
the desire to celebrate one of the most important interpreters of Italian
cinema of all time through the precious material that the daughter of the
actor, Giovanna Gravina, recently donated to the National Museum of Cinema.
The tribute presents documents that testify in particular
to the last decades of Volonté's long career and are enriched with materials
from the collections of the Historical Archives, the Biblioteca Mario Gromo and
some particularly significant photographic shots of the National Cinema
Photographic Library.
The figure of Gian Maria Volonté, both for the roles he
played during his career and for the coherence he always pursued in her life
choices, belongs to the category of the most free and at the same time deployed
artists: he took part in controversial, uncomfortable and censored films,
telling in advance about the times not yet known truths, exposing themselves
first to criticism and retaliation.
The tribute to the great actor, which can be visited
until September 15, is shown with the intention of drawing a portrait of man
and artist through the materials his daughter Giovanna Gravina recently donated
to the National Museum of Cinema .
The exhibition is free of charge, subject to free
registration at the Biblioteca. You will be able to visit Monday to Friday from
9:00 a.m. to 5.30 p.m., except for August, when the Biblioteca will remain
closed from Monday the 7 to Friday the 25th.
Now if they want visitors from outside, they'd better mention town and country (it's Turin, Italy--I looked it up).
