Florence attractions: Two unique projects to live art on autumn
From 3rd November 2012 to 5th January 2013 Polo Museale Fiorentino animates the cradle of renaissance with two special projects which will excite art’s lovers. Those activities involve visitors, adults and kids, and they will emphasize the huge artistic heritage of Florence.
“Visti da vicino” will take place at Uffizi Gallery, Palatina Gallery, Gallery of modern art, the “Museo degli Argenti” and in “Villa medicea of Petraia”: visitors will have the chance to take part to an in-depth examination about a piece by an expert. This project is focused on discovery and conversation.
Instead, during “Autunno ad Arte” Didactic Area will introduce deepening itineraries on the following locations: last supper of All Saint’s day, San Salvi, Saint Marco and Saint Apollonia; Villa Corsini, Perugino’s room in Santa Maria Maddalena dei Pazzi, Buontalenti cave and Boboli.
