CONGRESS SITE
Venue
The First World Congress of Environmental
and Resources Economists is being held at the
Giorgio Cini Foundation sited on the island
of San Giorgio Maggiore – so named to
distinguish it from another island in the
lagoon, San Giorgio in Alga – which was
originally an area of salt-works, mills and
flourishing orchards. In 790 it required its
name from a small church dedicated to St.
George. From the year 982, as a result of a
donation of the Doge Tribuno Memmo, it
became the seat of a Benedictine monastery,
the first abbot of which was the patrician
Giovanni Morosini. Over the centuries the
Abbey of St. George grew and prospered,
acquiring great prestige as a centre of spiritual
and cultural diffusion, and also as a privileged
site of meeting and refuge. This growing
prosperity was matched by the development
of its monumental buildings, enriched by
works of the greatest artists operating in
Venice. At the beginning of the sixteenth
century, the Gothic complex in the centre of
the island was superseded by a Renaissance
reconstruction, with the first Tuscan inspired
cloister, possibly Medicean.Michelozzian in
style (Cosimo de’ Medici, expelled from
Florence, took refuge on San Giorgio with his
court in 1433).
The present church and the refectory are the
work of the greatest architect of the Veneto
Renaissance, Andrea Palladio. The church,
begun in 1556 and completed at the beginning
of the next century after Palladio’s death, is
dedicated to St. George and St. Stephen (the
mortal remains of the later are persevered in
the church) and is built on a Latin cross plan,
with three aisles, a central dome and a large
chancel, in the centre of which rises
Vassilanchi’s high altar, with sculptures by
Gerilamo and Giuseppe Camapgna. Behind
the altar the great wooden choir stalls are
situated, illustrating the life of St. Benedict,
carved by the Flemish artist Alberto van den
Brulle and dated 1595.
The aisles contain sepulchral monuments, to
doges and other dignitaries, by such
distinguished sculptors as
Alessandro
Vittoria; the paintings includes masterpieces
like “The Last Supper” and “The Fall of
Manua” by Jacopo Tintoretto, and other
canvasses by Domenico Tintoretto, Jacopo
Bassano, Palma il Giovane and Sebastiano
Ricci.
In the upper chapel – where in 1799 the
Conclave was opened which, the following
year was to elect Pope Pius VII – hangs a
painting by Carpaccio representing St. George
slaying the dragon.
To the right of the square in front of the
church is the entrance to the two cloisters of
the ancient monastery. The second cloister,
the inner and more ancient one, give access to
the Sala del Capitolo (the Chapter House),
with a Lombardesque portal, and the
grandiose Palladian hall of the Refectory. This
last was the fruit of a collaboration with Paolo
Veronese who, in order to “open up” the end
wall, painted the huge canvas representing the
Wedding Feast at Cana, which was taken to
Paris during ther Napoleonic period to hang in
the Louvre; its place has been taken by a
painting of the Tintoretto school representing
the Marriage of the Virgin.
The Monumental staircase and the library are
the work of Baldassare Longhena. The library,
situated on the first floor, is furnished with
shelves and wooden statues by Franz Pauc
and decorated with a series of ceiling paintings
by two famous mannerists of the seventeenth
century, generally known as “i fratelli
lucchesini” (the brothers from Lucca).
The far wing of the cloister is closed by the
famous Dormitory, 128 metres length, built at
the end of the fifteenth century by Giovanni
Buora from Lugano and his son Andrea.

With the fall of the Serenissima, the island
began to suffer the devastation and pillage of
occupying forces, first during Napoleonic
period and later under the domination of the
Austrians. After the closure of the
Benedictine monastery, San Giorgio became a
free port and some warehouses were
constructed on the northern side, while the
dock was closed by a small jetty. After the
brief popular revolt against the Austrian in
1848 the island became the Austrian military
installations; and it maintained this function,
though with entirely different aims, even
when Venice became part of the Kingdom of
Italy in 1866.
The island was rescued from this period of
decline – which lasted more than a century –
and from its inevitable consequences thanks to
the Giorgio Cini Foundation, a private
institution created by Count Vittorio Cini in
memory of his son Giorgio, who died in an air
crash. The Foundation was recognised by a
decree dated 12th July 1951. The island, by
state concession, was entrusted to the
Foundation for the purpose of restoring the
historical and founding there its own social
and cultural institution. After the restoration
and adaptation of the historical buildings, the
Foundation set up on the island three
autonomous operational centres: the Naval
Training centre, the Arts and Crafts Centre
and the Centre of Culture and Civilisation.
The activity formerly under the aegis of the
Centre of Culture and Civilisation are now
organised by the Foundation itself, which is
directly responsible for all the cultural
activities of San Giorgio.
These activities draw strength from the
Foundation’s long experience of cultural
work, devoted both to historical studies on
Venetian civilisation and to themes and
problems of major contemporary relevance or
urgency.
In the first place, there is the study and
research work carried out by
the
Foundation’s Institutes, which are structured
along the lines of what in Britain and America
are termed “advanced study institutes”: the
Institute for the History of Art; the Institute
of the History of the Venetian State and
Society; the Institute of Literature, Theatre
and Opera; the Institute for Music; the
“Venice and the East” Institute. To these
must be added a sixth specifically devoted to
the study and evaluation of the works of the
great Venetian composer Antonio Vivaldi. To
carry out their institutional tasks, the
Institutes make use of their own specialised
libraries
and
photo-collections,
their
documentary and musical archives, the
Rolandi Collection of opera Libretti – the
most important in the Europe and perhaps in
the world – and a fully equipped microfilm
library which above all conserves documents
regarding the political and cultural history of
the Serenissima. The Institutes promote
directly or indirectly various research
initiatives: they either organise studyencounters and seminars; similarly, they
promote publications and artistic or
documentary
exhibitions
and
musical
performances.
The Foundation owns many outstanding
collections, which in themselves constitute a
valuable instrument of research: among these
are the collections of drawings (principally of
the Venetian and Emilian
school), of
illuminated manuscripts from the 12th to the
16th century, of incunabula and illustrated
books of the Renaissance, of manuscripts and
documentary or historical archives: all
research material that supplements and
enriches the library collection of San Giorgio.
In addition to the scientific work of the
Institutes, the Foundation organises courses,
at a post-graduate level, and regular
conferences and study-seminars on themes of
historical or scientific character also, as has
been mentioned, on topics of social or cultural
importance or particular relevance to the day.
The Giorgio Cini Foundation also
welcomes to the island of San Giorgio
Maggiore study encounters and conferences
organised by other distinguished scientific and
3
cultural institutions, both Italian and foreign,
and occasionally – in a spirit of public service
towards the city, the nation and those “supernational” Institutions (UNESCO, EEC, UNO,
etc.) of which Italy is a member – hosts other
initiatives of a different nature which are
nonetheless of exceptional importance on the
general area of international relations.
A final mention must be made of the presence
on the island of the Benedictine Fathers of the
reconstituted Abbey of St. George. This more
than a thousand years old presence – which is
culturally active above all in the fields of the
liturgy and Gregorian chant – should not be
understood as an illustrious memento of a
glorious tradition: it serves as a constant
reminder of those goals of Christian
spiritually that lie at the very heart of the
renewed social and cultural life of San Giorgio.

SOCIAL EVENTS
Wednesday, June 24
Welcome Cocktail and Museum Visit
A Welcome Cocktail is organised at the Fondazione Giorgio Cini on Wednesday June 24th from
16.00 to 18.00. Participants who will come to the Fondazione Cini for registration and the welcome
cocktail will then be taken to Palazzo Grassi where a visit to the exhibition Picasso 1917-1924 is
kindly offered by the Palazzo Grassi S.p.a. The Congress boat will be available to transfer
participants directly from the Fondazione Cini to the Picasso Exhibition. The visit will last from
18.00 to 20.30. Participants can also go directly to Palazzo Grassi. Please ask for the visit reserved
to participants to the World Congress of Environmental Economists. Palazzo Grassi is located in
front of Ca’ Foscari and close to the Accademia Bridge (see map), is one of the most beautiful
palaces on the Grand Canal, and hosts every year some of the most important exhibitions that are
shown in Venice.
frequented while in Italy. There is also all the
various material relating to that trip which he
himself conserved, together with the work
that he did during the weeks he spent not only
in Rome but also in Naples and Pompeii.
Then comes the area dedicated to Parade, with
several rooms containing the studies and
sketches made for that project.
The pictures on display exhibit the presence
of both a cubist and classical style - as well as
offering an illustration of life in Rome at the
time. In future years the artist's work would
continue to reveal the effect of his Italian visit
- as we can see from the Neapolitan motifs
present in various works produced in 1919.
Special attention is dedicated to the world of
the theatre, which Picasso frequented a great
deal during his first Italian visit. The works in
the following rooms portray musicians,
dancers and - above all - Olga Kokhlova, who
would soon become his wife.
Picasso's work on the ballet Pulcinella is of
particular significance - and the visitor will be
presented with an entire gallery of characters
from the Commedia dell'Arte.
The exhibition also includes more private
images of Picasso, who during this period
became a father for the first time. The birth of
PICASSO 1917-1924
THE EXHIBITION LAYOUT
The exhibition offers the visitor a chance to
appreciate an important, fruitful and
innovative period in Picasso's career. It brings
out the extent to which he was a
"Mediterranean painter", and presents works
that show the full range of his artistic
research, revealing his great curiosity and
intensity - as well as his extraordinary
versatility of approach.
The exhibition opens with the large stage
curtain for Parade, displayed in the groundfloor hall of the Palazzo. The theatrical setting
for this work includes mannequins wearing the
various costumes that Picasso designed for
the ballet.
The first rooms of the show contain works
dedicated to acrobats, tumblers, and the figure
of Harlequin in particular; comprising pieces
from various periods in the artist's career, this
section shows his deep interest in the stock
characters of Commedia dell'Arte and in
theatre in general. The works also document
the return to classicism that coincided with
Picasso's first visit to Italy.
The 1917 visit to Rome is illustrated by the
large portraits Picasso did of the people he
4
Paulo, in 1921, undoubtedly marked a turningpoint in his life.
Numerous portraits are dedicated to his wife
and son, and there are also several paintings
and works depicting Picasso's family life.
The theme of fountains and springs is covered
in a special section, revealing the full extent of
the classical - and especially Italian references behind this motif. The works of
this "return to Classicism" include Picasso's
large Classical figures, along with his pictures
of centaurs and other mythological characters.
The rooms containing the preparatory
material for the Mercure stage curtain mark a
return to the world of theatre.
The link with the Parade curtain which opens
the show is made explicit by the return to
various themes - including that of Harlequin,
who reappears in both classical and cubist
form.
After a series of female portraits, the
exhibition comes to an end with The Pipes of
Pan, a masterpiece which in some ways sums
up all the themes covered in the previous
twenty-five rooms.
was part of the inheritance bequeathed by
Faustina Michiel to her heirs in 1730.
December 16th, 1758
When Angelo Grassi dies, Pietro Gradenigo, a
Venetian diarist and nobleman, refers to him
as the person who has commissioned the
"new and beautiful palazzo on the Grand
Canal at San Samuele". The building is
inherited by Angelo's sons Bortolo, Paolo and
Zuanne.
May 9th, 1772
Paolo Grassi dies in Palazzo Grassi, his
"modern continuation". The next phase of the
building can now be considered complete,
even though the decorative additions have yet
to be finished. These will be completed more
or less in 1781, when another of the brothers,
Bortolo, dies.
May 26th, 1840
The building is sold for 140,000 Austrian Lire
to Spiridione Papadopoli, who buys it on
behalf of the ewly-founded Società Veneta
Commerciale. The palazzo becomes the
Società's main headquarters, and the building
is therefore modified to house offices and two
separate apartments for the custodian and
porter. The purchase agreement states that the
building was also partially let out to a certain
O'Conner and Contro, while the two brothers
Angelo and Domenico reserved the right to
live on the mezzanine and third floors until
their death. Angelo moves to the country
where he dies in 1842, while Domenico dies
seven years later in 1849. Domenico is the last
of the "San Samuele Grassi family line".
May 3rd, 1844
The palazzo is sold yet again, this time for
176,000 Austrian Lire to the opera singer
Angelo Poggi who obviously sees the building
as an investment. The purchase agreement
allows the Società Veneta Commerciale to
stay in the building until November 15th,
1845.
November 7th, 1845
Angelo Poggi sells the building for 240,000
Austrian Lire to the Austrian painter
Giuseppe Augusto Schöfft. The building is
PALAZZO GRASSI
May 12th, 1732
Two brothers, Giovanni and Angelo Grassi,
buy "houses and buildings situated on the San
Samuele contrada, the campo, the Grand Canal
and the rear calle which leads to the
aforementioned Grand Canal". The above have
been bought from Antonio and Bartolomio
Trivellini for 22,000 Ducats. The vendors
reserve the right to maintain control over a
small house belonging to the allotment, which
they then rent for 14 Ducats.
September 26th, 1736
The Grassi family extend their allotment by
buying a house belonging to the Michiel
family. The total cost is 2,712 Ducats, and the
house is actually part of an allotment which
includes not only the owner's residence but
other smaller houses as well. All of the above

then turned into a hotel (initially known as
Albergo dell'Imperatore d'Austria, and then as
Hôtel de la Ville), run by Schöfft's wife and
then by Augusto Barbesi.
February 14th, 1857
The building is bought by Baron Semeone De
Sina who, with the aim of radically
restructuring it, hires the engineers Kreuter
and Fischler to plan the building's
"modernisation" as well as a garden along the
Calle delle Carrozze area, which is already
occupied by houses and separated from the
rear of Palazzo Grassi by Calle Grassi. The
project, as can be seen from sketches
undertaken in the 1860s, is intended to
radically modify the structure of the building.
The central, two-storey reception room is
divided into two rooms with a lower panelled
ceiling, the Grand Canal entrance is made
"heavier" with the addition of four new
columns and many of the rooms are
transformed and their decor completely
destroyed. Once the rooms have been altered,
the original decor of the reception room
destroyed and the frescoes along the stairwell
restored, the palazzo loses much of its original
form and becomes a magniloquent "container"
for modern taste and style, perfectly in
keeping with the new times.
1908
Giovanni Stucky, who has been dubbed
"cavaliere d'industria", buys Palazzo Grassi
from Baron De Sina's heirs. His son,
Giancarlo, attempts to restore at least some of
the original 18th century decor. The fresco
originally adorning the reception room ceiling
is restored (it had been completely modified
by De Sina) and moved to the staircase area
(which contained the 19th-century "Unione di
Venezia con l'Austria Ungheria"). He enriches
the furnishings in some of the rooms, adding
18th-century paintings and works by
Francesco Guardi and Gaspare Dizioni. This
new restoration is brought to completion with
the addition of a lift, a heating system and
electrical lighting. When the Stucky family's
fortunes take a change for the worst, Palazzo
Grassi is sold to a subsidiary company of the
Cini group.
December 4th, 1949
Palazzo Grassi is sold to the SIV (Società
Immobiliare Veneta) company, whose
president, Franco Marinotti, wants to use the
building as the general headquarters for the
Centro Internazionale delle Arti e del
Costume. The building is therefore further
modified and restored. The rooms are "given
back their pure structural lines, thus obtaining
rooms which are more suitable for exhibitions,
conferences, studios and offices", and the
internal courtyard is closed in with a Murano
glass covering. The restoration, which is
quickly undertaken so that the inauguration of
the Centro can take place on August 25th
1951, also includes a 600-seat theatre
(designed by the engineer Giovanni Sicher)
built in the garden. The theatre is later given a
removable roof (projected by the architect
Cesare Pea in 1961).
1978 -1984
The building goes from one owner to another
(even though the Centro di Cultura has a freeloan agreement with the various proprietors),
until, on October 10th 1984, it is purchased
by Palazzo Grassi S.p.A., a subsidiary of the
Fiat group, whose aims are purely artistic,
cultural and scientific.
March 11th, 1985
Palazzo Grassi is once again modified in order
to house new exhibitions. The restoration is
undertaken by the architects Gae Aulenti and
Antonio
Foscari. FIATENGINEERING
S.p.A. are the General Contractors for the
operation.
THE 1985 RESTORATION
Anyone who saw the layout Palazzo Grassi
was given after its 1950s restoration knows
that the project was based on a taste which
presumed
(sometimes
with
curious
ingenuousness, at others with a touch of
astute cunning) to re-evoke 18th-century
4
fashion and, more generally, to create a stately
atmosphere. At the time, this seemed justified
by the decision to turn the palazzo into the
main headquarters and exhibition site for the
Centro Internazionale delle Arti e del
Costume. However, the whole enterprise was
rather questionable. And not only because it
ignored those modern cultural aspects that,
even in Venice at that time, might have
suggested different solutions, but also because
this "counterfeit antique" style was in
contradiction
with
the
19th-century
restoration of the palazzo which, with its
Austro-Hungarian inflexions, had already
established a problematic relationship
between the original architectural structure
and the interior decorative apparatus.
What is more, the restoration undertaken in
the 1950s was a rather slap-dash affair, as
could be seen, until a few months ago, by the
way in which the decor had deteriorated. This
was mainly, though not exclusively, due to the
fact that the decorative apparatus had been
overwhelmed, as it were, absorbed and
partially annulled by
a series of
transformations and different lay-outs
designed to repeatedly adapt the building to
different needs and requirements.
The palazzo, which has a well-ordered and
spacious layout, now seemed disordered and
even gloomy. A visitor could not easily
distinguish what was actually part of the
original palazzo (whether it was the 18thcentury set-up of the building or the 19thcentury decor) and what had been added over
the last few decades.
taken over from the Centro Internazionale
delle Arti e del Costume, was by no means
less intense than the preceding one. A
characteristic trait of this period, however,
was that apart from large exhibitions, the
palazzo was also used for a series of
conferences and a wide variety of different
events.
But there were reasons other than those
connected with changes in taste or the need
for repairs which made a new, radical
restoration indispensable. Minimum safety
requirements (the electrical wiring, the heating
and plumbing), for example, were not being
met. And more importantly, the safety
requirements for places open to the public and
particularly those used for public exhibitions
were not being respected.
Palazzo Grassi has now, after its recent
restoration, been given a new order and a new
luminosity, a luminosity that that been
incremented thanks to the light which is
allowed to enter the building from the glass
covering in the courtyard, where the metallic
structures (the reticular beams that had been
added during the previous restoration) were
covered so that they could partially assume
the function of bris-soleil blades.
But the building has been given a new limpid
quality in its exterior as well. The facade
giving onto the Grand Canal (which was
washed clean) now once again displays the
colours of that white stone that was shipped
to Venice from Istria. The side giving onto the
campo (where the grey of the cement plaster
was removed) now displays its original light
"marmorino" surface (which is a mixture of
lime and marble dust).
The period during which the palazzo was
given over to the Centro di Cultura, which had

Classic Music Concert
Congress participants and their accompanying persons are invited to attend a fine classic music
concert in the magnificent Scuola Grande di San Rocco, the School where Tintoretto worked for
many years and where his main paintings are shown. The Scuola Grande di San Rocco is located
nearby the Frari’s Church (S.Tomà steamer N.1 stop), h. 21.30. The Concert will be executed by
L’Offerta Musicale chamber orchestra.

headquarter at the beginning of the16th
century. It is the only brotherhood that
survived the Napoleonic edicts and has
continued its activity without interruptions. It
now counts about 350 Brothers (women
among them) who meet in a General Council
once a year under the guide of a Chancellery
including the Guardian Grando, the Vicario,
the Guardian da Matin, the Chancellor and
other eleven members.
The Archbrotherhood's headquarters are the
Scuola Grande, a monumental building
dating back to the 16th century. The Church,
built at the end of the 15th century, was
reconstructed in the 18th
century, and the
Scoletta, which was the first headquarter of
the Brotherhood, was built at the
same
time as the church, and is now open only in
special occasions.
The building was started in 1515 by
Bartolomeo Bon, to whom we owe the ground
floor. His work was continued by Sante
Lombardo and after 1527 by Antonio
SCUOLA GRANDE DI SAN ROCCO
The Scuole, in Venice, were lay brotherhoods
under the patronage of a Saint. They strove
towards penitence and devotion, supported
the interests of artists or foreign workers who
needed assistance to find a job. In the year
1400 the Scuole were divided into Scuole
Grandi (San Rocco, Santa Maria della Carità,
San Marco, San Teodoro, San Giovanni
Evangelista and La Misericordia) and the
Scuole Minori, totalling about four hundred.
Only few of them had a church and
headquarters of their own. Some Scuole still
exist nowadays.
The Archbrotherhood of the Scuola Grande
di San Rocco, recognized by the Council of
the Ten of the Republic of Venice in 1478
with its headquarter in San Giuliano has
subsequently incorporated with another
similar association near the Church of the
Frati Minori (Frari). It first moved to San
Silvestro and then found its new definitive

Scarpagnino who finished the upper part and
harmonised the facade with double rows of
pillars. After his death in 1549, the finishing
details were contributed by Giangiacomo dei
Grigi. The interior, two great halls plus a
smaller one
on the first floor called
'dell'Albergo', represented
the
typical
structure of a Venetian Scuola, reserved for
the Brotherhood and religious assemblies. The
walls of these halls and the ceilings of the
upper floor are covered with Tintoretto
paintings (1518-1594). Brother at the Scuola,
Tintoretto decorated the Albergo's hall from
1564 to 1567, went on with the Upper Hall
from 1575 to 1581 and ended his work with
the Lower Hall from 1583 to 1587. Some
other paintings by Tiziano, Tiepolo,
Giorgione and Tintoretto are displayed on
easels and are also noteworthy. Dossals by
Giovanni Marchiori (1743) and a wooden
sculpture by Francesco Pianta (17th century)
can also be admired. On the great staircase,
there are paintings by Pietro Negri (1673) and
Antonio Zanchi (1666).
trumpet player G. Cassone, the horn player
G. Corti and the harpist S. Mildonian.
The Orchestra was born with the help of the
Venetian Committee of the Società Dante
Aligheri and has collaborated, ever since its
establishment, with the most important local
institutions (City Council and University).
During its activity, L’Offerta Musicale has
performed concerts for more than one hundred
Italian and international societies and concert
boards, always earning a great success among
the public and the critics. It has also obtained
the blessing of two important musical critics,
Giuseppe Pugliese and Mario Messinis. It has
successfully gone on several tournées being
among the guests of famous national and
world festivals: in France, Spain (International
Festival of Ubeda), Malta, Tunisia (Medina
Festival, El Djem Festival), Austria, Germany
(European Festival of Benediktbeurer),
Belgium
(Van
Vlaanderen
Festival),
Luxembourg, Croatia, Hungary, Switzerland
(during one of them it collaborated with
Gstaad Y. Menuhin Academy) and in Italy
(Vercelli Quartet Society Festival, Festival of
Pievi in Tuscany, Voghera Ultrapadum
Festival and others), participating also in
several Amici della Musica's (Friends of
Music) concerts seasons and working with
City Councils, Province Boards, Touristic
Agencies, Embassies and Italian Culture
Institutions abroad.
The Chamber Orchestra's repertory is very
extensive and varied; in fact, even if the main
part of its works are Baroque and XVIII
century concerts, it includes contemporary
music. It has realized two CD's for Nuova
Era, the first one is the whole corpus of the
Flute Concerts by A. Vivaldi, together with
the flutist Marzio Conti, and the other one
collects all B. Galuppi's Concerts for Four
Players.
L’Offerta Musicale has produced a double
CD for Bongiovanni – together with the oboe
players Alessandro Baccini and Francesco di
Rosa – which deals with Albinoni's (op. 7 and
9) Solo Oboe and Two Oboes Concerts.
L’OFFERTA MUSICALE
L’Offerta Musicale chamber orchestra is a
group of young Venetian professionals,
chosen among the best graduates of the last
decade. Many of them have already
distinguished themselves by winning Italian
and international competitions.
L’Offerta Musicale can be considered the
Venice Chamber Orchestra, being present in
the city with two important concert seasons spring and autumn - in which internationally
famous soloists are playing. Among them: the
violinists A. Lysy, M. Sirbu, G. Carmignola,
D. Schwarzberg, D.
Nordio, the viola
player M. Paris, the cellist M. Cazacu, the
flutists M. Conti, R. Greiss, M. Mercelli, the
harpsichord player C. Meyer, D. Roi, the
pianists P. De Maria, E. Perez de Guzman,
the organists W. Dalla Vecchia, F. Finotti, the

Social Dinner
The Social Dinner will take place at Palazzo Pisani Moretta at h. 21.00. It is the occasion to provide
Congress participants and their accompanying persons with a taste of 17th century Venetian life.
Palazzo Pisani Moretta is another magnificent palace on the Grand Canal and is decorated by
paintings of the most famous Venetian Artists. It can easily be reached from the steamer N.1 stops
S.Tomà and S. Silvestro (see map). Formal dressing is not required, but a little bit of consistency
with the history and beauty of Palazzo Pisani Moretta would be appreciated.
inside is the work of the most outsdanding
Venetian artists of the XVIIIth Century as
Giambattista Tiepolo, Jacopo Guarana,
Gaspare Diziani and Giuseppe Angeli.
The magnificent staircase rising in double
ramps to the top floor of the Palace, also
belongs to the Baroque period and was built
to replace the old Gothic outer steps.
Thanks to the restoration work of the last
decade, the re-establishment of its collections
and the recovery of its original antique
furnishings, the Pisani Palace, abandoned for
various reasons at the end of the last Century,
has regained some of the splendour which in
past centuries was admired by famous visitors
among whom Tzar Paul of Russia and
Joséphine Bonapart.
PALAZZO PISANI MORETTA
The Palace, ever since the property of the
Pisani family, was erected in the second half
of the XVth Century at one of the most
attractive points along the Grand Canal, half
way between the Bridge of Rialto and Ca’
Foscari’s vault.
Built in the Gothic floreal style, it underwent
several expansions and restoration began in
the early XVIth Century and finished in the
mid
XVIIIth Century when the last
important works which gave it its present day
appearance were completed.
The architectural importance of the façade is
due to the splendid Gothic mullioned
windows of the two main floors. The
wonderfully elaborate Baroque decoration

NEXT YEAR’S CONGRESS
AERE
In June, 1999, the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists will hold a two-day
workshop on "Market-Based Instruments for Environmental Protection" at Harvard University in
Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA.
The workshop, chaired by Robert Stavins, at Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government,
will provide an opportunity for scholars and practitioners to engage one another in a series of
sessions that reflect both the scope and the depth of this active and important area of research.
EAERE
The EAERE Ninth Annual Conference will be held at the University of Oslo, Oslo, Norway, 2527th June 1999.
The two and a half day programme will consist of plenary sessions with keynote speakers and
parallel sessions with contributed papers in areas of interest to the EAERE. The topics can be in all
fields of environmental and resource economics. Those who want to submit a paper to the
conference should mail four copies of the paper with a one page abstract to the Conference
Secretariat before January 15, 1999.

AERE
Association of Environmental and Resource Economists
Founded in 1979, the Association of Environmental and Resource Economists (AERE) was
established as a means of exchanging ideas, stimulating research, and promoting graduate training in
resource and environmental economics. Today, with a membership of over 800 individuals from
more than thirty nations, AERE is a strong, active organisation. AERE's members come from
academic institutions, the public sector, and private industry. It draws from traditional economics,
agricultural economics, forestry, and natural resource schools. With its own journal, the Journal of
Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM), a newsletter issued twice a year, and
sponsorship of annual conference sessions and workshops, AERE provides many forums for
exchanging ideas relevant to the allocation and management of natural and environmental resources.
Benefits of AERE membership include:
A reduced subscription rate and reduced submission fees for the association's publication
Journal of Environmental Economics and Management (JEEM);
∞ A 20 percent discount on selected new publications from Resources for the Future;
∞ A newsletter in May and November, containing information about upcoming conferences, a
variety of notices related to environmental research and policy, position announcements, as well as
short articles on topics of current interest and reports on new and developing AERE programs;
∞ Sponsorship of sessions each year at professional meetings including the January meetings
of the Allied Social Science Associations (ASSA) and the summer meetings of the American
Agricultural Economics Association (AAEA). AERE members are encouraged to propose papers
for presentation at these sessions;
∞ An annual summer workshop sponsored by AERE in cooperation with the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the
Economic Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service.
∞ An annual AERE luncheon held each January during the ASSA meetings. This luncheon is a
good opportunity to renew old friendships and to meet new colleagues who share your professional
interests;
∞ An AERE membership directory free to members of the association.
∞
Our long-term goal is to promote more and better communication among economists who are
interested in natural resource economics issues. We hope that you will join our efforts to achieve
this result. For more information about AERE or to obtain an application form, contact the

EAERE
The European Association of Environmental and Resource Economists is an international scientific
association in the field of environmental and resource economics. According to Article 2 of the
Statutes, the aims of the association are:
(a) to contribute to the development and application of environmental and resource economics as a
science in Europe;
(b) to improve communication and contacts between teachers, researchers and students in
environmental and resource economics in the different European countries;
(c) to develop and encourage cooperation between teaching institutions of university level and
research institutions in Europe.
History
The EAERE started its activities by organising its First Annual Conference at the University of
Venice in Italy in April 1990. More than 200 scholars from Europe and North-America participated.
Because of the success of the meeting and the enthusiasm of the participants, the organisers decided
to take formal steps to establish the association. During the Second Annual Conference in
Stockholm, Sweden, in 1991 candidates for the Presidency and the Council were announced.
After an election by the members of the association, the first elected Council took office in January
1992. As of May 1992, the EAERE has its legal seat in Siegen, Germany. At the Third Annual
Conference in Krakow, Poland, on 19 June 1992 the Statutes were approved. Six years later the
EAERE returns to Venice, Italy, on the occasion of the First World Congress of Environmental and
Resource Economists in cooperation with the North-American AERE and the Fondazione Eni
Enrico Mattei.
The first president was Henk Folmer, Wageningen Agricultural University, the Netherlands. He was
succeeded by Rüdiger Pethig, University of Siegen, Germany, for the term 1994-1995, then followed
by Domenico Siniscalco, University of Turin and Fondazione ENI E.Mattei, Italy, for the term
1996-1997. The last two presidents were assisted by the secretary-general Alessandro Lanza,
Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei, Milano, Italy. EAERE’s secretariat has been located in Milan, at the
Fondazione ENI E.Mattei, from 1991 to 1998 and has recently moved to Tilburg University.
Annual Conferences
The main activity of the EAERE is to organise each year a conference in one of the European
countries with keynote speakers and policy panels in plenary sessions and contributed papers in
parallel sessions. The number of participants is usually around 300, mainly from Europe but also
from North-America and some from developing countries. The General Assembly of the members of
EAERE is also held at the annual conference.
Journal
The journal Environmental and Resource Economics is published by Kluwer Academic in
cooperation with the EAERE. The president of the EAERE is member of the managing editorial
board. The first issue of the journal in 1991 contained a selection of papers presented at the First
Annual Conference of the EAERE in Venice, Italy, in 1990.
Newsletter
At irregular intervals the journal Environmental and Resource Economics contains a newsletter
provided by the EAERE. News can also be found at the home page of the EAERE under
center.kub.nl.
Membership
Membership of the EAERE supports the aims of the EAERE and entitles someone to a reduced
personal subscription rate for Environmental and Resource Economics and Resource and Energy
Economics, a reduced registration fee for the annual conferences, and the right to vote in the General
Assembly and the Council elections.
Membership is divided into two categories:
- individual membership is open to persons who by their profession, training or function are
involved in environmental and resource economics as a science
- institutional membership is open to the public and private institutions that materially support
EAERE.
Membership ends by a letter of resignation from the member; if membership fees are more than 12
months overdue; or by decision of the General Assembly. Membership fees can be paid for a period
of one year or a period of three years.
The current fee is 30 ECU per year. Persons from Eastern European and less developed countries
can pay a reduced fee of currently 10 ECU per year. For persons under the age of 30 a free
membership is available. The method of payment is by major credit card or by cheque. Membership
forms can be obtained at the annual conferences or from the EAERE secretariat.

FONDAZIONE ENI ENRICO MATTEI
The Fondazione Eni Enrico Mattei is a non-profit, non-partisan research institution established to
carry out research in the field of sustainable development. Recognised by the President of the
Italian Republic in July 1989, it has since become a leading international research centre. One of its
principal aims is to promote interaction between academic, industrial and public policy spheres in
order to comprehensively address concerns about economic development and environmental
degradation.
The Fondazione’s activities are guided by four fundamental criteria: i) to analyse relevant and
innovative research areas ii) to focus on “real” world issues; iii) to integrate multi-disciplinary
approaches; iv) to create and foster international research networks. FEEM also supplies technical
support and advice to the public and private decision-making process in the economic and
environmental field, at the national as well international level (the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry
of the Environment, the Treasury, expert groups under the umbrellas of the EU, the OECD, the
United Nations, the UN Commission of Sustainable Development, the IPCC, etc.).
Research
The main areas of research are:
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT (co-ordinator Carlo Carraro). The analysis of sustainable
development requires expertise including development, environmental and transport economics,
natural resources management policies, negotiations and international conventions. This programme
integrates specific research on each of these issues and highlights the variables that affect the
dynamics of sustainable development and the policies required to achieve it.
POLITICAL ECONOMY (co-ordinator Domenico Siniscalco). Objectives, decision-making and
results in the economic field are closely interrelated with the workings of political, legislative, and
social institutions. This area of research consists of different projects that examine the relations
among institutions, organisations and behaviours from a theoretical and empirical point of view.
THE FIRM AND THE ENVIRONMENT (co-ordinator Giuseppe Sammarco). Firms have a
fundamental role in the resolution of environmental problems and in the promotion of sustainable
development. This area of research develops tools for environmental accounting, reporting,
management and benchmarking that can be used by firms and guide public policies.
Carlo Carraro is the research director. Marcella Pavan co-ordinates the research projects financed by
international organisations.
