F eats, masquerades, colourful costumes and more. In the XVII and XVIII century Carnival in Venice used to last much more than it does today. It officially started on December 26th – although celebrations usually started in the first days of October – and lasted until Ash Wednesday. It was the only period in which the Venetian state allowed gambling although only in the “Ridotto Pubblico” – public gaming rooms. The “Ridotto”, inaugurated in 1638 in Palazzo Dandolo in San Moisè – close to Saint Mark –, can be considered a sign of the inability of the Serenissima Republic to tackle the widespread phenomenon of gambling. Threats, prohibitions and bans imposed in the previous years didn’t produce any result. Gambling had become an integral part of the life of the Venetian society: “ridotti”, casinos, private houses as well as osterias, shops, warehouses, squares and “calli” had become meeting points for illegal gambling for all social classes. Venice tried to contain and regulate the phenomenon by channelling in state coffers part of the large amount of money circulating in the hands of gamblers. Indeed, the “Ridotto” imposed precise rules: the patricians were the only ones who could distribute cards, they had to don robe and wig but F este, balli in maschera, costumi variopinti, ma non solo. Il Carnevale, che nel XVII e XVIII secolo durava a Venezia ben più di oggi, protraendosi ufficialmente dal 26 dicembre (ma in realtà i festeggiamenti cominciavano dai primi di ottobre) fino alle Ceneri, era anche l’unico periodo nel quale lo Stato veneziano permetteva il gioco d’azzardo, anche se solo nel Ridotto Pubblico. Inaugurato nel 1638 all’interno di Palazzo Dandolo a San Moisè (vicino a San Marco), il Ridotto può essere considerato quasi come un’ammissione di impotenza della Serenissima di fronte al dilagante fenomeno del gioco: minacce, proibizioni e divieti emanati negli anni precedenti avevano sortito ben poco effetto, il gioco era ormai diventato parte integrante della vita della società veneziana, e ridotti, casini, case private, ma anche osterie, botteghe, magazzini, piazze e calli, erano usati da tutte le classi sociali come ritrovi da gioco clandestini. Venezia volle così arginare e regolamentare il fenomeno, facendo inoltre convogliare nelle sue casse parte del fiume di denaro che scorreva dalle mani dei giocatori. Il Ridotto aveva infatti regole ben precise: solo i patrizi potevano tenere banco (ovvero distribuire le carte), indossando toga, parrucca e 2 THE BAUTA The Bauta was the Venetian mask par excellence. It wasn’t a mere Carnival costume but a gown to be worn in the Ridotto or at the theatre. It consisted of a black veil (“zendaletto”) which covered ears, hair and neck, a wide mantel (“tabarro”), a three-pointed hat and a white mask (“larva”) which used to cover the higher part of the face and thanks to its protruding shape it was able to change the voice timbre of the person wearing it. LA BAUTA La Bauta era la maschera veneziana per eccellenza, non un costume per il Carnevale ma un abito da indossare al Ridotto e a teatro. Era costituita da un velo nero (zendaletto) che copriva le orecchie, i capelli ed il collo, un ampio mantello (tabarro), un cappello a tre punte e una maschera bianca, la “larva”, che copriva la parte superiore del viso e consentiva, con la sua forma sporgente, di modificare il timbro di voce di chi la indossava. 1.

Gambling was allowed in appropriate halls, tables could not be reserved nor hot food be eaten in the halls, and it was officially prohibited to play without money. The fact that game gambling was authorized only during Carnival attracted a large number of foreigners. Thousands of travellers thronged Venice attracted by the intense theatrical season, by feasts, entertainment and gambling. The Ridotto can rightly be defined the pivot of the city’s ludic life, the place which everyone visits sooner or later, at least to experience the crowded and noisy atmosphere of the “camera lunga” – long entrance hall – which was in con- a volto scoperto, mentre i giocatori erano obbligati ad indossare la Bauta; il gioco era permesso solo nelle sale apposite, e nessuno poteva riservare i tavoli o consumare nelle sale cibi cotti; ufficialmente non era consentito giocare sulla parola. Il fatto che si potesse giocare solo durante il Carnevale, attrasse in gran numero gli stranieri. I viaggiatori, richiamati dall’intensissima stagione teatrale, dalle feste, dai divertimenti e dal gioco, accorrevano a migliaia. Il Ridotto può essere a ragione definito il fulcro della vita ludica cittadina, il luogo in cui tutti prima o poi mettevano piede, anche solo per respirare quell’atmosfera affollata e rumorosissima della “camera lunga” (l’ampio salone d’ingresso) così in contrasto con il silenzio quasi religioso che regnava nelle 4 3.

Museo del Settecento Veneziano, Ca' Rezzonico - Venice salette in cui i giocatori puntavano. E perdevano. Un’atmosfera in realtà molto diversa da quella che caratterizzava i casini, o ridotti, privati. Luoghi di incontro, di conversazione piacevole e galante, ma anche, in alcuni casi, di discussioni politiche, artistiche e letterarie, i casini erano piccoli e appartati, ricavati nei mezzanini dei palazzi padronali o da case situate, rispetto a questi, più vicine al centro cittadino e prese in affitto dai patrizi. Sempre di più, nella gaudente e civettuola società veneziana del ‘600 e del ‘700, la nobiltà sentiva il bisogno di un punto di riferimento per incontrare gli amici e consumare i riti mondani di cui la società della maschera e del Carnevale si nutriva: raffinati, eleganti, riscaldati da maliziosi caminetti e arredati con un gusto che portava in primo piano la comodità (che a sua volta favoriva gli amabili colloqui), i casini erano veri e propri “luoghi di delizie”, che denotano una ricerca di intimità certo non possibile nei grandi, freddi palazzi. Intimità riscontrabile nell’esistente Casino della Procuratessa Venier, situato tra Rialto e San Marco, sopra il ponte dei Baretteri. Alzando gli occhi, dal ponte, si nota ancora sulla facciata di un anonimo palazzo il “liagò”, sorta di terrazzo coperto dal quale si potevano ammirare, non visti, i cortei di maschere che si dirigevano verso la Piazza. L’interno conserva deliziosi stucchi e pitture, specchi e caminetti intagliati, porte ed armadi lavorati con gusto e perizia, ma anche uno spioncino che, situato nel salone centrale, permetteva di vedere chi era nel sottoportego, e di sfuggire così gli indesiderati testimoni di giochi d’azzardo e svaghi proibiti. 5 THE DELETERIOUS VICE OF GAMBLING The closing down of the Ridotto Pubblico by the Republic of Venice in 1774 – owing to the continuous spreading of “the deleterious vice of gambling” – caused a slump in the selling of masks. Tradesmen protested since the sale of masks – which were compulsory in the ridotti – was directly linked to the number of visitors. Moreover the disposition had the only effect of increasing and spreading the vice of gambling. The number of private casinos increased to 136, 114 of which were located close to Saint Mark’s square. IL VIZIO FUNESTO DEL GIOCO Quando il Ridotto Pubblico fu chiuso dalla Repubblica, nel 1774, perché il “vizio funesto del gioco” continuava a crescere, ci fu un crollo verticale nella vendita delle maschere. I commercianti protestarono vivacemente, essendo i loro incassi direttamente proporzionali al numero dei frequentatori del ritrovo, che dovevano indossare la maschera obbligatoriamente. Inoltre la chiusura del Ridotto non fece altro che moltiplicare e diffondere il vizio del gioco: il numero dei casini privati crebbe a 136, di cui 114 erano situati nelle vicinanze di Piazza San Marco. 6 5-6.

FOCUS ON FOCUS ON 3 trast with the almost religious silence of the small rooms in which players bet, and normally lost. A completely different atmosphere from the one of the casinos or private ridotti, which were the venue for meetings, delightful and gallant conversations but, at times, also of political, artistic and literary discussions. They were small and isolated, usually built out of the mezzanines of private palaces or out of houses rented from the patricians, usually closer to the city centre than the first ones. The nobility of the hedonistic and flirtatious Venetian society of the 17th and 18th century felt increasingly the need for a place where to meet friends and experience social rites which nurtured the society of the mask and of Carnival. Refined, elegant, heated by malicious fireplaces and furnished in a way that gave priority to comfort, the casinos were places of real delight denoting the search for intimacy which could not be found in large and cold palaces. The same intimacy can be found in the existing Casino of Procuratessa Venier, situated between Rialto and San Marco, above the Baretteri bridge. By looking up from the bridge one can still see the “liagò” on the façade of an anonymous palace. It is a sort of covered terrace from which the procession of masks heading towards the square could be admired unnoticed. The interior of the casino treasures marvellous stuccos and paintings, mirrors and engraved fire-places, doors and wardrobes decorated with gusto and expertise, as well as a eyehole situated in the central hall. It enabled to see who was in the “sottoportego” and thus to elude undesired eyewitnesses of gambling and prohibited pleasures.

PHILIP-LORCA DI CORCIA - FOTOGRAFIE 1975-2003 Uno dei più significativi artisti-fotografi del nostro tempo. Il “continuum” della cosiddetta “street photography”, quella che mezzo secolo fa annoverò fotografi del calibro di Frank, Egglestone e Adams. Venticinque anni di vita privata sono raccolti in settantasei scatti a formare “A Storybook Life”, il capitolo fondante della mostra: dagli amici alla famiglia, dai viaggi alle città, con un particolare accento a ritrarre bello e brutto della vita, la felicità e il dolore, la sorpresa e l’incantamento. Vite di giovani ragazzi di strada ritratti nella Hollywood primi anni ’90 sono narrate invece nella sezione “Hustlers”, mentre l’alienazione degli abitanti delle grandi città europee e americane emerge dalle foto fatte a gruppi di passanti, o a singole figure, a formare i più recenti insiemi di “Streetwork”, “Two Hours” e “Heads” dai grandi ritratti impersonali. TIEPOLO’S COPPERS wo outstanding show cycles at the Musei Civici Veneziani , launched in summer 2004, end with two exhibitions. The focus is again on the Bicentenary of Giandomenico Tiepolo’s death and on Ca’Rezzonico hosting the second and last exhibition. After the extraordinary exhibition on the Drawings organized by Attilia Dorigato, it is now the turn of “I Rami per le acqueforti dalle collezioni del Museo Correr”, organized by Camillo Tonini (on view until February 9th). The Correr Museum treasures thirty-three copper-plates etched by the Tiepolos: seven by Giambattista, twenty-five by Giandomenico and one by Lorenzo. The displayed works come from the collections of Teodoro Correr (after whom the museum was called) that he decided to leave to the future generations as a symbol of the greatness of the artists who have contributed to the splendour of Venice. It was an attempt to collect information about a glorious past which was to be overcome by the nineteenth century Neoclassicism. Despite the exiguous number of works, this precious collection is fundamental for the study of the etching technique used by Tiepolo, to understand the procedure of the single prints and the relation and often complex artistic exchanges between the father-master and the sons. The “dell’adorazione dei Magi” deserves particular merit, the series of “Heads” include the self-portrait and portrait of the father Giambattista. Given the concomitance of outstanding initiatives on the Carpaccio, within the exhibition “Recent Restorations” Carpaccio’s “Madonna col Bambino” – recently restored by “Save Venice Inc” – can be admired at the Ducale Palace until March 13 in the Sala degli Scarlatti. T MUSEO DI CA’ REZZONICO Museo del Settecento Veneziano Dorsoduro, 3136 Info: +39.041.2410100 10am - 5pm until 9th February2005 I rami del Tiepolo ue mostre chiudono due importanti rassegne ai Musei Civici Veneziani avviate nell’estate 2004. Ritornano i riflettori sul Bicentenario della morte di Giandomenico Tiepolo e su Ca’Rezzonico che ne ospita il secondo e ultimo appuntamento espositivo. Dopo la splendida mostra sui Disegni curata da Attilia Dorigato è ora il momento de “I Rami per le acqueforti dalle collezioni del Museo Correr”, a cura di Camillo Tonini (fino al 9 febbraio). Il Museo Correr conserva infatti un nucleo di trentatré lastre in rame incise all’acquaforte dai Tiepolo: sette per mano di Giambattista, venticinque di Giandomenico e una di Lorenzo. Si tratta di un fondo proveniente dalle raccolte che Teodoro Correr (dal quale il museo prende il nome), nel tentativo di raccogliere memoria di un passato che avrebbe presto lasciato il passo al Neoclassicismo ottocentesco, decise di lasciare ai posteri a futura memoria dei grandi artisti di cui Venezia si avvalse nei momenti di maggior splendore. Si tratta di un fondo davvero prezioso nonostante l’esiguità delle opere: fondamentale non solo per lo studio dell’acquaforte usata dai Tiepolo, ma anche per la conoscenza dell’iter delle singole stampe con i successivi stati e, più in generale, per una riflessione sui rapporti e gli scambi, spesso complessi, intercorsi tra i figli e il padre-maestro. Da segnalare su tutti lo splendido esempio “dell’Adorazione dei Magi” , mentre tra le “Teste” figurano anche l’autoritratto e il ritratto del padre Giambattista. A Palazzo Ducale invece, vista la concomitanza con altre importanti iniziative sul Carpaccio, sempre per la rassegna “Restauri Recenti” sarà possibile ammirare fino al 13 marzo in Sala degli Scarlatti la sua “Madonna col Bambino” dopo il restauro a cura di “Save Venice Inc”.

MUSEUMS guide G The intertwining of science and art The theatre of bodies: the most conspicuous and remarkable Reinassance anatomic atlas, preserved in perfect conditions by time, on display at the Biblioteca Marciana. irolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente, medico, visse tra il 1533 e il 1619 e fu per cinquant’anni insegnante di anatomia all’Università di Padova. Per meglio insegnare ai suoi studenti e, in generale, per realizzare un’opera mai concepita e portata a termine da alcuno, l’esimio studioso fece realizzare una serie di grandi tavole anatomiche – le cosiddette “pitture colorate d'anatomia” – che avrebbero dovuto rappresentare nei minimi particolari il corpo umano e le fattezze anatomiche di alcuni animali. L’ambizioso progetto, intitolato “Totius animalis fabricae theatrum”, non fu mai concluso, nonostante nel 1600 fossero già state realizzate più di trecento tavole. Molte di queste – invero più di duecento – in gran parte inedite, sono oggi conservate presso la Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana di Venezia. La mostra “Il teatro dei corpi - Le pitture colorate d’anatomia di Girolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente” (Sale Monumentali della Biblioteca Marciana dal 17 dicembre 2004 all’8 maggio 2005) ideata e curata da Maurizio Rippa Bonati, intende presentare proprio queste tavole fabriciane come il più consistente e G 2 3 MUSEUMS guide irolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente, doctor, who lived between 1533 and 1619, was anatomy professor for fifty years at the Padua University. To better teach his students and, more in general, to create a work never conceived nor completed by anyone, the scholar ordered the creation of a series of large anatomic boards – known as “paintings coloured with anatomy” which had to portray the human body in detail as well as the anatomic features of certain animals. This ambitious project, entitled “Totius animalis fabricae theatrum”, was never completed, even if in 1600 more that three hundred boards had been created. Many of them – more than two hundred – are preserved at the “Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana” of Venice. The show “Il teatro dei corpi – Le pitture colorate d’anatomia di Girolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente” – “The Theatre of the Bodies - paintings coloured with anatomy by Girolamo Fabrici d’Acquapendente”, in the “Sale Monumentali” of the “Biblioteca Marciana” from 17th December to 8th May 2005 – conceived and organized by Maurizio Rippa Bonati, aims at displaying the Fabrici’s bo- straordinario atlante anatomico rinascimentale giunto intatto fino ai giorni nostri, realizzate, come sono, a colori, a grandezza naturale e secondo una modalità tridimensionale. Il termine “teatro” che ricorre nel titolo vuole ricordare come esso sia il luogo dove si effettuano le dissezioni anatomiche: il più antico dell’università di Padova venne costruito proprio durante il periodo in cui insegnò il Fabrici. Ma con questo termine, secondo una diffusa tradizione rinascimentale, era definita qualsiasi forma di esposizione, sia fisica che “virtuale”, come l’opera a stampa che aveva in mente il medico patavino. La mano è stata elevata a logo simbolo della rassegna e la scelta non poteva non essere più felice poiché questo arto, dalla particolarità distintiva del genere umano, è stato studiato con la muscolatura che ne manovra le dita - non solo dagli anatomisti ma anche dagli artisti, si citi l’esempio di Leonardo da Vinci o dei Tiepolo. La mostra è ospitata nella Sala dei Filosofi o del Sansovino, dal nome dell’architetto che realizzò il progetto della Libreria.

The word “theatre” mentioned in the title underlines that it is the place where anatomic dissections are carried out: the most ancient one of the Padua University was build in the period in which Fabrici worked as a professor. The word, according to a widespread Reinassance tradition, indicated any kind of exhibition, both physical and “virtual”, like the work conceived by the Paduan doctor. The symbol chosen to represent the show is the hand, which couldn’t be more fitting since this limb – with the musculature manoeuvring fingers – has been studied both by anatomists and by artists (painters and sculptors) in the attempt to portray it in the most faithful way: let us only think about Leonardo da Vinci and the Tiepolos. The show is hosted in the “Sale Monumentali” of the “Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana”, precisely in the “Sala dei Filosofi” also “Sala del Sansovino”, which has been named after the architect who designed the Library. The precious volumes and the single boards are placed in twelve large glass cases, all of them exhaustively explained by twelve panels with legends explaining the meaning of each precious work. map: E3 - S.

The Cube Gallery differs from the former in its dedication for the most part to artists emerging from the Venetian scene both local and international. Its intention is to restore the relationship between young artists and private galleries, who have in the last few years given preference to established artists, with few exceptions. The aim of the gallery is also to be space of convergence and comparison between these artists who in the past have had difficulty in finding spaces in which to gather and exhibit, which meant they leaned towards a sometimes unproductive individualism. Inaugurata il 27 settembre 2002 la Cube Gallery nasce dalla collaborazione di Massimiliano Bugno e Paolo Vincenzi e dall’esperienza maturata in dodici anni di attività nella Bugno Art Gallery, rispetto alla quale la Cube si differenzierà dedicandosi maggiormente ad artisti emergenti del panorama veneziano, nazionale ed internazionale, con l’intento di ricucire una relazione tra i giovani artisti e le gallerie private, che negli ultimi anni, salvo pochissime eccezioni, hanno privilegiato la tradizione degli artisti già storicizzati. Obiettivo della galleria é anche quello di essere luogo di confronto per gli stessi artisti, che nella difficoltà di disporre di spazi espositivi e di aggregazione hanno teso a rinserrarsi in individualismi non sempre produttivi.

Two clashing aspects that do not match. The reason for this jarring are to be found in the history of the Serenissima Republic. Indeed, this reality testifies to the ancient grudge existing between the Republic and the Jesuit – order to which the church belongs – guilty of having supported the Pope against the interests of Venice. In 1606, Pope Paul V asked to judge personally two Venetian priests who had committed common crimes, which was unconceivable for the city that had always brought to the court its citizens. He also claimed the right to designate the Patriarch, duty which had rested for centuries with Venice. Two requests going against the freedom of the Republic that did not tolerate papal interference in state and justice affairs. This was the match that sparked off endo. Tiziano, con la solita maestria, riesce a comunicare il dolore dell’uomo, arso vivo su una graticola per ordine dell’imperatore Valeriano perché aveva diviso il tesone del corpo non possiamo non provare un brivido, accentuato dallo splendido effetto notturno, dal buio e dalle luci guizzanti delle fiamme e delle torce che conferiscosulla sua tomba un episodio della vita del santo eponimo, è datato 1558. na chiesa dall’imponente, pesante, facciata barocca, in una posizione periferica, completamente decentrata. Sono due aspetti che stridono, che non vanno d’accordo, ma i motivi di questa stonatura sono da ricercare nella storia della Serenissima. Il tutto testimonia infatti l’antico rancore esistente tra la Repubblica e i Gesuiti, ordine cui la chiesa appartiene, colpevoli di aver appoggiato un Papa contro gli interessi di Venezia. Nel 1606 papa Paolo V pretese di giudicare due preti veneziani che avevano commesso dei reati comuni, cosa intollerabile per la città, che aveva sempre portato davanti ai propri tribunali i suoi cittadini, anche se preti. Il papa rivendicava inoltre il diritto di designare il Patriarca, un diritto che Venezia manteneva da secoli. Due cose che andavano assolutamente contro la libertà della Repubblica, che non volle mai subire ingerenze papali negli affari di stato e di giustizia. Fu questa la miccia U CHURCHES guide Chiese Scuole Monumenti Listing tematico che fece scoppiare le tensioni esistenti ormai da tempo causando l’interdetto del Papa contro tutta la città. La Repubblica non poteva accettare l’opposizione interna dei Gesuiti in un momento così delicato, e li scortò perciò fino ai confini dello Stato, per sempre. In realtà le cose andarono diversamente: circa cinquanta anni dopo, l’ordine dei frati Crociferi, cui apparteneva la zona vicino alle Fondamenta Nuove, fu soppresso, e tutti i beni, grazie ad un favore di papa Alessandro VII, furono incamerati dalla Repubblica. Non fu un buon affare per i veneziani, che per ricambiare il favore furono costretti, nel 1657, a riammettere in città i Gesuiti, relegandoli però lontano dai centri del potere e del commercio, e per di più con un permesso di soggiorno da rinnovarsi ogni tre anni. Solo nel 1715, riacquistata l’antica sicurezza, i Gesuiti iniziarono il rinnovamento della sede, durato circa 15 anni. Per la nuova costruzione si seguì la tradizionale tipologia gesuitica (un’unica navata con volta a botte), con una forte attenzione all’acustica e all’uso scenografico della luce, per ricreare quel “teatro liturgico” alla base dei loro insegnamenti. All’interno le pareti sembrano essere completamente ricoperte da tappezzerie damascate, e solo avvicinandosi ci si accorge che il sontuoso e permanente addobbo è in realtà realizzato da marmo bianco e verde antico lavorati a disegno di broccato. Sulla volta prevale l’oro, che ricopre gli stucchi in un insieme brillante e solenne.

These works were so costly that, after escaping the Napoleonic expropriations, the church found itself having to sell off many of its works of art. In 1930, after renovation and restoration works, the splendid wooden ceiling shaped like a ship's hull was returned to its former splendour.

The Republic could not accept the inner opposition of the Jesuits in such a delicate moment and they were exiled from the state, forever. Things went, however differently. Fifty years later, the order of the Cross friars, to which the area close to the Fondamenta Nuove belonged, was abolished and their goods, thanks to Pope Alexander VII’s favour, were confiscated by the church. It wasn’t a good deal for the Venetians who, to return the favour, had to readmit in 1657 the Jesuits in the city confining them however far from the centres of power and trade and with a residence permit that had to be renewed every three years. It was only in 1715 that, after having regained the ancient security, they were able to start the renewal of their own seat which lasted around 15 years. The new construction was built following the traditional Jesuitical structure – one single nave with barrel vault – paying particular attention to acoustics and to the scenographic use of light so as to create the ‘liturgical theatre’ underlying their teaching. The inner walls are entirely covered with damask tapestry. Only by taking a closer look one notices that the sumptuous and permanent decorations consist of an ancient white and green marble decorated with brocade drawings. Gold prevails on the vault, covering stuccos that produce a bright solemn effect. ried by the Senate after the plague that struck Venice in 1575.

A JOURNEY into the future Un viaggio nel futuro Exhibition Space - Gli Spazi Espositivi he Church and the Convent of San Salvador have witnessed the birth of this city, through the period of the intensive trade and commerce of the 16th century right up to today, developing into a symbol of avant-garde technological innovation. The history of the former convent of San Salvador, of its two cloisters and of the refectory that gave home to the Augustinian friars, is Venetian history. Rebuilt to its current state between 1506 and 1534, the ecclesiastic structure was completely integrated into the hustle and bustle of the city. Splendid in its architectonic complex and in the interior decorations, halfway through the 1980s became a symbol for communications in the future with a set up of the new telephone exchange with digital electronic commutator. This is just a first step forward. Today, Telecom Italia Lab, located inside the two cloisters, the monumental halls, and the refectory of the former monastery has mounted the exhibition Telecom Future Centre. A gateway to the future and to the new communication technologies. The experimental frontiers and research into innovation displayed in this show use theme itineraries to help the visitors open a ‘new’ gateway to this magnificent city. T a chiesa e il convento di S.

SPECIAL The Venice stage THE INFINITE CARNIVAL Under the Republic there seemed to be a constant tendency for revelry, celebrations and transgression. It was a way to celebrate both significant war victories and the escape from a disaster or a pestilence. Hence a rite. Indeed Carnival in Venice lasted for months. According to sources, masks were allowed from the day after Christmas Day – Boxing Day – throughout Carnival – excluding the Day of Circumcision and Purification – until Ash Wednesday excluded – which marked the beginning of Lent –, over the 15 days of Ascension and then from Ascension Day to 10th June. It was allowed at the time of the coronation of Doges, of solemn public banquets and extraordinary feasts: from 5th October to Advent Sunday, i.e. 16th December: namely all the year round. UN CARNEVALE INFINITO La tendenza al bagordo, al festeggiamento e alla trasgressione pare fosse una costante del passato di Venezia. Un modo per celebrare importanti vittorie belliche e per festeggiare la salvezza da qualche sciagura o dalle pestilenze. Quasi un rito, dunque. Ed in effetti a Venezia il “carnevale” durava mesi. Si permetteva l’uso della maschera da Santo Stefano a tutto il Carnevale, escluse le feste della Circoncisione e della Purificazione, fino al Mercoledì delle Ceneri (naturalmente escluso) che segnava l’inizio della Quaresima. Ma anche nei 15 giorni dell’Ascensione e dal giorno dell’Ascensione fino al 10 giugno; all’epoca dell’incoronazione dei dogi, dei solenni banchetti pubblici e delle feste straordinarie, nonché dal 5 ottobre al 16 dicembre, ossia la prima domenica di Avvento: in pratica tutto l’anno. Carnival’05 di Riccardo Bon arnival transforms Venice into the world capital of entertainment and disguise. Everyone wishes to go to the lagoon city to be photographed in St. Mark’s square and feasts and masquerades are organized throughout the period. However, these customs, are not recent, they are a deeply rooted tradition dating back to the origin of the Republic, as is clear from a large number of factors, from masks first of all. Famous costumes of the period of the “Commedia dell’Arte” can still be admired today in the city’s alleys. There they are, Arlecchino and Pantalone, two worldfamous characters. The first one – who actually comes from Bergamo, city that was part of the mainland dominion of the Republic – has been brought to the fore by Carlo Goldoni in the 17th century. Known for his characteristic dress with colourful patches, he is a credulous, superstitious and shrewd character, always in trouble and he is the servant of the Venetian mask “Pantalone de’ Bisognosi”, as Goldoni him self called him. Pantalone has a red dress and a black mantel, a pointed goatee and a mask. He always laments himself of being poor, although he is an honest – as well as stingy and suspicious – merchant. His name seems to derive C 28.01-8.02 uando arriva Carnevale Venezia diviene una delle capitali mondiali del divertimento e del travestimento. Tutti vogliono accorrere in laguna, sfilare in Piazza San Marco per farsi fotografare e le feste, le serate in maschera si susseguono per tutta la sua durata. Ma queste usanze in realtà non rappresentano un’invenzione recente, rispecchiano piuttosto una tradizione che affonda le sue radici fin alle origini della Repubblica. Ciò si nota in mille situazioni, nelle maschere anzitutto. Ancor oggi si possono infatti ammirare per le strade della città alcuni popolari travestimenti, già della Commedia dell’Arte. Ecco Arlecchino e Pantalone, due personaggi conosciuti a livello mondiale. Il primo, portato alla ribalta da Carlo Goldoni nel Settecento, è in realtà originario di Bergamo (città che faceva parte del dominio di terraferma della Repubblica): dal caratteristico vestito a “toppe” colorate è un personaggio dal carattere credulone, superstizioso e scaltro, si trova sempre in mezzo ai guai, ed è appunto il servitore della maschera veneziana Pantalon de’ Bisognosi, come lo chiamò ancora il Goldoni. Pantalone, dal vestito rosso con mantello nero, pizzetto aguzzo e maschera, piange sempre miseria anche se si Q SPECIAL Il palcoscenico di Venezia tratta di un onesto (ma taccagno e sospettoso) mercante. Sembra che anticamente il nome di questa maschera derivi da “pianta-leoni”, ovvero dall’usanza dei comandanti della Serenissima di piantare stendardi con leoni marciani in ogni terra conquistata. Un’altra popolarissima maschera che possiamo trovare spesso per le calli di Venezia è quella di Pulcinella, veste bianca con cappello a cono e maschera nera sul volto, dall’umore mutevole, anche se pauroso e triste, la cui unica preoccupazione è il cibo. Altri frequenti travestimenti sono quelli delle cortigiane, ovvero le amanti dei nobili alle quali si consentiva solo una volta l’anno (durante il Carnevale appunto) di frequentare ufficialmente l’amante in particolari circostanze; dei nobili o nobildonne patrizie con parrucche, fogge dorate e gonne voluminose; c’è anche Casanova, dal classico vestito corto con parrucca e tricorno, a ricordare il personaggio realmente vissuto e fuggito miracolosamente dai Piombi di Palazzo Ducale ai quali era stato condannato nel 1755 con l’accusa di spionaggio. Ma la maschera veneziana forse più conosciuta è la “bauta”, che ritroviamo spesso qua e là oggi, dall’inconfondibile tricorno nero, il velo o tabarro scuro e l’inquietante e asessuato volto bianco. Oggi, tra l’altro, a seguito dell’istituzione del Carnevale di Venezia avvenuta nel 1983, dopo il boom del turismo di massa, ci si può imbattere in spettacoli e feste organizzati dalle cosiddette “Compagnie della Cal- Costumes, balls, entertainment. Venice transforms itself. With it also its masks, symbol of a still existing tradition… I costumi, i balli, il divertimento. Venezia si trasforma. E con essa le maschere, le icone di una storia che continua ancora oggi… tural associations that have brought to the fore the value of Venetian tradition taking inspiration from the ancient companies of young nobles. Since 1442, these had the task of entertaining the city with the organization of public and private events to honour the presence of outstanding hosts visiting Venice. A way to underline that Carnival, with its shapes and customs, with its rituals and symbols is a deeply rooted feast in Venice. The regulation of the use of masks in Venice under the Republic goes back to 1268, when maskers where banned to play at throwing eggs, which was a typical trick played during Carnival. The first mask to perform this act was the one of Mattaccino, which was characterized by a pointed hat with feather, a face mask with a beak-shaped nose and a redsuit. Today stink-bombs with the same unpleasant smell of eggs are still thrown around Venice during Carnival. The meaning of Carnival is presently enhanced through the organization of shows and theme feasts: like last year’s “Oriental Express” in the memory of Marco Polo’s trip to Catai, “Casanova” in 2002, “Travels and Travellers” in 2001 or the “999 years of feast and Carnival in Venice”. 2005 sees a return to tradition with “Il liston delle maschere e la festa dei teatri”. za” – I Nuovi Cortesi o I Antichi (quelli del poeta erotico Settecentesco Giorgio Baffo) – si tratta di gruppi privati o di associazioni culturali che hanno riproposto il valore della tradizione veneziana rifacendosi alle antiche compagnie di giovani nobili che sin dal 1442 avevano lo scopo di tenere in festa la città per eventi pubblici e privati e di onorare importanti ospiti stranieri in visita a Venezia. Come dire che il Carnevale, con le sue forme e tradizioni, i suoi rituali e i suoi simboli è una realtà ben radicata a Venezia. La regolamentazione dell’uso delle maschere durante la Repubblica risale infatti al lontano 1268, quando si proibisce ai mascherati di giocare alle “ova”. A lanciare le uova era una tipica maschera veneziana, la prima registrata ufficialmente, quella del Mattaccino (che aveva una piuma con un berretto appuntito, una maschera con il naso a becco e una tuta rossa) e nel 2005 si continuano a lanciare le famigerate e pestilenziali “fialette”. La tendenza attuale è quella di dare un significato al carnevale, con un filone di spettacoli, maschere e feste a tema: come avvenuto lo scorso anno con “Oriental Express” e il ricordo del viaggio di Marco Polo nel Catai, con “Casanova” nel 2002; con “Viaggi e Viaggiatori” nel 2001, con i “999 anni di feste e Carnevali a Venezia”. Quest’anno si ritorna alla tradizione con “Il liston delle maschere e la festa dei teatri”. Photos by Francis Glorieus taken from “Venezia. Il carnevale”, per gentile concessione di Vianello Libri. SPECIAL SPECIAL from the words “piantaleoni” – planting lions – i.e. from the usage of the commanders of the Serenissima of planting a banner portraying the St. Mark’s Lion (the symbol of Venice) in each conquered land. A further famous mask that can often be found in the calli of Venice is the one of Pulcinella: white dress, conical hat, black mask on the face. His only concern is food, he is moody, fearful and unhappy. Further frequent costumes are the ones of the courtiers, the noble’s lovers who were allowed to meet their beloved only once a year – during Carnival – in particular circumstances; or the ones of the noble male and female patricians with wigs, golden suits and voluminous gowns; or the one of Casanova consisting of the famous short suit, wig and three-cornered hat that pays tribute to the character who was really sentenced for spying in 1755 and imprisoned in the Piombi of the Ducale Palace from which he miraculously escaped. However, the perhaps most famous Venetian mask is the “Bauta”, often still found around Venice, consisting of the unmistakable black three-cornered hat, dark veil and mantel and the disquieting asexual face. After the institution of Carnival in Venice in 1983 and after the boom in mass tourism, today one can encounter shows and feasts organized by the “Compagnie della Calza” – the “Nuovi Cortesi” and “I Antichi” –, the ones described by the 18th century erotic poet Giorgio Baffo. They are private clubs or cul- Ladies and gentlemen, let the balls open Carnival sweeps away the dust of time from Venetian palaces restoring their ancient magnificence. And dances start again… SPECIAL B alls, bacchanals and revelries as well as stuccos, mirrors and candles to recall the time in which Venice seemed to consist only in that. Carnival opens the historical palaces, the old patricians’ dwellings that often remain close all the year round. Ca’ Zanardi, Palazzo Papafava, Palazzo Pisani Moretta, only to cite a few. Time has changed. The glittering names of the Venetian nobility more and more converted to a bourgeois way of life seem to carry the burden of the ancient palaces: high management costs and large spaces to fill. Families become smaller, as well as the rooms of their dwellings. Inheritors prefer mezzanines, i.e. the smaller parts of buildings, the ones that were ones lived by the numerous servants. At Carnival the dust of time is removed, the large halls regain their magnificence and the balls open. Dressed like in those times and with the same spirit. Rented clothes, sure, but equally fascinating and ‘complicated’ perhaps not totally suited for the erratic movements of modern dances. No matter if a Casanova dances with a Colombina, or if a pirate abandons himself to effusions with a lady of the eighteenth century: they will all be hidden by masks that conceal both the face and the shapes. In the shadow everything flattens out and differences shade. Just like in the seventeenth century, when the servant kissed a patrician in an ephemeral lasciviousness or a consol had political discussions with the gondolier. Carnival, feasts and balls enable the stopping of time in the hope that dawn never arrives. © Interpress Il Carnevale toglie la polvere del tempo dai palazzi veneziani restituendoli agli antichi sfarzi. E si ricomincia a ballare... B alli, baccanali, gozzoviglie. E ancora stucchi, specchi, candele. Tutto per ricordare i tempi andati, quando Venezia era fatta quasi solo per questo. Il Carnevale apre i palazzi storici, le vecchie dimore dei patrizi che, spesso, rimangono chiuse per tutto l’anno. Ca’ Zanardi, Palazzo Papafava, Palazzo Pisani Moretta, solo per citarne alcuni. I tempi sono cambiati. I nomi luccicanti della nobiltà veneziana, sempre più imborghesita sembrano portare il peso dei vecchi palazzi. Costi altissimi di gestione e spazi enormi da riempire. Le famiglie si riducono in numero, come i locali delle loro abitazioni. Gli eredi preferiscono i mezzanini, le parti più piccole degli edifici, quelli che una volta erano abitati dalla numerosa servitù. E allora, a Carnevale, si toglie la polvere del tempo, i grandi saloni si restituiscono agli antichi sfarzi e si comincia a ballare. Vestiti come allora, con lo stesso spirito di allora. Costumi noleggiati, certo, ma non meno affascinanti e complicati che forse poco si addicono ai movimenti scomposti delle danze moderne. Ma poco importa se un Casanova ballerà con una Colombina, o se un pirata si lascerà andare in effusioni con una dama del Settecento: saranno tutti nascosti dalla maschera, che oltre ai volti nasconde anche le forme. E nell’ombra tutto si appiattisce, le differenze sfumano. Così, proprio come nel Settecento quando la serva baciava il patrizio in una effimera lascivia, o il console si intratteneva in discussioni politiche con il gondoliere.

Venezia - S.Polo, 80 (Rialto) - ph./fax +39.041.5223857 T L a tradizione, il costume, la cultura. Venezia riscopre la sua storia attraverso la maschera. Un’arte che riporta all’antica scuola dei maschereri, ripresa e rivisitata oggi nelle botteghe artigiane del centro storico. Il Carnevale era un tempo un momento magico che investiva tutta la città. La libertà, la trasgressione nei confronti delle gerarchie e delle regole che venivano imposte fino alla fine del Settecento dalla Serenissima Repubblica. Ma in realtà la maschera era usata per sei mesi l’anno. Portata dai signori, nei caffè, nei “ridotti” della città, dalle dame alle numerose feste di palazzo dell’aristocrazia veneziana. Serviva anche al popolo, per poter confondersi fra la folla. Calava un’atmosfera di mistero in quel tempo. Mantelli neri, i famosi “tabari”, e bianche baute che davano alla figura un aurea di mistero. La maschera, insomma, rendeva tutti uguali. Saltimbanchi, prostitute, nobiluomini e ciarlatani. Ma era anche strumento di lavoro. Come quella a “naso lungo” usata dal “medico industrioso”: il medico della peste che si copriva il volto per non farsi riconoscere dal popolo che lo avrebbe evitato. Una tortura deve essere stato indossare la “muta”, una maschera, solitamente nera, portata dalle signore e che si reggeva in volto attraverso un “boccaglio” da serrare fra i denti. Nel corso della storia la maschera subisce una evoluzione. Prima è accessoria al vestito, poi, nelle occasioni carnevalesche, prende le forme della commedia dell’arte. In un modo o nell’altro il mistero resta intatto nel tempo. SPECIAL COSTUMES & ACCESSORIES radition, costume, culture. Venice rediscovers its history through costume. Costume creation is an art that takes us back to the ancient school of mask makers, taken up again and to be seen anew in the craft shops in the historic centre. Carnival was once a magic moment that enveloped the whole city, standing for liberty and trangression against the regulations imposed by the Most Serene Republic until the end of the eighteenth century. Yet masked costume was worn for six months of the year. It was used by gentlemen in the cafés and gambling places and by the ladies at the innumerable parties in the palaces of the Venetian aristocracy. Costume was also worn by the ordinary people, so that they could merge into the crowd. An air of mystery descended over the city in those times. The famous tabari, black Venetian cloaks and the white baute, white robes, made their wearers look enigmatic. The mask, in fact, made everyone the same: tumblers, prostitutes, noblemen and charlatans. But it was also a tool, like the mask with the long nose used by the industrious physician, the plague doctor who covered his face not to be detected by the people, who would have avoided him. It must have been a torture to wear the muta, a ladies’ mask, usually black, held over the face by means of a mouthpiece that had to be clenched between the teeth. Masks underwent a process of change during the course of history: first they were dress accessories, then they were used on all occasions, and then they took on the form of Commedia dell’Arte characters for Carnival occasions. One way or the other, the mystery remains intact in time. © Agenzia Errebi SHOPPING guide Accessories Antiques Jeweller’s shops Boutiques & Griffes Handicraft Foot wear ANTIQUES ANTICHITA’ CESANA Calle XXII Marzo - S.Marco, 2070 map: E5 - ph. +39.041.5227789 LE ZOIE Calle dei Boteri - S.Polo, 1566 map: E4 - ph. +39.041.2758694 SALVIATI Calle XXII Marzo - S.

Each of the glasses sold could not contain less than 100ml. This is the origin of the name “ombra” under which all Venetians call even today a glass of wine. A tradition reflecting the nature and the scent of this marvellous and unique city. Today, in the Doges’ city 50,000 ‘ombre’ are drunk everyday. A substantial figure for a city of no more than 75,000 inhabitants. L’ombra di Venezia is a homage to the long-standing Venetian tradition. In front of a glass of wine new friendships are formed and old ones are reinforced, deals are clinched and communicating becomes easier. Venice, its nature, history, the character of its inhabitants are centred on this rite. L’ombra di Venezia enshrines all these characteristics. The Pinot Grigio, preserved here, is 100% Venetian because is produced, in limited quantity, with a true Venetian passion in the same earth that provided wine for the Palazzo Ducale centuries ago. Its essence is characterized by the scents of Italy. Its colour is the result of the sun that has ripened the grapes. Thanks to this extraordinary wine, you can breath the cordiality and friendship which can still be found today on the shades of the Campanile. With L’ombra di Venezia you can savour the true Venetian tastes, experience the atmosphere, history and tradition of an almost imaginary city. Holding your own bottle of wine and drinking it from your own glasses means possessing a tiny part of that wonder. Indeed, bottles and glasses are created by a famous master glassmaker of Murano. Unique and matchless pieces produced in a limited edition of 999 samples each different from one another. The glass The bottle of “L’ombra di Venezia”, made of Murano glass, has been created with the ancient technique of the mosaic melted at high temperature. The sand has been given its shape and colour by the fire. While the rest, the soul of this type of Murano glass, derives from the technique and experience of the master glassmaker who has created it by blowing on the shapeless amalgam. This particular glass has been therefore created out of that blow, out of the technique enshrined in the inviolable secrets of the furnace. Unique and inimitable. The origin certificate and the ‘murrina’ set in the glass guarantee its quality and originality. The wine The Pinot Grigio “L’ombra di Venezia” is produced in the Italian farm ‘La Vigna del Cason Brusà’ and is the result of an accurate analysis of the “terroir” carried out in cooperation with the ‘Istituto Sperimentale’ of Conegliano. Different clones of Pinot Grigio– from two to five – have been planted in the same vineyard, so as to emphasize their best characteristics. The harvested product, unique in its characteristics, undergoes a treatment which respects both the tradition and the quality of the grapes. A hard and intense process for a unique top quality. “L’ombra di Venezia” – ‘ombra’ meaning glass of wine in the Venetian dialect – reflects the professional ability of the enterprise renowned in Italy and abroad.

At the centre of the flour add the eggs, butter, sugar, milk and grappa. Work the whole until you obtain a soft and smooth dough. Roll it out and cut it with a cutting-wheel into strips or rhombuses . Heat plenty of oil , or suet, in a wide pan and dip in the pastries, fry them until they become slightly brown. Once you have taken them out from the oil and let them dry sprinkle with plenty ice-sugar. i dice che il momento ideale per gustare la vera pasticceria veneziana sia il Carnevale e uno dei più diffusi dolci sembra quasi esser stato inventato per rafforzare il noto proverbio: “a Carnevale ogni scherzo vale”, poiché i Galani non sono altro che semplicissime, sottili fettucce di pasta fritta cosparse di zucchero a velo. Vera e propria burla gastronomica, se ne possono consumare decine senza mai saziarsi, tant’è vero che in molte regioni italiane ricevono nomi che rammentano l’inganno, come frottole, bugie, chiacchiere o cenci. Tradizione vuole che vengano preparate per i bambini nelle cucine delle famiglie veneziane. Hanno a volte il profumo di limone, vaniglia, grappa o liquore e vengono fritte nello strutto bollente (ora sostituito con un più leggero olio di semi, prendendo forme più o meno accartocciate, quindi cosparse di leggerissimo zucchero a velo. Il nome Galani (pronunciato con la tipica “elle” muta dei veneziani, in realtà una “e” brevissima di legatura dal suono molto gutturale e molto chiuso, che solo i veneziani pronunciano correttamente) deriva probabilmente dalla parola gala che in dialetto significa “nastro”: a Venezia i Galani si usano preparare molto sottili, quasi un foglio di carta, in modo tale da mantenerne la fragranza.

Grazie all’estro dello chef Cosimo Giampaolo, abbina i migliori piatti della tradizione veneta a portate nazionali.

DINING guide t is said that the ideal time to savour true Venetian patisserie is Carnival, and one of the most eaten sweets seems to have been invented to reinforce the famous proverb “a Carnevale ogni scherzo vale” – at Carnival all tricks are allowed –, since the “Galani” are nothing but very simple thin slices of fried pastry sprinkled with ice-sugar. A fullblown gastronomic mockery. One can eat dozens of them without ever feeling full up, indeed in various regions of Italy they have been given names that recall the “trick”, like ‘frottole’ – fibs; “bugie” – lies; “chiacchiere” – chatters or “cenci” – tatters. Tradition has it that they are prepared for children in the kitchens of Venetian families. They smell either of lemon, vanilla, “grappa” or of liquor, they are fried in boiling suet (today sunflower oil is used instead) taking different, more or less curled shapes and then sprinkled with ice-sugar. The name “Galani” – pronounced with the typical mute “l” which in reality is a guttural, closed and short “e” that only Venetian can pronounce correctly – probably comes from the word “gala” which in the Venetian dialect means “ribbon”. Indeed, in Venice they are usually very thinly cut, almost as thin as a sheet of paper to maintain the fragrance. Along the riva Schiavoni, situated in the heart of Venice.

At table with patricians and plebeians n Venice, more than anywhere else, gastronomy is culture, an integral part of the most ancient popular traditions, as well as the manifestation of its history. Its genuine and delicious cuisine keeps telling us about a great people and fascinating us with its dishes – characterized by an harmonious coexistence of contrasting tastes, sweet and savoury – that reveal ancient cultural bonds between East and West, North and South, lagoon islands and mainland, sometimes between poor and rich. Venetian gastronomy is the very history of the city, the social cohesion which has always distinguished it. Its cuisine is characterized by a deep popular influence: perhaps for the use of ingredients available to all or for a homogeneous inclination for “tasty” flavours and a real idiosyncrasy between plebeian and patrician cuisine that have never truly existed in Venice. The bond between class and culinary ingredients powerfully emerges only in the Renaissance period. The populace largely used fish, given its abundance. However, the most refined dishes were those prepared with meat, in particular with fowl. In the seventeenth century a new ‘trend’ emerges, God can be honoured also at table and gluttony stops being a feared sin. A wedding, the visit of a foreign ruler, the signing of a treaty were occasions for the organization of sumptuous processions in the city before dazzled subjects. All celebrations were solemnly closed with banquettes, and habit has it that remnants, especially sweets, were distributed among citizens. The Doge personally paid for five banquettes a year, and the most admired show in the ‘Sala del Maggior Consiglio’ was the setting of the table at which members of the government, the nuncio and the ambassador of France sat by right: the Murano glass and the decorated silvers sparkled on the precious Venetian laces. Cuisine in popular feasts of religious nature, a tradition that continues today, was an opportunity to meet other people and for entertainment, especially for lowest classes that were excluded from other social manifestations. I iù che altrove, in Venezia la gastronomia è cultura, parte integrante delle più antiche tradizioni del popolo, rappresentazione della sua storia. La sua genuina e gustosissima cucina continua a raccontarci di un grande popolo e ad affascinarci con i suoi piatti, ove coesistono armoniosamente sapori contrastanti, dolce e salato, che ci rivelano le antiche commistioni culturali tra Oriente ed Occidente, tra nord e sud, tra isole della laguna ed entroterra, talvolta tra plebe e patriziato. La gastronomia veneziana rappresenta la storia della città, la coesione sociale che l’ha caratterizzata da sempre. La sua cucina è caratterizzata dal rilevante ascendente popolare: sarà per l’utilizzo di materie prime disponibili a tutti o, forse, per un’omogenea propensione ai “sapori forti” e una reale idiosincrasia tra cucina plebea e patrizia che a Venezia non è mai realmente esistita. La relazione ceto-ingredienti culinari emerge prepotentemente solo in epoca rinascimentale: il popolo minuto faceva un largo uso di pesce, data l’abbondanza, ma i piatti più ricercati e raffinati erano quelli di carne, specialmente pollame. Il sedicesimo secolo lancia la tendenza di onorare Dio a tavola: il peccato di gola non apparirà più a nessuno tanto spaventoso. Un matrimonio, la visita di un sovrano straniero, la conclusione di un trattato erano l'occasione per organizzare davanti alla meraviglia dei sudditi sontuose processioni per la città. Di ogni festa la conclusione solenne era il banchetto, i cui resti, specie dolciumi, era consuetudine distribuire ai cittadini. Il doge pagava di tasca propria cinque banchetti solenni ogni anno, ma nella sala del Maggior Consiglio lo spettacolo più ammirato era quello dell'apparecchiatura della tavola, a cui sedevano di diritto i membri del governo, il nunzio apostolico e l'ambasciatore di Francia: sui preziosi pizzi veneziani scintillavano i vetri di Murano e gli argenti cesellati. La cucina delle feste popolari di carattere religioso, la cui tradizione continua ancora oggi, rappresentavano un momento di collettività e svago soprattutto per le classi più basse che erano escluse dalle altre manifestazioni sociali.

Traveller and journalist, he comes from one of the oldest glass blowing families on the island. A passionate researcher of history and local custums, he has activated an internet site (www.venetianlegends.it) where one can contribute to the discovery and circulation of hidden or unknown legends. “Venetian legends and ghost stories” (translated in English and French) and “Veneziaenigma” (available only in the original Italian version) can be found in libraries. Alberto Toso Fei, muranese, è nato a Venezia nel 1966. Viaggiatore e giornalista, discende da una delle antiche famiglie di vetrai dell'isola. Appassionato studioso di storia e costume locale, ha attivato un sito internet (www.venetianlegends.it) dove chiunque può contribuire alla scoperta e diffusione di leggende nascoste. Leggende veneziane e storie di fantasmi (tradotto anche in inglese e francese) e "Veneziaenigma" (presente attualmente nella sola edizione italiana) sono i suoi due libri dati alle stampe. Oltre trent’anni fa, in casa Tintoretto (sulla fondamenta dei Mori, a Cannaregio), alloggiò un uomo, Giuseppe R., che vi abitò per circa tre anni e fu protagonista di alcune straordinarie esperienze, condivise in parte con la figlia Anna. L’uomo, ad esempio, raccontava spesso alla figlia come esistesse lo spettro di un uomo sconosciuto che si manifestava in determinate ore del giorno e della notte, senza recare disturbo, apparendo sempre nei medesimi luoghi della casa, che si dice sia stata anche orfanotrofio, ad un certo punto della sua lunga storia. Le esperienze più impressionanti, in effetti, avvennero con i fantasmi di bambini. Al pianterreno – così come lungo la scala – avveniva infatti spesso di sentire distintamente il rumore di piccoli passi sull’impiantito. Più e più volte Giuseppe, inoltre, si sentì prendere per mano da minuscole manine che lo accompagnavano da un piano all’altro; le prime volte l’uomo era spaventatissimo, ma col tempo questo fatto divenne quasi una abitudine. Per Giuseppe i passettini e le manine invisibili che stringevano la sua divennero una dolce consuetudine: sembrava che quelle piccole anime fossero alla ricerca di una figura che le proteggesse, una sorta di papà in carne ed ossa che probabilmente non avevano mai avuto nella loro breve vita. In particolare un episodio vide protagonista anche la figlia dell’uomo, che una sera d’inverno – nel giardino innevato – stava chiacchierando col padre: improvvisamente, davanti ai loro occhi, sul lieve manto nevoso, assistettero al formarsi dal nulla di piccole impronte. Le orme di un bambino. VENETIAN Tales ristorante LA COLOMBA Over thirty years ago, the Tintoretto house was inhabited by a man, Giuseppe R.. He lived there for around thirty years and experienced extraordinary events, partly shared with his daughter Anna. The man often told her daughter that there was the ghost of an unknown man who appeared at a certain time of the day or night, without disturbing, always in the same places of the house, which it is said to have also been an orphanage at a certain point of its long history. The most striking experiences were those had with the ghosts of the children. On the groundfloor, as well as along the stairs, the noise of small step could be plainly heard. Moreover, several times Giuseppe felt tiny hands taking him by the hands and accompanying him from one floor to the other. At start he was very scared but then this event became almost normal. The small steps and the tiny invisible hands holding his had become a sweet custom: those small spirits seemed in search of a figure that would protect them, a sort of bodily father they probably never had during their short lives. One event in particular involved also the daughter of the man, who, on a winter day, was talking with her father in the snow-covered garden. Suddenly, before them, on the blanket of snow, small footprints materialized. The footprints of a child.

OTTOCENTO VENETO: IL TRIONFO DEL COLORE. Treviso, Casa dei Carraresi. Until 27 February 2005 MAINLAND guide Revealing the extraordinary and original contribution made by artists from Venice and the Veneto region to modern art. That is the objective of the exhibition “Ottocento veneto. Il trionfo del colore” – The Nineteenth century in Veneto. The triumph of colour –, hosted by ‘Casa dei Carraresi’ until the end of February. The exhibition, promoted by ‘Fondazione Cassamarca di Treviso’ and edited by Giuseppe Pavanello and Nico Stringa, exhaustively displays – thanks to an innovative organization – a still unexplored artistic itinerary, though richly influenced by modern pictorial movements. It investigates the art of an area by retracing a civilization that is at the basis of our history. The exhibition route unfolds in seven sections: “Il Ritratto” – The Portrait; “La veduta” – The View, “La pittura di genere” – Genre painting; “I Maestri del vero” – The masters of the real, “Vita quotidiana: la vita in famiglia, il gioco, il mercato, il lavoro”; – Everyday life: life within the family, game, market, work; “Venezia”. On display works by artists like Grigoletti, Zona, Stella, Molmenti, Favretto, Bresolin, Caffi, Ciardi, Selvatico, Nono, Bosa as well as by many other less-renowned ones. CASA DEI CARRARESI via Palestro, 33 Treviso - Until 27 February Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday 9am - 7pm; Friday and Saturday 9am - 9pm; closed on Mondays Info: ph. +39.0422.513150/513185 [email protected] Far conoscere lo straordinario e originale contributo che gli artisti veneziani e veneti hanno dato all’arte moderna. E’ questo lo scopo della rassegna, dal titolo “Ottocento veneto. Il trionfo del colore”, ospitata nella Casa dei Carraresi fino alla fine di febbraio. La grande esposizione, promossa dalla Fondazione Cassamarca di Treviso e curata da Giuseppe Pavanello e Nico Stringa, grazie ad un innovativo allestimento, presenta in maniera esaustiva un itinerario artistico ancora poco esplorato, eppure ricco di influenze e ricadute sulle correnti pittoriche moderne. La mostra indaga sull’arte di un territorio, ricostruendo una civiltà che sta alle nostre spalle e che è alle radici della nostra storia. Il percorso espositivo si articola in sette sezioni: “Il Ritratto”; “L’Artista nello studio”; “La Veduta”; “La Pittura di Genere”; “I Maestri del vero”; “Vita quotidiana: la vita in famiglia, il gioco, il mercato, il lavoro”; “Venezia”. In tali sezioni e’ possibile ammirare opere di artisti quali Grigoletti, Zona, Stella, Molmenti, Favretto, Bresolin, Caffi, Ciardi, Selvatico, Nono, Bosa e molti altri meno noti. Palazzo Zabarella, Padova. Until 29 May 2005 The extraordinary exponent of the Belle Époque and of its brilliant protagonists. Giovanni Boldini started off in the experimental environment of the ‘Macchiaioli’ and soon confronted the international scene following his own route characterized by an entirely personal way of painting, still susceptible to the new and at the same time deeply rooted in the tradition of Italian and European art, from Velazquez to Tiepolo. On display the selection of one hundred and twenty works, chosen among Boldini’s large collection, coming from major museums – like the Rome ‘Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna’ , the Naples ‘Capodimonte’ , the Paris ‘Musée d’Orsay’, the New York ‘Metropolitan Museum’ and ‘Philadelphia Museum’ – and from private European and American collections. Info: +39.049.8753100 Il magnifico interprete della Belle Epoque e dei suoi brillanti protagonisti. Giovanni Boldini, partendo dall’ambiente sperimentale dei macchiaioli, si è presto confrontato con la ribalta internazionale seguendo un suo percorso attraverso un modo del tutto personale di dipingere, ancora sensibile al nuovo ma altrettanto radicato nella tradizione dell’arte italiana ed europea, tra Velazquez e Tiepolo. Della enorme produzione pittorica di Boldini, sono state selezionate circa centoventi opere, provenienti dai maggiori musei (la Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna di Roma, Capodimonte a Napoli, il Musée d’Orsay di Parigi, il Metropolitan Museum di New York, il Philadelphia Museum) e collezioni private europee e americane. Info: +39.049.8753100 KANDINSKY AND THE RUSSIAN SPIRIT. Palazzo Forti, Verona. Until 30 January 2005 The irresistible fascination of the existential experiences and the aesthetic journeys lived by the artists of the nineteenth and twentieth century are at the basis of Kandinsky and the Russian spirit’: the result of the close cooperation of Palazzo Forti and the Russian State Museum of St. Petersburg. The exhibition displays around one hundred thirty extraordinary works of art among the most significant in the history of Russian art from the 1800 to today, that have rarely been available in the western world and that have never been displayed in such a complete way: from the nineteenth century “itinerant” painters, to the avant-gardes of Kandinsky, Malevich, Larinov, Goncharova, to the visionary iconography of the present days. Il fascino irresistibile delle esperienze esistenziali e dei percorsi estetici degli artisti vissuti fra Ottocento e Novecento sono alla base della mostra “Kandinsky e l’anima russa”, un grande evento espositivo nato dalla stretta collaborazione fra Palazzo Forti ed il Museo di Stato Russo di San Pietroburgo. La mostra propone circa centotrenta opere di straordinaria intensità, fra le più significative della storia dell’arte russa dall’Ottocento ad oggi, raramente giunte in Occidente e mai presentate secondo un progetto espositivo così completo ed aderente ai propri intenti: dai pittori “ambulanti” dell’800, alle avanguardie dei Kandinsky, Malevich, Larionov, Goncharova, fino alla visionaria iconografia dei nostri giorni. RENAISSANCE BRONZES. THE VOK COLLECTION. Civici Musei agli Eremitani. Until 06 February It is one of those rare occasions: the possibility to admire an extraordinary private collection that for the first time ever leaves the familiar dimension to confront itself with one of the most significant public collections. The Collection is the result of the acquisition of three generations of a mid-European family (the members of the Vok family live in Slovenia, Austria and Italy) and it displays around fifty bronzes of extraordinary quality, often unique works of art of the protagonists of the renaissance bronze sculpture inaugurated in Padua by Donatello’s works for the “Basilica di Sant’Antonio”. The exhibition has been organized in the area of the museum dedicated to temporary exhibitions, adjoining the outstanding collection of Paduan bronzes of the Art Museum – Musei Civici, so as to foster a comparison between the two collection of undeniable quality and beauty. E’ una rara occasione: ammirare un’eccezionale collezione privata che esce per la prima volta dalla dimensione assolutamente familiare per confrontarsi con una delle più importanti collezioni pubbliche. La Collezione, frutto delle acquisizioni di tre generazioni di una famiglia mitteleuropea (i Vok vivono tra Slovenia, Austria e Italia), concentra una cinquantina di bronzi di qualità elevatissima, spesso pezzi unici di protagonisti della superba stagione rinascimentale della scultura bronzea inaugurata a Padova dalle opere di Donatello per la Basilica di Sant’Antonio. La mostra viene proposta negli spazi per esposizioni temporanee del museo, attigui alla importantissima raccolta di bronzi padovani del Museo d’Arte - Musei Civici, proprio per invitare a un confronto tra due raccolte di assoluta qualità e bellezza.
