Sacred and beauty in Russian art, exhibition at Palazzo Leoni Montanari in Vicenza

Until 26 January 2020, in the Baroque setting of the splendid Palazzo Leoni Montanari, next to our Relais Santa Corona, the exhibition “Kandinskij, Gončarova, Chagall. Sacred and beauty in Russian art” will be held.

The masterpieces of Russian artists are around 45 and interact with the precious collection of icons of Intesa San Paolo. A series of works, many of which have never been seen in Italy, mostly from the main museum of Russian art in Moscow, the Tretyakov Gallery, and also from the museums of Yaroslavl, Astrakhan, from the MMOMA (Moscow Museum of Modern Art ) And the Bakhrushin Museum of Performing Arts in Moscow, as well as the Musée Natiònal Marc Chagall in Nice and the Museum of Modern Art Costakis collection in Thessaloniki.

The Russian art world renews its interest in icons in the 20th century, even though by the 1800s many artists had shown interest in this kind of sacred art, but it is with the avant-gardes that the apotheosis is noted. For the Russian people – as Kandinsky constantly repeats – beauty is a sort of inner necessity that comes from experiencing, in everyday life (byt), even the invisible (nevidimoe).

Visiting the museum is an opportunity to learn more about Vicenza and all its surrounding beauties!

The Villa:

Villa Almerico Capra called La Rotonda (also known as Villa Capra Valmarana) is a Venetian villa with a central layout located near the city of Vicenza, not far from the road of the Riviera Berica. Built by Paolo Almerico, who commissioned it from Andrea Palladio in 1566-1567, it was completed by Vincenzo Scamozzi in 1605 for the two Capra brothers, who had acquired the building in 1591.

La Rotonda, as it later became known, is one of the most famous and imitated buildings in the history of modern architecture; it is undoubtedly the most famous villa of Palladio and, probably, of all the Venetian villas. It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites since 1994.

MEDIOEVAL TOWER IN PIAZZA CASTELLO – VICENZA CENTRE

Located in Piazza Castello in the heart of the historic center of Vicenza, a stone’s throw from our Relais Santa Corona, the tower has undergone recent restoration work and will host temporary contemporary art exhibitions. The first exhibition, which will present a series of unpublished works, including paintings and drawings by Neo Rauch and Rosa Loy, specially designed for the Torrione spaces, represents the possibility of approaching the work of two key figures in the international painting scene of the last decades. Their experience is strongly linked to the city of Leipzig, where, from the beginning of the twentieth century until the 2000s, a figurative language was formed which formed an important school of painting (the Leipzig school, in fact) that involved several generations of German artists. The current exhibition will end on 08/31/19.

Concert Budapest Orchestra Vicenza Opera Festival 13/10/2018

This Saturday, October 13 is scheduled the grand concert held by the Budapest Orchestra at the Olympic Theater in Vicenza during the Vicenza Opera Festival. Our Relais Santa Corona hosts part of the cast and is a partner of the initiative.

The Budapest orchestra was founded by master Ivan Fischer in 1983 with the spirit that every musician could express his own individuality within the musical ensemble. This innovative approach has made the orchestra today considered one of the best in the world. The musicians perform in Budapest in the halls of the MUPA and the Franz Liszt Academy, but they are offering concerts for charities or schools. An example is “Cocoa Concerts”, dedicated to families who have autistic persons within their core; “Musica a Mezzanotte” is instead the exhibition dedicated to children and young people. The productions are usually directed by Fischer who gave the orchestra an international feel thanks to the participation of numerous international festivals.

The orchestra will perform in a lyric concert on Saturday, October 13th at 8.30 pm at the Teatro Olimpico, while on Friday 12 October and Sunday 14 October 2018 there will be a performance of Giuseppe Verdi’s opera Falstaff at 8.30 pm.

Questo sabato 13 ottobre è previsto il grande concerto tenuto dalla Budapest Orchestra al Teatro Olimpico di Vicenza in occasione della rassegna Vicenza Opera Festival. Il nostro Relais Santa Corona ospita parte del cast ed è partner dell’iniziativa.

La Budapest orchestra è stata fondata dal maestro Iván Fischer nel 1983 con lo spirito che ogni musicista riuscisse ad esprimere una propria individualità all’interno dell’assemble musicale. Questo approccio innovativo ha fatto si che l’orchestra venga oggi considerata una delle migliori del mondo.

Un esempio è “Cocoa Concerts”, dedicato alle famiglie che hanno all’interno del loro nucleo persone autistiche; “Musica a Mezzanotte” è invece la rassegna dedicata a bambini e giovanissimi. Le produzioni sono solitamente dirette dal maestro Fischer che ha dato all’orchestra un respiro internazionale grazie alla partecipazione di numerosi festival internazionali.

L’orchestra si esibirà in un concerto lirico sabato 13 ottobre alle ore 20.30 al Teatro Olimpico mentre venerdì 12 ottobre e domenica 14 ottobre 2018 si terrà la rappresentazione dell’opera Falstaff di Giuseppe Verdi alle ore 20.30.
