Faustina’s braids exhibition at Palazzo Leoni Montanari, Vicenza

Faustina’s braids: women’s hairstyles and power in the Renaissance

The theme of the exhibition addresses for the first time in a monographic way a fundamental aspect of the art, culture, society and antiquarian studies of the Renaissance: women’s hairstyles. Through a wide-ranging selection of works, from imperial busts to Renaissance ones, from paintings to sculptures, from ancient coins to modern medals, from drawings to printed volumes (with a final neoclassical appendix), we will try to reconstruct the fascinating and complex of fifteenth and sixteenth century hair, the artistic possibilities they offered and their importance in Italian society and fashion.

At Palazzo Leoni Montanari in Vicenza, bordering our Relais Santa Corona!

Until 04/07/2024

From Tuesday to Sunday from 10.00 to 18.00

Monday closed

ARS IUVENES – Exhibition of young artists of Academy of Fine Arts at Relais Santa Corona

LeieLei by Matteo Daloiso at Relais Santa Corona, Vicenza

Free entry, from 11/27/23 to 12/17/23

The Relais Santa Corona presents the ARS IUVENES exhibition offering the opportunity to young artists who attend the Academy of Fine Arts to exhibit their works for free.

The first artist selected is Matteo Daloiso, born in Vimercate (MB) in 2003. An experimental artist, he is particularly attracted by the expressive potential of colour. He currently studies artistic decoration at the Academy of Fine Arts in Brescia.

The exhibition aims to reconstruct all facets of the female figure. Since the artist is a man, it is a real investigation, driven by a profound respect but also fascination towards the subject. Each work is imbued with a different vibration impressed by the artistic techniques used. The women represented belong to different times and places. The path is inaugurated by the revisitation of the Nike of Samothrace, a symbol of beauty for the classical world. It is compared to the different costume of the contemporary woman, represented in two panels: a sober girl at the bar and the diva in an evening dress. A design element acts as a connection: a sideboard, made with recycled materials, where two women invite us to grab the handles and open the doors to follow them into their fantastic universe which also becomes ours. In his subsequent works the artist expresses the modesty and delicacy of the faces, outlined with spontaneous instinctiveness thanks to the skilful use of the brush. The female world appears to us in the dream of the double-faced mantis woman, but also in the representation of the subhuman condition of Afghan women, often forced to hide their nature; the work is placed alongside, as if in reaction, an almost photographic depiction of a girl who screams her desire to live to the world: she suffers from her but is also resilient, as symbolized by the water that flows and wets her face . The same energy explodes in the last canvas that closes the exhibition, a pop reinterpretation of a female face.

Welcome to the room La Salute

In our Relais every room has a name and on the first floor is located room La Salute.

The Basilica della Salute was erected in Venice at Punta della Dogana. It was designed by Baldassare Longhena and represents one of the best expressions of Venetian Baroque architecture. The building was erected as a votive offering by the Venetians to the Virgin Mary for liberation from the plague of 1630-1631. On November 21st the feast of the Madonna della Salute is celebrated in Venice: the inhabitants of the city cross a bridge, originally made of boats and today floating, which connects San Marco to the basilica. The octagonal body of the building rests on a hemispherical dome, on whose lantern stands the statue of the Virgin; refined spiral volute act as buttresses. Through the symbolism of the number 8, the plant recalls the concept of Stella Maris, a name of Mary seen as the morning star who guides sailors across the sea.

Come to our Relais and visit Vicenza, a good base for discover all the Veneto.

BISAZZA FOUNDATION: FREE GUIDED TOURS every Friday in July at 4.00 pm

If the quintessential Victorian heroine conceived by Lewis Carroll, Alice, fell down a 21st-century white rabbit’s hole, she would undoubtedly find herself at ease at the Bisazza Foundation in Vicenza. Neither the Queen of Hearts nor the Mad Hatter live here, but a monumental multicolored armchair more than three meters high, a sparkling silver-colored candelabra, weighing about 850 kilos, covered with thousands of mosaic tiles, and a marvelous , extravagant mosaic-coated car in perfect working order. At the end of the walk, he could also fall asleep inside the RockChamber, the site-specific installation by Arik Levy whose black, shiny and angular shapes are reminiscent of a sparkling meteorite. A car is required to reach the foundation from our Relais Santa Corona. Relais Santa Corona, much better than a hotel!

Vicenzatour 2023 – Villa Ghislanzoni Curti

A few kilometers from Vicenza, stands the village of Bertesina, whose etymology of the name reminds us of the two fundamental elements of the Vicenza fraction: the Earth (Brait) and the Water (Tesina), elements on which the men and women of the past have built their existence.

Hence, in the most ancient times, the landscape was filled with mill wheels and humble houses that were very different from the elegant city residences. But, over the centuries, these lands so close to Vicenza were also chosen for stately homes, such as the eighteenth-century Villa Ghislanzoni Curti. Through a guided tour, the history of the village and its evolution will be re-proposed, with an explanation of Villa Ghislanzoni Curti, which houses an elegant Italian garden, a historic park of over three hectares and a greenhouse from the early twentieth century. Unique in its kind, the latter welcomes the visitor with an enveloping ficus repens which gives the room a late-romantic look. The location can be reached from our Relais Santa Corona by car. Relais Santa Corona, much better than a hotel!

When: SATURDAY, 05.13.2023, 10:00 | VIA SAN CRISTOFORO, BERTESINA | VICENZA
