L’Aula Magna dell'Università di Palermo: cronistoria di un cantiere decorativo (1928-1938)
2020
Situata all'interno dell'odierno Dipartimento di Giurisprudenza, l'Aula Magna dell'Università di Palermo è stata progettata dall'architetto Antonio Zanca che firma nel 1929 il progetto esecutivo di un ambiente neo-settecentesco dotato di mobilio e decorazioni pittoriche sulle pareti. Nel 1934 è stato indetto un concorso nazionale per l'affidamento delle decorazioni pittoriche vinto da Arduino Angelucci e Manlio Giarrizzo cui spettano rispettivamente la volta e le pareti. Grazie alla stampa locale è possibile ricostruire - almeno in parte - le vicende di questo concorso che si colloca in un contesto nazionale fortemente attento, dopo la Triennale di Milano del 1933, al problema della decoraz…

Figure della maternità e itinerari dell’attesa negli oggetti del Museo etnografico siciliano Giuseppe Pitrè
2023
Il contributo propone una riflessione sul tema della maternità che lega, come un filo rosso, gli oggetti del Museo etnografico siciliano Giuseppe Pitrè e ne struttura la narrazione. Lo sguardo rivolto alle collezioni e al loro ordinamento restituisce la centralità di una tematica che riflette il senso profondo della cultura che gli oggetti comunicano e svela, attraverso i suoi simboli, i significati contestuali delle sue figure: le madri e i loro corpi, le madrine e i loro ruoli, le levatrici e le loro potenzialità. The contribution proposes a reflection on the theme of motherhood that links the objects of the Sicilian Ethnographic Museum Giuseppe Pitrè as a core idea and a narrative struct…
When the arts inspire businesses: Museums as a heritage redefinition tool of brands
2018
International audience; While the literature has mainly considered brand museums as communication tools or complex retail environments, this article analyses them through a heritage framework and suggests that brands can use heritage technologies of the arts for their own purposes. The case study of the brand museum of the Laughing Cow highlights the heritage technologies the brand uses to endorse two heritage roles: an inter-generational memory role based on the transmission of the brand's history and a community representation role through spaces and objects. As a consequence, this research sheds light on how brands can come to be accepted as heritage objects. By using heritage technologi…
