The exhibition The Hidden Theatre. A story in images is a collection of unpublished photographs dating back to the years of the discovery of the Roman Theatre of Spoleto and its unearthing, from 1938 to 1960.
The exhibition, promoted by the Polo Museale dell’Umbria – Museo Archeologico e Teatro Romano di Spoleto, in collaboration with Astra onlus and the Archivio di Stato di Perugia, section of Spoleto, shows photographs coming from the Accademia Etrusca di Cortona and from the archive of the Museo Archeologico Nazionale dell’Umbria. The exhibition reveals unpublished aspects of the discovery of the Roman theatre and the transformation of the complex of S.Agata from a judicial prison (1867-1957) to a museum.
The history of the monastery of S. Agata – already known thanks to the research of G. Curti, S. Di Sante Coaccioli, S. Gubbiotti, resulting in the 2011 documented book “The Roman Theatre and the former monastery of S.Agata. Chronicle of its transformations” – is now enriched by photographs taken by the then inspector archaeologist Umberto Ciotti, who documented every step of the demolition and excavation work.

National Museum of the Duchy (Spoleto) and Temple of Clitunno (Campello sul Clitunno)
The intentional reuse of Roman worked stone in the Lombard Period
Organized by Associazione Italia Langobardorum and Polo Museale dell’Umbria
Opening: Tuesday, December 18 at 12:00 at the Temple of Clitunno and at 15:00 at the National Museum of the Duchy of Spoleto.
The respect and emulation of the ancient, very widespread in the Lombard period, is one of the most obvious phenomena of that process of acculturation and integration of Lombards, very important for their affirmation. It is along the Flaminia Nova, in the stretch between Spoleto and Campello, that one can find numerous monuments that testify to the reuse of ancient materials in buildings of the early Middle Ages and Romanesque age, many of which arose near cemetery areas outside the city.
The exhibition is part of the cycle of events entitled Longobardi in vetrina (Lombards in the limelight), a project within a series of activities promoted by the Associazione Italia Langobardorum – management structure of the UNESCO site Longobards in Italy. The places of power (568-774 A.D.) of which the municipalities of Spoleto and Campello are founding members – for the dissemination of knowledge of Lombard culture.
The exhibitions will be accompanied by educational and training activities and conferences that makes this project the first nationwide exhibition dedicated to the Lombard people, the largest in terms of extension and involvement of institutions and archaeological heritage. The 15 exhibitions will all be inaugurated by the end of January 2018 and will be collected in a single printed catalogue and in a single virtual exhibition created with MOVIO, the multifunctional open source platform promoted by MiBAC, used to create and publish exhibition guides, digital extensions of real and virtual exhibitions.

Longobardi in vetrina is part of the project Exchange and sharing between museums to enhance the Lombard heritage for which the Association has obtained from MiBACT the admission to funding under Law 77/2006 ‘Measures for the protection and use of UNESCO sites’.

Manual Intelligence: Craft Production and Techniques in the Lombard Period
24 January – 21 July 2019
Museum of the Duchy of Spoleto | MuCiv – MAME of Rome
Openings
Thursday 24 January at 16 – Spoleto
Tuesday 29 January at 11.30 a.m. – Rome
15 exhibitions are held at the same time and 7 themes are treated within the project Longobards in the limelight. Exchanges and sharing between museums to enhance the Longobard heritage, conceived and coordinated by Italia Langobardorum Association, management structure of the UNESCO site “Longobards in Italy. The places of power (568-774 A.D.).
An ambitious project that enjoys the patronage of the Ministry of Heritage and Culture and obtained the contribution of MIBAC Law 77/2006, dedicated to Italian UNESCO sites.
The project aims at raising knowledge about Longobard culture through the enhancement of the museums located in the seven monumental complexes that are part of the UNESCO site, but also of those sites that were involved by the passage of the Longobards. Collaboration and synergy between museums are encouraged by temporary exchanges of artworks, divided into thematic exhibitions, hosted in the 6 museums of the UNESCO site network (National Archaeological Museum of Cividale del Friuli, antiquarium of Castelseprio, Museum of Santa Giulia in Brescia, National Museum of the Duchy of Spoleto, Diocesan Museum of Benevento, TECUM Museums of Monte Sant’Angelo) the Temple of Campello sul Clitunno, and eight other museums throughout Italy.
Exchanges between museums, temporary exhibitions and cultural support activities are also enhanced by an online virtual exhibition created with MOVIO (www.longobardinvetrina.it) and by a single catalogue, characterising this project as the first exhibition to be held nationwide, conceived as a set of exhibitions on Longobard culture; the largest exhibition in terms of territorial extension and involvement of institutions and historical-archaeological heritage.
Spoleto has focused on the theme of Manual Intelligence: Craft Production and Techniques in the Lombard Period.
Two exhibitions, promoted by the City of Spoleto, will be held at the Museum of the Duchy of Spoleto and at the MuCiv – MAME of Rome.
These exhibitions illustrate the technical-productive knowledge of the Lombards in Italy and identify the processes that led this people to integrate their technical heritage, typical of the Germanic population, with the Roman-Byzantine Mediterranean matrix, in a period of transition between the late ancient period and the early Middle Ages.
The Lombards had a particular “vocation for iron, steel and metallurgy” in line with the high technological level of production processes in the rest of the Germanic world, distinguishing themselves in the production of jewellery, weapons and tools.
To illustrate their craft skills, metal objects found in the necropolises of Nocera Umbra (PG) and Castel Trosino (AP) were selected. These objects were created with different techniques: mould casting, cloisonné, punching, filigree, damascening and niello.
Finally, there is also a brief reference to ceramic production, which shows its own clearly identifiable characteristics.
Opening ceremonies will be held on Thursday, January 24 at 16 in Spoleto and on January 29 at 11:30 in Rome.

The 55th Race of the Vaporetti, a race at breakneck speed through upper Spoleto, will be held from June 14th to June 16th 2019.
The thrilling final of the race will take place on June 16th along the winding streets of the old town.
Vaporetti are small carts on iron wheels, with a team of two, a pusher and a driver. The name comes from a steam-engine coach, the ‘vaporiera’, that from 1902 to 1909 used to serve the Spoleto-Norcia route, the first in Italy.
The race, which takes place along the streets that cross the historic city centre, has established itself as a successful local tradition, attracting every year an increasing number of spoletini and visitors.
Organization: Associazione Corsa dei Vaporetti di Spoleto ASD, in collaboration with AVIS Spoleto.

between innovation and tradition

State Archives – Spoleto Section
Largo G. Ermini
SPOLETO
The exhibition Spoleto 1960, il terzo Festival dei Due Mondi (Spoleto 1960. The third Festival of Two Worlds), curated by the Spoleto Section of the State Archives and open until September 30, 2019, presents archival documents, posters and photographs of the time.
“At the beginning of the ’60s – wrote Giovanni Toscano and Sandro Morichelli – the Festival was already a consolidated reality. Of course there were some difficulties, especially economic ones, but there was a common desire to move forward. One evening, in the town council, the doors were ideally closed: we won’t leave here until we find the money for the Festival. Spoleto was becoming an important point of reference for Italian and international culture and we could not go back.”
The third Festival dei Due Mondi has been the longest in the event’s history (8 June – 10 July 1960), and the final concert in Piazza del Duomo was among those shows that for the first time RAI will decide to broadcast live, along with the opera “The Prince of Homburg” by Hans Werner Henze at the Teatro Nuovo. RAI also chose, for recorded television footage, the opening opera “La Bohème”, broadcast nationwide on June 9 at 21.05, and the “chamber concerts given at Caio Melisso”, also known as aperitif concerts and then “Concerti di Mezzogiorno”, considered the main innovation of that year. The city is committed with all its strength to improve its image and services and, in order to achieve the third edition of the Festival, the City Council of Spoleto unanimously decides a contribution of 2,000,000 lire. In the same way, the role of the local tourist promotion agency turns out to be decisive at that stage. Finally, people of Spoleto living in Rome decide to establish an association of “Amici di Spoleto” (Friends of the Festival), which will later be called “Amici di Spoleto” (Friends of Spoleto).

Opening
Saturday 29 June – 11.00 a.m.
PALAZZO COLLICOLA
Spoleto
Almost twenty years after its inauguration as the seat of the permanent collection of the Galleria d’Arte Moderna in Spoleto, dedicated to the figure of curator and art historian Giovanni Carandente (1920-2009), Palazzo Collicola starts a new chapter under the direction of art critic Marco Tonelli.
The collection was completely redesigned, brought to the second floor of the building and rearranged according to a new museum criterion, and enriched with educational facilities and works.
The starting point of the collection will be the strong presence of modern art in the city of Spoleto, to which some thematic rooms have been dedicated, starting with the one on the 1962 exhibition Sculptures in the city (participated by the most important sculptors of the time), through the various editions of the Spoleto Prize (1953-1968), and works by Pascali, Ceroli, Uncini, Moreni, Turcato, Morlotti, Vacchi, and the Group of 6 from Spoleto.
There is a consistent presence of 30 among sculptures and drawings by Leoncillo, born in Spoleto in 1915, from his initial period to the naturalistic, neo-Cubist and especially informal one, with emblematic works including Affinità patetiche, Pietà or Corpo dolente set up in the long and bright gallery at the second floor of the building.
The itinerary is composed of various rooms displaying works that will be periodically subject to rotation, includes sections dedicated to the Forma 1 group or to the Scuola di San Lorenzo, to abstract art (from Melotti to Biggi, Verna, Bendini and Asdrubali), to figuration (including Ontani, Di Stasio and Barni), with particular attention to works by modern sculptors such as Caro, Chadwick, Arnaldo and Giò Pomodoro, Franchina and Cuschera.
Also important is the presence of works by conceptual artists such as Dibbets, Mochetti, Patella, Garutti and above all Sol Lewitt, who lived in Spoleto and in 2000 created the spectacular walldrawing Band of Color n.951 in Palazzo Collicola.
Alexander Calder (present with mobiles, wire sculptures and gouaches) and Beverly Pepper, especially in light of their relationship with Carandente (to whose donation we owe, among other things, a large part of the collection, that also includes the acquisitions of the Premio Spoleto, and bequests of artists and individuals), have their own sections, which significantly open and close the exhibition.
On the occasion of the re-design, the collection has been enriched with new works, including Gianni Asdrubali, Gastone Biggi, Stefano Di Stasio, Paola Gandolfi, Leoncillo, Francesco Lo Savio, Afranio Metelli, Nunzio, Pizzi Cannella and Francesco Somaini.
The three inner rooms of the Gallery are dedicated to drawings and graphic works by Leoncillo and Burri, by Italian artists (including Guttuso, Melotti, Raphael, Lo Savio, Gnoli, Accardi, Capogrossi) and foreign artists (including David Smith, Chillida, Scarpitta, Moore, Chadwick).
Finally, the nucleus of about 100 photographs by Ugo Mulas taken in 1962 during the exhibition Sculture nella città (Sculptures in the City) is important, works that, due to the delicacy of the supports, will be exhibited following periodic rotations.
SIDE EVENTS
Loris Cecchini: Hypermeasures
The new setting of the Spoleto Modern Art Gallery will be accompanied by two temporary interventions designed specifically for this occasion and for the external and internal spaces of Palazzo Collicola.
The first of the two is Loris Cecchini’s Hypermeasures, a special base in front of the museum entrance with a sculpture built with modules of light metal, while inside the gallery at the Piano Nobile three sculptures made with the same principle of the Alfa Alfa and Waterbones series will be suspended, linking the mechanical and technological naturalness of these ramifications and rhizomatic hyperfetations with the floral motifs of the gallery’s frescoes, typical of the so-called Spoleto baroque of the early XVIII century.
With the support of the Galleria Continua (San Gimignano/Bejing/LesMoulins/Habana)
Bruno Ceccobelli: MarmoriiMarmorei
In the fifteen rooms of the gallery at the Piano Nobile, Bruno Ceccobelli has also created a route consisting of sculptures in marble and stone, a sort of journey entitled MarmoriiMarmorei, which invites visitors to cross the rooms and meditate on the sense of Fortune and its circularity. The very symbolism of the works and the route (with a beginning and a point of return following the same itinerary), the presence of fragmentary sculptures that seem to be finds and discoveries, are proposed as an initiatory journey and clue in search of meanings and truths, which can never be given in an absolute and clear sense, but evocative and spiritual.
With the support of the company “I Sassi” from Assisi.

JAZZ AND BOSSA DUO:
Moreno Romagnoli: Tenor Sax
Angelo Lombardo: Guitar
Programme:
bossanova standards including compositions by A.C. Jobim in jazz style.
Moreno Romagnoli was born in Rome on 25 August, 1964 and is an accomplished sax player and composer. In spite of his jazz roots, he refuses all labels and defines himself a “universal musician”.
After a fellowship at the “Siena Saxophone Course”, in 1992 he attends a perfectioning course in saxophone playing at the BERKLEE SCHOOL OF MUSIC in Boston, Massachussets (U.S.A.) obtaining a diploma.
While touring Brasil in 1994 he discovers Bossanova, in which he specializes while collaborating with its major interpreters internationally.
He has been joining in at a number of jazz- and Latin American music festivals, including the Bossanova Festivals of Thiais (France) and Buenos Aires, Pescara Jazz Festival, Atina Jazz Festival, Barga Jazz Festival, Rome Jazz Festival and many more.
He was featured in many jazz and bossanova CDs by other artists and also issued his own “THE BOSSA PROJECT” (2016) presented by Rai Radio Uno in the broadcast “Brasil”. The cd is a tribute to the best Brazilian composer, A.C. Jobim, revisiting and rearranging some of his best repertoire.
In 2017 he wrote the volume “THE HISTORY OF BOSSANOVA” published by Bertoni Editore (the first such book by an Italian author).

MUSICA AL RIFUGIO è una esperienza unica, in cui lo spettatore si trova avvolto da cure e attenzioni continue sin dal momento del suo ingresso. Un flusso emotivo – trasportato in particolare dalla MUSICA, ma anche da parole, immagini, sapori, dettagli, particolari e sorprese – accarezza il suo animo, arricchendolo e rigenerandolo. E questo fino all’uscita.
MUSICA AL RIFUGIO è una SPA delle emozioni.
In concomitanza con la 62a edizione del Festival dei Due Mondi, SPAZIO MUSICA AL RIFUGIO propone sei eventi in cui i protagonisti saranno Egidio Flamini, con la sua musica e i suoi pensieri, e due artisti con cui condivide linguaggio e sensibilità, il mezzosoprano Elisabetta Pallucchi e l’attore Graziano Sirci.

New setting and exhibitions
Modern Art Gallery “G. Carandente”
Side events
Loris Cecchini
Hypermeasures
Bruno Ceccobelli
MarmoriiMarmorei
curated by Marco Tonelli
Artistic Director at Palazzo Collicola
Opening
Saturday 29 June – 11.00 a.m.
PALAZZO COLLICOLA
Spoleto
Almost twenty years after its inauguration as the seat of the permanent collection of the Galleria d’Arte Moderna in Spoleto, dedicated to the figure of curator and art historian Giovanni Carandente (1920-2009), Palazzo Collicola starts a new chapter under the direction of art critic Marco Tonelli.
The collection was completely redesigned, brought to the second floor of the building and rearranged according to a new museum criterion, and enriched with educational facilities and works.
The starting point of the collection will be the strong presence of modern art in the city of Spoleto, to which some thematic rooms have been dedicated, starting with the one on the 1962 exhibition Sculptures in the city (participated by the most important sculptors of the time), through the various editions of the Spoleto Prize (1953-1968), and works by Pascali, Ceroli, Uncini, Moreni, Turcato, Morlotti, Vacchi, and the Group of 6 from Spoleto.
There is a consistent presence of 30 among sculptures and drawings by Leoncillo, born in Spoleto in 1915, from his initial period to the naturalistic, neo-Cubist and especially informal one, with emblematic works including Affinità patetiche, Pietà or Corpo dolente set up in the long and bright gallery at the second floor of the building.
The itinerary is composed of various rooms displaying works that will be periodically subject to rotation, includes sections dedicated to the Forma 1 group or to the Scuola di San Lorenzo, to abstract art (from Melotti to Biggi, Verna, Bendini and Asdrubali), to figuration (including Ontani, Di Stasio and Barni), with particular attention to works by modern sculptors such as Caro, Chadwick, Arnaldo and Giò Pomodoro, Franchina and Cuschera.
Also important is the presence of works by conceptual artists such as Dibbets, Mochetti, Patella, Garutti and above all Sol Lewitt, who lived in Spoleto and in 2000 created the spectacular walldrawing Band of Color n.951 in Palazzo Collicola.
Alexander Calder (present with mobiles, wire sculptures and gouaches) and Beverly Pepper, especially in light of their relationship with Carandente (to whose donation we owe, among other things, a large part of the collection, that also includes the acquisitions of the Premio Spoleto, and bequests of artists and individuals), have their own sections, which significantly open and close the exhibition.
On the occasion of the re-design, the collection has been enriched with new works, including Gianni Asdrubali, Gastone Biggi, Stefano Di Stasio, Paola Gandolfi, Leoncillo, Francesco Lo Savio, Afranio Metelli, Nunzio, Pizzi Cannella and Francesco Somaini.
The three inner rooms of the Gallery are dedicated to drawings and graphic works by Leoncillo and Burri, by Italian artists (including Guttuso, Melotti, Raphael, Lo Savio, Gnoli, Accardi, Capogrossi) and foreign artists (including David Smith, Chillida, Scarpitta, Moore, Chadwick).
Finally, the nucleus of about 100 photographs by Ugo Mulas taken in 1962 during the exhibition Sculture nella città (Sculptures in the City) is important, works that, due to the delicacy of the supports, will be exhibited following periodic rotations.

Thursday, July 4 at 17:30, at Palazzo Collicola’s piano nobile, the books Leoncillo. Materia radicale 1958-1968 and Piccolo Diario, published by Skira and Galleria dello Scudo, will be presented.
Leoncillo Leonardi, one of the most important sculptors of the twentieth century, was born in Spoleto in 1915 and died in Rome in 1968.
The books are the result of almost two years of work and were published by Skira on the occasion of the anthological exhibition held between December 2018 and April 2019 at Galleria dello Scudo in Verona: Materia Radicale 1958-1968.
The first of the volumes, the real catalogue of the exhibition, the most documented, extensive and exhaustive monograph that has appeared so far on the artist, includes numerous critical interventions and bio-bibliographic texts (including Enrico Mascelloni, Martina Corgnati, Marco Tonelli, Fabio Sargentini, Lorenzo Fiorucci, Laura Lorenzoni, Elena dalla Costa). The second is a precious publication of exceptional scientific and bibliographical interest: the complete, transcribed, revised and annotated anastatic copy of the Piccolo diario, the most important poetic text by Leoncillo.
The presentation of the volumes, introduced by Marco Tonelli, Artistic Director of Palazzo Collicola, includes speeches by the curator of the exhibition Enrico Mascelloni, Fabio Sargentini, owner of the Galleria L’Attico in Rome, who worked with Leoncillo from 1957 to the year of his death, and art critic Lorenzo Fiorucci, who edited an unpublished study on Leoncillo’s correspondence with some of the most successful critics of the time, including Longhi, Arcangeli, Brandi.
After the presentations that took place in May at the Galleria dello Scudo in Verona and L’Attico in Rome, this one in Spoleto, third and final, represents the homage that Leoncillo’s hometown pays to his most famous and worldwide appreciated artist.
The presentation will also be enriched by readings from the Piccolo diario performed by actress Elsa Agalbato.
