In addition to the important cultural and popular contribution in itself, the Exhibition will stimulate a moment of in-depth study on the “minor arts”, with the intention of bringing them ever closer to our everyday life, thus breaking away from the traditional canons of other Exhibition-Markets.<\/p>\n
The ARTIGIANATO E PALAZZO Exhibition was mainly born from the idea of re-evaluating and reframing the figure of the craftsman and his work in our times, considering it a high expression of quality and technique, linked to the client, but insisting on the idea of a craftsmanship that is ‘modern’ by nature, without forgetting the fundamental element of tradition. There was also a desire to emphasise the strong social relevance of the craftsman of the past whose workshop often thrived around the palace, understood as a ‘showcase’ and a place for experimentation, in continuous exchange with patrons of all classes, benefiting from a direct relationship with the population and tradition as the holder of social aesthetics. Also for this 14th edition, we start from the idea that in the handicraft, creation never ends and each work is not equal to another. And speaking of ‘handmade’ (from the Latin ‘manu facere’: to make with the hands), the exhibitors at ARTIGIANATO E PALAZZO are once again called upon to demonstrate live the various working techniques in which they excel.
\nThe Palazzo Corsini sul Prato, commissioned to Bernardo Buontalenti at the end of the 16th century, hides one of the most interesting Italian gardens in Florence, designed and created by Gherardo Silvani, with a wide central avenue adorned with statues of degrading sizes to accentuate the perspective effect, flower beds, box hedges, bases for lemon basins and its spacious and luminous Limonaie (lemon houses) that rise up behind the boundary wall that delimits the garden on Via della Scala, from where they have their entrance.<\/p>\n
2008 PROGRAMME:<\/strong><\/p>\n Thursday 15 May<\/strong> Friday 16th<\/strong> Saturday 17th<\/strong> Sunday 18th<\/strong> With the ARTIGIANATO E PALAZZO project we hope, by bringing together an increasingly large group of master craftsmen from all over Italy, to catalyse the attention of a vast and attentive public on these debated topics, hoping for a lively interest on the part of the parties involved: the craftsmen and their clients.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”center” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”50″ padding_bottom=”50″ css=”.vc_custom_1679136082242{padding-top: 64px !important;padding-bottom: 64px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column]Catalogue<\/i><\/a>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row css_animation=”” row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”yes” type=”full_width” angled_section=”no” text_align=”left” background_image_as_pattern=”without_pattern” padding_top=”20″ css=”.vc_custom_1679149935730{padding-top: 64px !important;padding-bottom: 64px !important;}” z_index=””][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”15436″ img_size=”full” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=”element_from_bottom” transition_delay=”1.3″][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”50″ down=”0″][vc_column_text] XIV Edition 16\/17\/18 May 2008 [\/vc_column_text][vc_separator type=”transparent” up=”20″ down=”0″][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1681633439997{padding-right: 18% !important;padding-left: 18% !important;}”]Like the previous editions of ARTIGIANATO E PALAZZO craft…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"full_width.php","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25084"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25084"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25084\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25087,"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/25084\/revisions\/25087"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.artigianatoepalazzo.it\/0ld22\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25084"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
