Time Matters
[Maddalena Delli]

Time seems the leitmotiv underlying many of the exhibitions which are held in Florence across the late Summer and early Fall this year. In fact two of them - one at the Archaeological Museum in Via della Colonna, the other one organized by the University at Palazzo Pazzi-Ammannati in Borgo degli Albizi) explicitly mention "time" in their titles. The former concentrates on how man has contrived to measure time, matter and space in different eras and cultures, while the second one focuses on the relationship between time and nature and how the environment changes as a result of natural phenomena.

"Secret Rooms - Vanished Rooms" at Palazzo Medici Riccardi tries to recover the long-lost memory of a Medici museum that the palace housed for a short time in the early 20th century, while "Orizzonti" at Forte Belvedere tries to bridge the gap of time by establishing a relationship between the classical skyline of the Renaissance city and the modern shapes created by a number of contemporary artists.
