ߏ Homes and studios of the illustrious people of Emilia-Romagna
A precious collection, a miscellany of high craftsmanship and naturalistic artefacts is housed in the Renzo Savini house museum in Bologna.
In the building, an example of modern architecture on three levels, there is the heterogeneous collection that this cultured man, classically trained, born in 1931 and died in 2018, has carried out throughout his life. These are works of art and antiques, but also of common use, which regenerated in bizarre and refined combinations make up an original Wunderkammer, room of wonders. Renaissance bas-reliefs set in the walls, polychrome wooden sculptures, theatrical scenographies, Baroque nativity statues, terracotta of the Emilian school of the eighteenth century dialogue with each other in a path that reveals the love for art.
The Renzo Savini house museum is described in the volume Houses and studies of illustrious people in Emilia-Romagna edited by the Cultural Heritage sector ER.
