The art history course "Sentieri dell'arte" returns, promoted by the Municipality of Montemurlo in collaboration with the Fondazione CDSE. This year's edition, titled "Sguardi d'Oriente. Exoticism in painting between the 19th century and the Avant-garde", explores how Eastern art influenced European and Italian painting, with a particular focus on the local area. The series consists of three free appointments, curated by art historian Alessia Cecconi, which will take place on Wednesday evenings at the Biblioteca Bartolomeo Della Fonte. Participation is free but with mandatory reservation.
