Nano before Nano: 82 cartoons by Silvano Campeggi for 'La Carrozzella' (1945-46)
Museo GEO, Pontassieve
Organised by Archivio Silvano Campeggi
Only if the date changes, and two days before. No annoying notifications.
From 21 November 2026 to 17 January 2027, the Museo GEO in Pontassieve hosts the exhibition "Nano prima di Nano", dedicated to the early cartoons of Silvano Campeggi, the poster artist who, before his film posters, wittily portrayed post-war Italy. On display is a previously unpublished group of 82 ink drawings, made by a Campeggi barely twenty years old between 1945 and 1946 for the Florentine weekly La Carrozzella. The cartoons were rediscovered thanks to research conducted by Filippo Neri between the Biblioteca Marucelliana and the Nazionale in Florence. The exhibition is organised by the Archivio Silvano Campeggi together with the Municipalities of Pontassieve and Bagno a Ripoli and the Fondazione CR Firenze.
Opening time: 17:00 Inauguration on Saturday 21 November: at 17:00 presentation in the Sala del Consiglio of the Palazzo Comunale in Pontassieve, at 18:00 ribbon cutting and opening of the exhibition at the Museo GEO. Exhibition open from 21 November 2026 to 17 January 2027 at the Museo GEO in Pontassieve.
