🔵🔵🔵 Giuseppe "Bepi" Mazzotti has dedicated his entire life to studying, safeguarding and protecting the landscape. In 1952 I exhibited for the first time in Treviso, at Palazzo dei Trecento, and later in Italy, Austria, Germany, France, England and the United States of America, the photos of the state of abandonment and decay of the Venetian Villas, proclaiming the need for their recovery.
Now in the exceptional framework of Villa Contarini in Piazzola sul Brenta (Padova) until April 21st it will be possible to visit the exhibition "Ville Venete. Giuseppe Mazzotti, a life for the protection of the landscape”, and discover the initiatives carried out then by Mazzotti and, afterwards, by the Foundation that bears his name.
Through posters and photos from the Foundation era, they will tell the expositions that went around the world, starting a public confrontation about the protection and recovery of the Villas.
📍 The exhibition will be open until February 28, every day except Wednesday, from 10am to 4pm; from March 1st, from 9am
