“Biblioteca Angelica is located in Rome (Italy), in Piazza Sant’ Agnostino, near Piazza Navona. Opened in 1604, it is considered a European example, together with the Biblioteca Ambrosiana of Milan and the Biblioteca Bodleiana of Oxford, as one of the first and clearest examples of a public library library, an institution created with the clear intent of providing access to books to a community of readers as wide as possible.”
Monica Ferrarini, Curator of Art
”In a finite and limited dimension where men (humans) live, enclosed in a materialistic and frantic reality that loses sight of the spiritual dimension, art becomes a medium to open doors to infinity, unraveling new points of view on the world. Art becomes a means of existential and spiritual research, able to go beyond the natural limits through transcendence and is able to go beyond the material, the finite, the immanent.
Hence, art has the ability to express through the finiteness of the work of art an aesthetic beauty that manifests through harmony, intended not only as rigor, order, proportion, but most of all as spiritual harmony. Each artwork, carefully selected, intends to show the pure essence of things, inviting the spectator to go beyond the appearance in order to capture what is "beyond" the imminent. In observing the exhibited works we will be in front of new perspectives, amplifying our perspective ability, discovering interpretative and perceptive channels that too often stay dormant."
