From 21 March to 2 June 2024 the San Domenico Museum will host the photographic exhibition "Magic Ayrton Senna / 1994-2024" in the quadriportico. A journey in 94 strictly black and white images, captured by the lens of photographers Angelo Orsi and Mirco Lazzari.

As part of the celebrations of the thirtieth anniversary of the tragic death of Ayrton Senna, the city of Imola wants to remember the great Brazilian champion with a photographic exhibition that presents fragments of his racing activity and his private life to the public... not just the exploits of Senna as a driver , but the person, the man.

Nicknamed Magic (hence the title of the exhibition) he is considered one of the greatest drivers of all time, as well as one of the most representative and iconic figures of Formula 1 and motor racing in general. A complete driver in every aspect, from set-up to tire management, he was able to distinguish himself over the course of his career, above all for his driving in the wet and his speed in qualifying, the latter being a characteristic which allowed him to hold the pole position record ( 65) from 1989 to 2006. Also skilled in city circuits, the Brazilian driver still holds the record for victories on the prestigious Monte Carlo track: six, of which five consecutive between 1989 and 1993 and, overall, with 41 Grand Prix wins . He turns out to be the fifth most successful driver in the history of Formula 1. His career in the top automotive category, which began in 1984 at the wheel of Toleman, was characterized by dualism with the Frenchman Alain Prost, his partner in McLaren in the two-year period 1988-1989. This rivalry is considered one of the most intense and heated in the history of Formula 1, as well as sport in general. He died following injuries sustained in an accident which occurred at the Tamburello curve of the Imola circuit, during the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix.
