The Centro Studi and Archivio della Comunicazione (CSAC) is a research center of the University of Parma aimed at establishing a collection of art, photographs, architectural drawings, design, fashion and graphics, and at organizing numerous exhibitions and publication of catalogs. Since 2007 it has been based at the Abbey of Valserena, also known as the “Certosa di Paradigna”, a few kilometers from Parma; it is currently structured in five sections - Art, Photography, Media, Design, Entertainment. The CSAC shows the panorama of post-World War II Italian artistic culture: realism with Renato Guttuso, abstraction with Carla Accardi, Emilio Scanavino, Mario Radice, Nicola Carrino, informal by Giuseppe Santomaso and Arnaldo Pomodoro, poor art with Mario Ceroli, Alighiero Boetti's conceptual, to name but a few. The uninterrupted progress of acquisitions has led the Art Section to have over 1,700 paintings, 300 sculptures, 17,000 drawings and a substantial bibliography and documentation linked to many funds, fundamental tools for study, teaching and research. The Photographic section plays a central role in the CSAC collection, currently consisting of over 300 collections, more than 9,000,000 images, from 1840 to today.
