"The art was secret, handed down from father to son, secret and jealous just like the art of blowing glass and printing the page"

The secret of Cartiera Magnani is kept in its paper, a material in which people, hands and voices mix, in a soft mixture made of deeply human elements. If history is a narration of the past, a reconstruction of what is no longer, memory is instead an experience of the eternal present. This installation is a work that tries to translate the echo that still resonates in this place, paying homage to collective knowledge and craftsmanship. The boxes, drawers, small spaces retain traces of intimacy, a look at the memory of those women and men who with their hands were the silent creators of our own identity.

The exhibition can be visited on the museum's opening days at a cost of 5 euros.
