Museum of Glances

The Museum of glances in Rimini is dedicated to the ethnological and archaeological cultures of Africa, Oceania and pre-Columbian America and aims to encourage reflection on our relationship with the culture and art of peoples. The museum's collection is the result of the journeys that Delfino Dinz Rialto (1920-1979), Venetian traveler-collector and founder of the museum, made in Africa, Oceania and America. Other works have merged into the museum by the Franciscan Friars, thanks to the collections in the mission land, forming the prestigious Ugo Canepa Pre-Columbian Archaeological Collection of Biella; there is also a small but significant Amazonian collection donated by Bruno Fusconi of Cesena. The materials of these important constituent nuclei are proposed to the visitor using different interpretations, which reflect as many approaches in the way of considering, collecting, "treating" from a museographic point of view and artistically reworking the testimonies of other cultures. Finally, inside the cave of Villa Alvarado, one of the numerous underground cavities that dot the Covignano hill and, more generally, many other places in the Rimini area, a series of statuettes connected with the cult of water have been placed.
