From 2 February to 20 August, the Museum of Palazzo Mocenigo - Study Center of the History of Fabrics, Costumes and Perfumes, offers “ Tramalogie. The Donation of Anna Moro-Lin ”, exhibition curated by Chiara Squarcina, promoted by the Municipality of Venice – Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia, just over two years after the artist's death.


Lidense, but Ligurian of origin, Anna Moro-Lin was among the great protagonists of Fiber Art , the Textile Art that developed starting from the twentieth century thanks also to the French artist Jean Lurçat, who refers to the tapestry. As early as 1920, the Bauhaus experimented with the use of fibers and materials such as artificial silk, metal, cellophane and chenille in the discipline of weaving, all trends that gave rise, thirty years later, to true Fiber Art and own. However, the actual creative boom was in the 60s/70s when this art form reached its highest and most diverse forms of expression. On June 23, 2020, Anna Moro-Lin donated a nucleus of 20 of her works to the City of Venice, allocating them to the Museum of Palazzo Mocenigo , the Study Center for the History of Fabrics, Costumes and Perfumes.


The itinerary winds through twenty rooms on the first noble floor, doubling the exhibition areas opened in 1985. A new section dedicated to perfume has also been created with five dedicated rooms, where multimedia tools and sensory experiences alternate in a path of information, emotion , deepening. The environment as a whole evokes various aspects of the life and activities of the Venetian aristocracy between the 17th and 18th centuries, and is populated by mannequins wearing precious antique clothes and accessories belonging to the Study Center of the History of Fabrics and Costumes (now the of History of Fabrics, Costumes and Perfumes), annexed to the Museum. Fashion and customs, with particular reference to the history of the city, therefore immediately characterize the research and exhibition activity of the Museum, in the environmental context of the Mocenigo noble palace.
