Benno Geiger e la cultura italiana

Venice, Palazzo Cini Gallery at San Vio

64538a707012f5daf32026f83212850e

Present the book Fabrizio Cambi and Nico Stringa. Speakers include Francesco Zambon and Elsa Geiger Ariè.

This book presents material kept in the Giorgio Cini Foundation, mainly previously unpublished and very useful in piecing together Benno Geiger’s role in 20th-century Italian culture. A selection of the most significant letters from his Italian correspondence, transcribed and edited by Tania Eccher, reveal the wealth and intensity of relations between Geiger and major artists, intellectuals, musicians and journalists – figures such as Pascoli, Comisso, Marinetti, Croce, Papini, Ojetti, Valgimigli, Traverso, Valeri, Benelli, Gino Rossi, Malipiero and Gui.
