Hungarian and Italian Memorial Houses: a shared resource for culture

Hungarian and Italian Memorial Houses: a shared resource for culture
/ Le case della memoria italiane e ungheresi: una risorsa condivisa per la cultura
/ Magyar és olasz emlékházak: kultúráink közös kincse,

 

The theme of the exhibition is the network of Italian house-museums of famous people which now has 57 homes in 10 Italian regions. The Hungarian colleagues have chosen 17 historic house museums in their country that are part of their Hungarian Literary Memorial Houses Association. The project stems from the relations of friendship and international cooperation that were born in the context of ICOM (International Council of Museums), and in particular the thematic Committee ICLM (International Committee for Literary Museums and Composers). The exhibition is made from a collaboration between the National Historic Homes Association “Associazione Nazionale Case della Memoria, the Pet‘fi Literary Museum in Budapest and the Hungarian Literary Memorial Houses Association. The exhibition is edited jointly by Adriano Rigoli, President of National Historic Homes Association “Associazione Nazionale Case della Memoria”, and Csilla E. Csorba, General Director of the Pet‘fi Literary Museum of Budapest.
