“È Cultura!” returns, the annual event promoted by ABI and ACRI that opens the historic headquarters of banks and banking foundations across Italy for free guided tours. The aim is to offer tens of thousands of citizens, tourists, and enthusiasts the opportunity to visit historic buildings that are usually inaccessible to the public, as they are used as workplaces.
Fondazione CRT has actively participated in the initiative since its very first edition—originally known as “Invito a Palazzo”—by opening the doors of its historic headquarters at Palazzo Perrone.
The guided tour will allow visitors to discover the treasures of the palace, including the Boardroom, the balcony, the Presidents’ Hall, the Hall of Honour, the Steering Committee Room, and the Grand Staircase.
This year’s edition features an important new addition: Fondazione Arte CRT, the art-oriented entity of Fondazione CRT, is celebrating its 25th anniversary with a special exhibition project. The exhibition, curated by Clemente Miccichè and inspired by Malraux’s Musée Imaginaire, will bring a selection of works from its collection into the historic halls of Fondazione CRT. The project creates a dialogue between artists from different eras and disciplines and the baroque history of Palazzo Perrone di San Martino, forging new connections between past and present.
For the first time, there will also be activities specifically designed for children and families, offering younger visitors the chance to discover the “great beauty” of Palazzo Perrone, its history, and its curiosities.
