SUMMARY:MUST is born: Italy's first Museum of Natural History. Watch the video!
DESCRIPTION:Italy’s first Museum of Natural History is being set up at the University of Parma: MUST.\nA museum that is accessible to all\, with special attention to those with sensory and mobility difficulties\, and which aims to be a great natural history tale along the timeline. Work is ongoing and the opening is scheduled for June 2025. \nOn Tuesday 12 November\, in the Aula Magna of the University\, the presentation of the project was held\, with speeches by the Rector Paolo Martelli\, the Delegate for Museum Activities Donato Antonio Grasso\, the Head of the Area for Relations with Society Riccardo Marini\, the Scientific Director of MUST Davide Persico\, the expert in exhibition valorisation Maria Amarante and Sandrino Luigi Marra\, in charge of the MUST’s soft decolonisation process. Deputy Pro-rector Fabrizio Storti also spoke at the meeting. \nThanks to a PNRR grant from the Ministry of Culture\, a process of complete renovation and rethinking of the University’s Natural History Museum has begun: at the end of this process\, the MUST will be created. \nIn the Museum of Natural History\, located in the University’s main building since the end of the 18th century\, the accessibility of the museum’s holdings was limited by the spatial dispersion of the collections and laboratories over several buildings and several vertical levels\, which particularly penalised visitors with mobility impairments. The new project will make it possible to create a museum organised to be accessible to all and sundry\, with collections also set up to disseminate the principles of biodiversity\, environmental protection and cultural exchange The project is also intended to be a driving force for the museum collections to intersect with debates on sustainability and the role of the scientific community in relation to society. \nThe collections will be integrated in a single location in the University’s main building\, breaking down motor\, cognitive and sensory barriers to allow all audiences to visit independently\, and also enhancing educational activities. The intervention consists of the creation of an independent\, barrier-free access route on two levels: ground floor and first floor. On the ground floor\, a layout will be created along the perimeter corridor\, where materials representative of the collections previously decentralised in various locations will be relocated. On the first floor\, a single entrance will be created\, also signalled by a tactile footpath\, with stairs and a lift suitable for motor and sensory disabled people. Sensory and cognitive accessibility to the collections will be improved by using new display cases of a height suitable for children and wheelchair users\, thus enhancing the quality of the visitor experience for the entire public. Digital explanatory aids will be used. \nIn MUST\, the idea was to describe Natural History through a historiographical chronological path\, represented by the personalities who founded and contributed to the growth and evolution of the Museum. From Father Fourcault\, who will welcome visitors by recounting the time when he started a small collection of natural history exhibits in 1768\, to Duchess Maria Luigia of Austria\, who between 1816 and 1847 did her utmost to increase the collections and who will tell visitors about her love of the natural world: what enabled the original nucleus to be enriched with important exhibits\, considered extremely rare and fascinating at the time\, such as an ostrich specimen\, a kangaroo\, a narwhal tooth\, birds of paradise and the precious San Donnino meteorite (Fidenza\, 1808). Other guides of the museum will be other of its ‘fathers’: from Pellegrino Strobel to Alberto Del Prato and Angelo Andres. \nAt the opening of the tour\, there will be a re-enactment of the wunderkammer\, an exhibition hall ‘of wonders’ whose purpose was to stimulate the amazement of those who crossed its threshold: artefacts and objects of all kinds\, heterogeneous and spectacular\, will occupy all the surfaces of the hall\, the inside of the cupboards and the barrel ceiling\, just as happened in the Scholars’ Palaces from the 16th century onwards. And in closing there will be a new\, modern wunderkammer: a cubic room that will welcome visitors in an astonishing immersive vision of a thousand colours\, in the splendid collection of butterflies and beetles that belonged to Don Boarini and was acquired by the Museum in the 1990s. \nThere will be a section of human anatomy\, with a room dedicated to the work of anatomist Lorenzo Tenchini and his wax masks made on commission by Cesare Lombroso\, a room of comparative anatomy\, an ethnographic section\, and much more\, in a tour that promises to be truly a journey of wonders. \nThe layout will be totally revolutionised compared to the Natural History Museum\, and will be aimed at enhancing the heritage in a totally immersive approach. \nFollow the presentation

SUMMARY:Until 13 June ILIADE#1 CAVALLI by Lenz Foundation at the Veterinary Collection
DESCRIPTION:From Thursday 5 June at 21. 00\, in replication until 13 June\, the spaces of the Veterinary Anatomy Collection of the University of Parma (via del Taglio 8) will host the debut of ILIADE#1 CAVALLI\, the new site-specific performative composition by Maria Federica Maestri and Francesco Pititto\, the first chapter of the anatomical/dramaturgical work on Homer’s Iliad and the central nucleus of the Atlas on Violence\, the artistic project that over the next three years will engage Lenz Fondazione in a reflection on the structures that define the suffering of the human and non-human animal in an analysis of impiety\, the destructive act\, the hero and war. \nPerformed by Tiziana Cappella\, Aldo Rendina\, Sandra Soncini\, Carlotta Spaggiari\, with music by Andrea Azzali\, the site-specific composition will be articulated in three different spaces of the museum\, whose origins date back to 1845\, together with the birth of the Veterinary School\, in which 694 anatomical\, normal and teratological preparations produced in the 19th and 20th centuries are preserved. \nThe artistic direction communicates that no harm was done to animals in the realisation of the performance\, and the work aesthetically expresses the desire to restore dignity to all living things. \nThe creation was realised with the support and collaboration of the University of Parma – Department of Humanities\, Social Sciences and Cultural Enterprises; Department of Veterinary Medical Sciences; University Museum System; MuDes Museo Diffuso delle Scienze – ‘Alessio Lemoigne’ Collection of Veterinary Anatomy of the Department of Veterinary Medical Sciences. \nThe project Atlas on Violence_Anatomies of the Landscape is supported by: Ministry of Culture\, Emilia-Romagna Region\, Municipality of Parma\, Ausl di Parma\, Cariparma Foundation\, Chiesi Farmaceutici. \nNotice to the public:\nSome scenes of the performance may have a strong emotional impact and may shock the sensitivity of the spectator. The performance is itinerant on several floors. A lift will be available for people with mobility difficulties. Due to the limited number of seats\, booking is compulsory. \n  \nILIADE#1 CAVALLI  \nDramaturgy\, imagoturgy Francesco Pititto\nComposition\, installation\, enclosures Maria Federica Maestri\nPerformers Tiziana Cappella\, Sandra Soncini\, Carlotta Spaggiari\, Aldo Rendina\nMusic Andrea Azzali\nProject care Elena Sorbi\nOrganisation Ilaria Stocchi\nLighting design Alice Scartapacchio\nProduction Giulia Mangini\nGraphic design and dissemination Alessandro Conti\nCommunication and press office Giovanna Pavesi \nFor information on performances and bookings\, contact Lenz Fondazione on 0521-270141 and 335 6096220 (also via WhatsApp) and info@lenzfondazione.it \npress release Lenz Fondazione
