Villa Mirabello Archaeological Museum - Varese (VA)

included

From Saturday 14.06.2025 to Sunday 19.10.2025

The exhibition Archetypes was born from the drawings and models realised in the 1980s by the students of the Faculty of Architecture in Florence, as part of the courses held by Prof. Giancarlo Cataldi. The aim of the project was to reconstruct the evolutionary processes of living developed by different peoples in response to the characteristics of their environments.

The result is a unique collection in terms of breadth, variety and quality, the result of a careful survey and study of the archetypes of living.

The selection on display dialogues with the temporary exhibition 'Encounters of Distant Worlds'.currently in progress.
