The Poldi Pezzoli Podcast
20 noveMber 2023
The title of the new Poldi Pezzoli podcast is “Scrigno. Little Stories of Masterpieces”: four sound paths to tell about some of the most iconic objects housed at the Museum.
The Poldi Pezzoli Museum began as a gift from Gian Giacomo Poldi Pezzoli to the city of Milan. Poldi’s idea quickly became contagious and so over the years many others have donated works of various kinds and formats to the Museum. The stories to be told about them are many and often intertwined, in common they always have a constructive attitude toward the community, an appreciation for the work of art and a taste for beauty and wonder.
A path to identify with the giver or the receiver, constructing one’s own ideal gift, or staging a “role play.” A chance to learn about the collection in a different way and re-examine to the value of my-your-own for the younger ones, a chance to study what is meant by heritage and the legislation of cultural heritage for the older ones, bringing our creativity into play for the younger ones and exercising our problem solving and public speaking skills for the older ones.
