MOSTRE E CONVEGNI
Mostra storica "Maria Bergamas, per tutte le madri, per tutti i figli"
20 May 2023
Position: Casa della Musica, Piazza Biagio Marin, 2, Grado
Il Gruppo Archeologico Aquileiese, nell'anno 2021-2022, ha ritenuto proprio dovere realizzare un'esposizione dedicata alla figura di Maria Bergamas, prescelta per un compito che avrebbe intimorito uomini ben più abituati a stare al centro dell'attenzione di un vasto e autorevole pubblico e che Ella invece interpretò facendo emergere il dolore più autentico e ancestrale: sopravvivere a un figlio. Così Maria Bergamas ha travalicato le epoche ed è assurta a interprete delle sofferenze di tutte le madri che hanno perso un figlio.
ORARI di APERTURA:
- Da lunedì a venerdì: 19.00 - 22.00
- Sabato e domenica e il 2 giugno: 10.00 - 12.00 / 19.00 - 22.00
Nelle seguenti giornate, sarà possibile vistare la mostra con una guida gratuita: 27 maggio; 3,10, 17 e 24 giugno. Nelle altre giornate, le visite guidate vengono effettuate per gruppi di almeno 10 persone.
