<p>Sono una restauratrice, ho avuto la fortuna di frequentare una scuola d&rsquo;eccellenza, l&rsquo;Istituto Centrale del Restauro di Roma, l&igrave; ho imparato che un&rsquo;opera d&rsquo;arte &egrave; un sistema complesso fatto di materia, estetica, storia, ma soprattutto &egrave; appartenenza ad una comunit&agrave;, pi&ugrave; o meno grande, pi&ugrave; o meno affezionata. Un&rsquo;opera d&rsquo;arte, qualunque essa sia, &egrave; il frutto di una o pi&ugrave; menti che l&rsquo;hanno ideata , una o pi&ugrave; mani che l&rsquo;hanno realizzata, molti occhi che l&rsquo;hanno ammirata,&nbsp; molte mani che l&rsquo;hanno conservata per farla arrivare a noi.</p> <p>Vivo e lavoro a Mantova da molti anni e il restauro, non solo &egrave; il mio lavoro, ma anche la mia passione e molta passione ho trovato nelle persone alle quali raccontavo la storia delle opere che andavo restaurando, una storia ritrovata nelle pennellate rimaste, o nei disegni nascosti sotto le calci, o nei pentimenti dell&rsquo;artista che cambiava idea all&rsquo;ultimo momento.</p> <p>Voglio fare qualcosa di concreto, per Mantova, per il Palazzo Ducale e per tutte le persone che si sentiranno coinvolte in quest&rsquo;avventura.</p> <p>La squadra di giovani che mi affianca, ha mostrato lo stesso entusiasmo, la stessa passione, la stessa voglia di fare un&rsquo;azione concreta. Saremo, tutti insieme, tra le &ldquo;mani che hanno conservato&rdquo; e consentito alle generazioni future di apprezzare ancora&nbsp; la bellezza.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>I am a restorer, I had the good fortune to attend a school of excellence, the Central Institute for Restoration in Rome, there I learned that a work of art is a complex system made of matter, aesthetics, history, but above all it is belonging to a community, more or less, more or less loyal. A work of art, whatever it may be, is the result of one or more minds that have created, one or more hands that made it, &nbsp;many eyes have admired it, many hands that have kept to be delivered to us.</p> <p>I live and work in Mantua for many years and the restoration is not only my job but also my passion and I found a lot of passion in the people to whom I told the story of the works that I was restoring, a story brushstrokes found in the left or in the drawings hidden beneath the limes, or regrets that the artist changed his mind at the last moment.</p> <p>I want to do something concrete to Mantua, to the Ducale's Palace and all the people who will feel involved in this adventure.</p> <p>The team of young people by my side, showed the same enthusiasm, the same passion, the same desire to take concrete action. We will, together, between the "hands that have preserved" and allowed future generations to appreciate the beauty still.</p>
