Villa Medici of Quarrata is... Magic

In a green protected area, nestled in the hills of Montalbano in the province of Pistoia, lies the Villa Medici of Quarrata whose name is: The Magic (La Magia.

The beautiful Renaissance palace is located in a park museum where there are works by contemporary artists merged with nature, as in the Micat in Vertice by Fabrizio Corneli (installation of light and shadow on the facade of the limonaia) and The factory memory by Anne and Patrick Poirier (installation sandstone whose shape echoes the ellipse of the brain).

Temporarily exposed works are addes to this permanent collection. Even for a few days is the turn of the garden of marble Hidetoshi Nagasawa. Landed in Italy for the first time in 1967, the Japanese sculptor proposes you an impressive petrified wood, made of columns, exposed until Dec. 30 in the Villa.
