The exhibition is curated by the collector's son and features some 300 works. The collection is divided into five disciplines - modern art, design, photography, archeology and folk art - representing five facets of a single passion. The collection is unique in combining extraordinarily fine paintings with unusual and precious objects, including Pop Art paintings, ceramics by Fontana, silverwork, 18th-century folk art, glassworks by Venini, fashion photographs, prehistoric adzes, and wardrobes by great 19th-century designers.
