 The
Museum stands inside the Tower of the Battle, a
sixteenth-century defensive rampart of the old town of
Grottammare.
A permanent exhibition of Fazzini works lays inside the
Museum. Fazzini was born in Grottammare and has been a
world famous sculptor: he is the author of the “Resurrection
of Christ”, the magnificent sculpture that overlooks
the stage of the Paul VI Audience Hall (Nervi Hall) at
the Vatican. That work required seven years to be
finished and from it is possible to find out all the
mainly artistic themes of our “wind-carver”.
 The
exhibition will let you better know Fazzini’s works and
complex personality during his most mature period of
artistic life: a period full of mysticism and natural
sensuality in which the artist had been capable of both
epic exploit and small masterpieces in the space of just
a sheet of paper.
The collection is divided into several thematic
categories in order to simplify your understanding and
it’s composed by bronze sketches (the ‘Resurrection
of Christ’ among all of them), drawings,
lithography, jotters and other valuable objects that
testify the inspiration of the author. |
