“ABBRACCIA LA LOGGIA DEL BUONTALENTI”

TO HELP RESTORE THE UNMISTAKABLE SYMBOL OF THE EVENT

The Associazione Giardino Corsini organizes every year from 2018 a fundraising campaign to promote the study, knowledge, and restoration of a little-known cultural reality of the area, aimed at individuals and companies.

The 2023/2024 fundraising campaign titled “Embrace the Buontalenti Loggia” will contribute to the restoration of the monumental Buontalenti Loggia at Palazzo Corsini in Florence that Bernardo Buontalenti built in 1591 along with the complex hydraulic system to conduct water to the fountains in the Renaissance Garden.

As per the project already approved by the Superintendency, diagnostic surveys are underway prior to commencement of the restoration and conservative work on the Loggia, the Fountain and the overhead terrace.

At ARTIGIANATO E PALAZZO, the Loggia del Buontalenti has always been a meeting point: the “agorà” for craftsmen, visitors, authorities and institutions But that’s not all; in recent years it has been the stage reserved for artists, selected for their talent and generosity, who have the opportunity to exhibit in an extraordinary scenario where ancient and contemporary combine.

Once the work has been completed, the Corsini Garden will be accessible for free to the public – as per the indications set out in an agreement to be stipulated at a later date with the relevant bodies.- and all individuals who contributed to the restoration will be remembered in a special plaque posted under the Loggia itself.

In support of the “Embrace the Buontalenti Loggia” campaign, organizers called upon Anglo-Norwegian artist Magnus Gjoen, who has created a limited, collectible series of “snowballs” inspired by late Renaissance and Baroque styles.
All donations received for the works will go towards the fundraising initiative.
