Lake Garda Jubilee Art Exhibition Showcases Local Heritage and Artists

On Sunday at noon, the traveling art exhibition “Lake Garda and the Jubilee” will be inaugurated in the parish chancel. The initiative, which pays tribute to the cultural, architectural, and spiritual heritage of the lakeside towns and the inland areas of Garda, is promoted by the Department of Culture in collaboration with the tourism promotion company Riviera degli Olivi, the Triveneto ecclesiastical committee for the Jubilee, the Region, the Province, and the family of the Garda painter Lodovico Morando, to whom the exhibition is dedicated.

The artists exhibiting in this collective show are Guerrino Bardeggia, Ivano Belloni, Mario Bettazzi, Marco Camporese, Mario Cecchele, Luciano Cenghialta, Renzo Codognotto, Marcello Colusso, Gelindo Crivellato, Giuseppe Donolato, Umberto Faini, Antonio Fiorini, Elvio Mainardi, Luciano Olioso, Gianfranco Pogni, Luciano Pollini, Willy Pontin, Albino Reggiori, Antonio Sgarbossa, and Alberto Venditti.

Themes and Represented Areas

Each of these artists drew inspiration from a work of their homeland. The Garda area itself, a region renowned not only for its landscapes and environment but also for its architectural and tourist attractions, thanks to numerous religious monuments, will be the primary focus of this initiative.

Curators and Significant Works

The artistic director of the exhibition is painter Giuseppe Siccardi. One of his canvases, depicting the Jubilee sanctuary of Madonna della Corona, is exhibited at the International Nativity Museum of Bethlehem, which was visited by the Pope on March 22nd of last year.
