All free art around the world during quarantine
Uffizi Decameron
Due to Coronavirus emergency, Uffizi Gallery in Florence decided to launch #UffiziDecameron initiative.
Their aim is entertaining people while staying at home.
“Even though museums had to close their doors, art doesn’t stop,” said Uffizi Galleries director Eike Schmidt. “The treasures of the Uffizi, Palazzo Pitti, and the Boboli Gardens will keep you company over these weeks, in which we make common cause against the virus.” Adding: “As in Boccaccio’s masterpiece, every day we will tell the stories, works, characters of our beautiful museums, joining in the name of culture, art and (why not) of leisure. The Uffizi will be with you, in your homes, to overcome the current moment of difficulty all together. We avoid any contagion, except that of beauty.”

All free art during quarantine (for those who speak Italian)
Il museo di San Pietroburgo
Il museo di San Pietroburgo è chiuso dal 18 marzo per le misure di contenimento del Covid-19, ma oggi, 26 marzo, le sale nobili del Palazzo d’Inverno saranno visitabili con uno speciale tour sul web, dedicato all’Italia in questo momento di difficoltà.
“Sarà un evento molto importante per noi”, si legge sulla pagina Instagram del grande museo di San Pietroburgo. “Vorremmo dare una mano ai cittadini dell’Italia, che vive adesso un periodo non facile. Non possiamo prestarvi un aiuto medico o finanziario, ma speriamo di fare almeno qualcosa per abbellire questo momento duro attenuandolo con la bellezza infinita dell’arte. Sono le nostre parole di sostegno morale a tutti gli amici dell’Ermitage in Italia, ai nostri collaboratori del Centro Ermitage-Italia a Venezia e assolutamente a tutti i cittadini italiani. È il nostro modo per dirvi che siamo insieme a voi, anche se virtualmente.”
A condurre questa visita speciale in lingua italiana è la dottoressa Olga Macho, capo del settore per l’Educazione pubblica presso il Museo Statale Ermitage.Articolo tratto da Russia Beyond.
