Nanetti a Roma - a tribute to Fernando Nanetti

Exiled in Tuscany, in the Volterra psychiatric hospital, Fernando Nannetti never stopped hoping he would someday get to see his birthplace again.
Lucienne Peiry instigated this tribute as a way of fulfilling one of his dearest wishes.
 
Dedicated by the Instituto Svizzero in Rome to the Italian Art Brut creator Nanetti, the event will take place on December 4th, from 6:30pm. It will include:

- A talk by Lucienne Peiry (in Italian)
- The screening of the film I Graffiti della mente by Erika Manoni and Pier Nello Manoni (2002, 20 min.9), attended by the filmmakers
- A presentation of the monograph Nannetti, co-published by the Collection de l'Art Brut de Lausanne and Infolio (French, Italian, English).

Also to be presented at this event: Nannetti's writings, as photographed by Pier Nello Manoni, and a facsimile of the building facade carved by the Art Brut creator.
