Eleonora Duse and other anniversaries

From 5 March to 9 April, 2024
Venice, Carlo Goldoni’s House

Curated by Maria Ida Biggi and Piermario Vescovo
In collaboration with Istituto Internazionale per la Ricerca Teatrale

To mark the 100th anniversary of Eleonora Duse’s death, the Carlo Goldoni Museum House, with the Istituto Internazionale per la Ricerca Teatrale, is organising encounters and initiatives to explore not only specific themes but above all stress important transversal connections.

Firstly, from 5 March 2024, an exhibition of panels will present the distinctive achievement of a revolutionary artist, whose work is a landmark in the theatre of her time as well as Italian culture in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It will be based on documents in the Duse Archive of the Istituto per il Teatro della Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice.
