The Museum at VareseMese: watch the video

March 29, 2021

The museum's prospects and digital events: these are just some of the topics of the interview with chiara milani in varesemese 

On March 2, our Elisabetta Cozzi was interviewed by Chiara Milani, director of VareseMese, during the daily appointment "Prospettive" on Rete55.

 And one of the themes of the interview is precisely the prospects of the museum, which has been able to reinvent itself in 2020 despite its two strong points - tourism and events - having suffered a serious setback due to the health emergency.

 The video of the interview is here, but if you can't listen to it right now just below you'll find summarized the most salient moments!

Thanks to Director Milani and VareseMese!

CHIARA MILANI INTERVIEW ELISABETTA COZZI

SOME POINT

minute 01.50 "We are part of the Museocity association which includes over 90 museums in the Metropolitan City and this is already a great honour because there are museums ranging from the Pinacoteca di Brera to the Fondazione Prada to Mudec. Every year Museocity proposes a theme on which the museums have to present something, and this year's theme is "Museums take care of the city".

minute 03.12 "We have brought to light, within our archives, an extraordinary heritage of paper newspapers that my father kept in the 1960s because they contained articles on the presentation of cars, which at the time were city events [...] we have thus realized that having the Legnano newspapers of sixty years ago available today is a way of rediscovering the city".

minute 08.46 "We are pushing digital events, it means that it becomes interesting to be able to propose our location for an event, even if it's just a webinar or a meeting. We've already done some and I have to say that seeing the speaker sitting on a spider instead of in front of a bookcase gives a different effect!"
