Le Scuole / The Schools is the new cultural centre of the historic town of Pieve di Cento (23 km from Bologna), where the old building hosting the elementary schools has been converted into the home of the public library and the pinacoteque. The building was seriously danmaged by the earthquake 6 years ago, but the Municipality managed to restore it and accomplish the goal to give the town a larger seat for the local cultural institutions. The opening is planned for Sept.4,2021.
The museological concept and the storyboard hass been developed by Massimo Negri, while the curatorial side is due to Graziano Campanini and Giorgia Govoni.
Graziano was the soul of this project to which he has been dedicating his energies in the latest few years. Unfortunately, Graziano died on the 20th of August , a few weeks ahead the opening of the new museum, victim of a cruel fate.
