The critic and ambassador for the arts: "are a good of the State, not of the
Calabria". Then she says that she will turn to the minister Franceschini to ask
for the opinion of "restorers independent" and replication to Salvatore Settis
THE Bronzi di Riace "are a good of the State and not of the Calabria Region,
much less of the town of Reggio Calabria, then i don't see why that should not
be transported in Milan. It would be as if to move the spring of the Botticelli news we need permission from the Mayor of Florence. They are of the same legal
entity". Vittorio Sgarbi, recently appointed by the Lombardy Region ambassador
for the arts for the Expo, back on its proposal to bring the bronzes in Milan in
2015, on the occasion news of the six months of the Universal Exhibition. THE SURVEY
bronzes in Milan, you are in favor or against it? AND the ago after the opening
of the Minister of Cultural Heritage, Dario Franceschini, who has demonstrated
in this sense news, a "secular availability". In contrast, on the other hand,
continues Sgarbi, "the defense of the parochialism that grazes the superstition
and the rhetoric from pseudoconservatori restoration" of those who were opposed
to the transport of the work. According to the neo ambassador for Expo, "nothing
is easier than transporting them. The limit of risk there is always but there is
nothing that would endanger their integrity". Between 20 and 21 August "i will
write - announces yet - an official news letter to news Franceschini along with Roberto
Maroni to ask that independent restorers assess all of the implications of the
case". In any case, the art critic is to be noted that, since the department has
a top down structure, if the superintendent to the archaeological heritage of
Calabria (Simonetta Bonomi) and otherwise, and the minister favorable, the
transport "it must be done". Just the Bonomi, in reality, they do not like the
idea of the Bronzes in Milan for the Expo for the 'fragility' works, "failed -
supports Sgarbi - to defend the works in his house by the photographs of Gerald
Bruneau". The critic concludes with the example of a work like the Dancing Satyr
"that is of the same age and travels around the world without problems".
Irrepressible on topic, Sgarbi also responds to the art historian Salvatore
Settis and on the pages of Republic, hnews ad expressed doubts about the need to
transfer the two masterpieces, treated as "expensive ornaments". The replica of
Sgarbi does not await: "All we can say - attacks - but not that the two
masterpieces are not symbol of universal civilization, the roots of Greece and
Magna Graecia. And the technology that li has returned in their integrity. All
items that you can synthesize in their news exhibition in front of the world on the
occasion of the World Expo". "As to the desirability, Settis knows - adds the
critical - of them wondered himself for his shows on Magna Greece at the Palazzo
Te, Mantova, disappointed then by a negative response that is not considered to
be justified. I note that today expresses doubts that was not then. AND showed
no cnews oncern to move bronzes equally significant, and even the Efebo of Mozia.
Therefore, your speech today is not technical, but political". AND the
controversy news continues with other reaction from Reggio Calabria with a dirissima
note of Francis Wings and Pasquale Amato, promoters of the Committee for the
development of the Bronzi di Riace and the museo Magna Grecia in Reggio
Calabria. "IT'S a smokescreen - says the note - that put in place by the
minister Franceschini that stated that he had need of external experts from the
ministrynews to know if the Riace Bronzes can travel or less, with it he has
offended and humiliated the scientific reports of the last 40 years compiled by
bureaus news , restorers, experts Enr and Aeneas, which have already decreed the
maximum fragility of the two statues that, in the case of even minimal
movements, are at risk irreversible damage and even destruction. "OR the
minister has already decided, in fact, to move to Milan, the delicate statues -
continues to note - in order to promote a plan that aims only to monetize in
favor of the Lombardia the Expo news abandoning the noon and the rest of Italy, or
rather it is not able to play the role that his mandate requires: heritage but
preserving it from high risk to its destruction."
