The Correr by Carlo Scarpa. 1953 /1960, Museo Correr, Venice

The exhibition Il Correr di Carlo Scarpa 1953 / 1960, on view from May 1 to October 19, 2025, offers an in-depth look at the architect’s interventions in the Museo Correr. Through archival photographs and original elements such as showcases, supports, and his iconic easels, the exhibition explores Scarpa’s distinctive design language, where craftsmanship and innovation meet. His work combined modernist principles with a deep respect for the museum’s architecture, creating layouts that enhanced both the artworks and the spaces they inhabited. Scarpa's installations, from the 1953 rooms of Venetian history to the 1960 Renaissance painting galleries, reflect his meticulous attention to materials, light, and spatial relationships. His approach allowed for subtle dialogues between works and their environment, often revealing unexpected resonances. This exhibition also serves as a foundation for upcoming restorations at the museum, reaffirming the relevance of Scarpa’s vision in the dialogue between historical heritage and contemporary museography.
