Milano. Nike di Samotracia: il restauro del calco storico in collaborazione con la Scuola di Restauro di Botticino

Milano. Nike di Samotracia: il restauro del calco storico in collaborazione con la Scuola di Restauro di Botticino. E' stato presentato nella serata di martedì 30 gennaio 2024, l'accordo stipulato tra Valore Italia - Scuola di Restauro di Botticino e il Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia di Milano, in occasione della presentazione del restauro del calco storico della Nike di Samotracia, conservata all'interno del Padiglione Aeronavale del Museo. La scultura, un calco in gesso a grandezza naturale della rinomata Nike esposta al Museo Louvre di Parigi, è stata restaurata dagli studenti della Scuola di Botticino sotto la supervisione della professoressa Cinzia Parnigoni tra settembre e novembre 2023. Questo progetto segna l'inizio della collaborazione tra il Museo e la scuola di restauro, che proseguirà con interventi su altre opere. Il calco della Nike, una delle più affascinanti testimonianze dell'arte ellenistica, esposto accanto ai più iconici oggetti del mondo della navigazione, fa parte delle collezioni del Museo dal 1964, realizzato verosimilmente qualche anno prima da Cesare Gariboldi, erede delle generazioni di maestri formatori milanesi, da Piero Pierotti a Carlo Campi, le cui opere venivano richieste da Accademie di Belle Arti e Musei italiani e stranieri tra la fine del XIX e l'inizio del XX secolo. La scultura è al centro di studi storico artistici e archivistici, volti ad indagare il ruolo e la storia dell'uso dei calchi nel corso dell'Ottocento e inizio Novecento, che furono per le Accademie delle Belle Arti dell'epoca un importante strumento didattico, e oggi continuano ad essere un intermediario per far conoscere opere di arte in tutto il mondo, anche con funzione museografica. Lo scopo dell'intervento è stato quello di rimuovere i pericoli derivanti dalla sconnessione degli elementi realizzati singolarmente e assemblati, nello specifico delle ali, e conferire una visione estetica più omogenea dell'opera. Con l'occasione sono state anche effettuate analisi scientifiche qualitative per indagare i materiali costitutivi della scultura. La scultura, esposta nel Padiglione Aeronavale, fa parte della collezione del Museo dagli anni 60 del secolo scorso, in seguito a una donazione. L'incontro è stato introdotto dall'Assessore alla Cultura del Comune di Milano Tommaso Sacchi e dalla Deputy Director del Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia Barbara Soresina. "Le collezioni che il Museo conserva e continua ad acquisire costituiscono una risorsa straordinaria per la ricerca e per la formazione, negli ambiti disciplinari più diversi. Anche nelle attività dedicate alla conservazione dei beni, il Museo favorisce collaborazioni che mettano al centro l'approfondimento critico, declinato nelle competenze necessarie per ciascun progetto. Un valore ulteriore che promuoviamo è il confronto intergenerazionale, da cui possono emergere nuove pratiche e conoscenze", ha affermato Laura Ronzon, Direttrice Collezioni del Museo Nazionale Scienza e Tecnologia nell'intervento di apertura. "Siamo estremamente soddisfatti del risultato che è stato raggiunto. Nell'anno del cinquantesimo anniversario della fondazione della Scuola di Botticino è per noi motivo di grande orgoglio poter avviare una solida collaborazione con una delle più importanti e prestigiose Istituzioni museali italiane nel mondo che quotidianamente arricchisce la proposta culturale ed educativa del nostro Paese" è quanto ha affermato Martino Troncatti, Presidente di Valore Italia. Nel corso della serata sono intervenuti Claudio Giorgione, Curatore Leonardo Arte e Scienza del Museo, Marianna Cappellina, Responsabile conservazione e restauro del Museo e Cinzia Parnigoni, Docente della Scuola di Botticino. Alcuni studenti della Scuola di Botticino hanno infine raccontato le operazioni di restauro eseguite sull'opera. Durante l'evento, che si è svolto nel suggestivo salone delle feste del transatlantico Conte Biancamano, è stata esposta l'opera dell'artista Andrea Crespi che ritrae la Nike di Samotracia in veste contemporanea. Mediante la fruizione dell'illusione ottica, linee infinite che non si toccano mai invadono l'opera: passato presente e futuro si fondono mostrando come epoche distanti tra loro possano essere vicine e connesse.... #notizie #news #breakingnews #cronaca #politica #eventi #sport #moda Read the full article

Gli invasori (Erik the Conqueror, 1961)

"No, Garian, I have a far more important reason: to avenge the death of my father and my brother!"

"And to make yourself King?"

"It belongs to me! Do you see this sign? It was on the Viking flags that were planted in Britain. This was the symbol of Harald. He covered it with glory and his blood!"

Thiên Hương — better known as “Tiny Yong” is a French singer associated with the yé-yé scene of the 1950s and ’60s.

She was born Tôn Nữ Thị Thiên Hương on 8 February 1944 in Phnom Penh — the capital of Cambodia since 1865 but then part of French-Indochina. Her father was a doctor and her mother a homemaker; both traced their heritage to Vietnam‘s Dương Dynasty. The family relocated to Saigon and Thiên Hương was schooled at Le Couvent des Oiseaux de Dalat, where she learned English, Spanish, and French. In 1958, the family again relocated, this time to a home on La rue Coustou in Paris‘s 18th arrondissement. There her father continued to practice medicine and her mother opened a Vietnamese restaurant.

In 1960, Thiên Hương performed in Albert Camus‘s Les Justes and Jean Cocteau‘s L’Épouse injustement soupçonnée, staged at La Théâtre de la Tomate. She next appeared in François Campaux‘s Chérie Noire. Meanwhile, her brother helped her secure a job performing Vietnamese and French “chanson à texte” at a cabaret in the 1st arrondissement called La Table du Mandarin. In December, she made her television debut on Aimée Mortimer‘s show A L’École des vedettes. The following February, she returned to the airwaves to mime “Rêve Opératoire.” In March she released her debut recording, the 7″ EP “Le Monde de Suzie Wong,” accompanied by Jacques Loussier et son orchestre, on Caravelle.

In April, Thiên Hương performed “Si tu cherches ta jeunesse” on the music television series, Discorama, a song intended for an EP which ultimately wasn’t released. She also continued performing at La Table du Mandarin, where she was noticed by filmmaker Robert Hossein, who cast her as “L’eurasienne” in Jeu de la vérité (1961).

Her second audio release was “La Prison de Bambou,” a duet with Jean-Philippe, backed by Jack Ledru et son ensemble, and released by the tiny label, Lotus in 1962. It was recorded for the 1962 Piero Pierotti film, L’avventura di un italiano in Cina, in which she also appeared as “Tai-Au.” It was released in the US, dubbed in English, as Marco Polo — and with a Les Baxter score.

In November, she returned to Discorama where she performed “L’Oiseau de paradis” — the theme to Marcel Camus‘s film of the same name. For the performance she was accompanied by Elek Bacsik (a cousin of Django Reinhardt) and Henri Salvador (a Guyanese comedian, singer, and producer who co-owned his own label Disques Salvador with his wife, Jacqueline).

In December, Thiên Hương appeared on another television program, La Tournée des Grands Ducs, this time joined by her sister Bạch Yến, with whom she duetted on “Les Fées du crépuscule.”

Shortly after, Thiên Hương signed a deal with Disques Salvador, where Henri and Jacqueline came up with a new nom de scène, “Tiny Yong.” The couple hoped to fashion her into a rock ‘n’ roller along the lines of Jacky Moulière. Henri Salvador also owned a club, L’Alhambra, where Thiên Hương began singing songs popularized by American girl groups. Her first recording for Disques Salvador was “Tais-Toi Petite Folle” with Christian Chevallier. The A-side was a French language cover of Helen Miller and Howard Greenfield‘s, which had been a big hit for The Shirelles just weeks earlier. The B-side was a French cover of Roy Orbison‘s “In Dreams” titled “En rêve.”

Her next release was the 10″ album, Je Ne Veux Plus T’Aimer, the title track a cover of Goffin And King‘s “I Can’t Stay Mad at You” adapted into French by Hubert Ithier.

For the next few years, Tiny Yong was a regularly featured performer on television, radio, film, and in print ads for companies including Bic and Odilène; all the while releasing 7″ EPs on Disques Salvador and Rigolo (the Salvador’s other label). In March 1964, she performed “Les garçons m’aiment” on the program, Âge tendre et tête de bois, for which she was introduced by Albert Raisner as “la yéyé du pays du sourire” (even though it’s Thailand which is sometimes referred to as “the land of smiles.” In April she appeared as “La chinoise ” in the Henri Decoin film, Les Parias de la gloire. She next performed on Les Raisins verts and twice on La grande farandole.

In 1965, she performed on Entrez dans la ronde, Pirouettes Salvador, and Tête de bois et tendres années.

Yong’s final release on Rigolo was “Mon Futur Et Mon Passé” in 1965. A second appearance on Tête de bois et tendres années — on 27 April 1966 — proved to be her final television performance. Following a disagreement with the Salvadors, she parted ways with them.

Hương appeared as in Nicolas Gessner‘s 1967 film, La blonde de Pékin, in which still credited as “Tiny Yong” she played Yen Hay Sun.

Hương returned to Saigon, in 1968 — the year the Tet Offensive marked a major turn in the Vietnam War. There she resumed performing at cabarets before deciding to retire from public performance. In 1970, she returned to France where she appeared on an episode of Allô police titled “La pantoufle de jade.”

It was also in 1970 that she opened the first of several restaurants — first in Paris, then in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, followed by Pont de Jade in Pont-sur-Yonne, and finally in Montpellier, where she resides today. She married An Nguyên Ngoc and the two had a daughter.

Naturally, Thiên Hương/Tiny Yong’s vinyl catalog is out of print but her music has been thrice compiled by Magic Records on compact disc: La Collection Sixties Des EP’s Français, Tiny Yong – L’integrale 1961/1965, and the two-disc Tiny Yong – L’Intégrale Sixties. In 2017, a duet with Trần Văn Trạch of Nguyễn Văn Đông‘s “Chiều Mưa Biên Giới” was released 57 years after it was recorded.

Bon anniversaire!
