Saturday 15 February 2025 at 3:00 pm at the Sala degli Affreschi of the Accademia Tadini the series of conferences continues as part of the project “Accademia Tadini: an open museum” funded by Fondazione Cariplo.

The museum, you have to go there at least once in your life… so said a character in a novel by Emile Zola, a famous French writer. But many, too many people still remain distant from this place of wonder, discovery, stories. The reasons do not start from the works or the entrance doors, but arise from prejudices, unassailable reasons, difficulties, obstacles that hinder the road that leads from your home to the museum. The meeting, conceived in a dialogic and also slightly light-hearted tone, aims to activate a discussion with the public to address the problem and build possible solutions.

Giovanna Brambilla is an art historian with a passion for museums and heritage education. She has dedicated her career to making art accessible to all, creating unique experiences for visitors of all ages and backgrounds. With a long experience at GAMeC in Bergamo, she has developed innovative programs to engage the public and build bridges between art and community. Today, as a freelancer, she continues to share her expertise through projects, courses, training sessions and publications, exploring themes such as museums and the public, art and well-being, justice, the idea of ​​hell, mourning and birth.
Giovanna is also a professor at ITCTS Vittorio Emanuele II, and teaches in some Masters related to art and culture at the Business School of Il Sole240re, the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan, the Cultural Welfare Center – CCW School.
