About 60,000 everyday objects cover the walls of the Ettore<br />

Guatelli Museum <strong>in</strong> Ozzano Taro. They are arranged <strong>in</strong> simple<br />

geometric patterns, and create a highly evocative visual impact,<br />

through an orig<strong>in</strong>al approach to museography that eschews<br />

realistic <strong>in</strong>tentions.<br />

The museum is the fruit of the collection and arrangement<br />

efforts of its author Ettore Guatelli (1921-2000), who devoted<br />

much of his life to this task. After his death, the Ettore Guatelli<br />

Museum Foundation took over the museum’s management.<br />

This private foundation, which also receives considerable public<br />

fund<strong>in</strong>g, has made it possible to develop and carry out extensive<br />

teach<strong>in</strong>g, research, conservation, and promotion efforts, as well<br />

as visitor services.
