THE FABRIC OF THE BODIES. FROM ANATOMY TO ROBOTICS
The exposition is located on both floors of the Governor Palace, occupying a surface of 1200 squared meters.
Section one (first floor) introduces the evolutionary aspects of animal shapes and anatomies up to the human anatomy and its representations at the end of the 19th century. The extraordinary collection of physiognomy masks by the anatomist Lorenzo Tenchini, a pupil of Cesare Lombroso, is visibile at this floor.
The entire collection of the Tenchini’s masks is available after 110 years from its original manufacturing due to the generosity of the Lombroso’s Museum in Turin, that collects part of the masks since the beginning of the 20th century, and loaned them in full for this event.
