The 2008-2009 exhibits completes a cycle that started six years ago, as almost a program challenge, but strategic too, designed to broaden the tourist offer not just in relation with Time, but also with quality. For a 'special' city like Venice it is difficult, and for many seemed impossible, putting together almost all the public and private subjects of the territory with the objective of coordinating and offering a unique tourist and cultural proposal.

The exhibition revolves around the eclectic personality of Carlo Cardazzo, a Venetian patron, collector,
publisher and art dealer. The exhibition highlights the multiplicity of his interests and the extraordinary
way in which he understood and promoted art through innovative cultural strategies. Because of his
interest in the art of the avant-garde, Carlo Cardazzo was without a doubt one of the figures who
foresaw the advancement of contemporary art, along with Peggy Guggenheim, his fellow collector with
whom he shared a passion for many contemporary artists. For this reason, the exhibition not only intend
to offer an artistic and historic perspective of one of the major protagonists of 20th century art. It
intends to build through documents, objects, publications, and works of art, an exhibition which narrates
to the visitor both the artists’ lives and their avant-garde adventures.
