Description
Experience, dream, tale: Argentovivo is this and more. It’s difficult to give an explanation to something that is a full-fledged immersive journey in ancient culture, an exhibition where experience is knowledge and the dreaming mixes with reality.
A perfect union of tradition and technology, thanks to which the protagonists of the exhibition - twelve coins from the prestigious collection of the Paolo Orsi Archaeological Museum - come to life and take us to discover the great myths of the past. From the metal surface to the digital one, during the exhibition stories of nymphs, heroes, gods and mortals chase each other like illusionistic tricks, finding a new dimension in an epic flavored journey.
These coins full of history open a window on the life of those times, pulling physically the public in the myths and legends that accompany them. An alternative way to narrate mythology thanks to a contemporary language, across the board and poetic, capable of charming visitors of any age.
Now in its second edition, Argentovivo it’s a call to undertake a route that allows one to see first hand past civilizations, enveloping the visitor in history’s coils as an exhibition has never done before.
