Angelo Gabriello Piò, sculptor of nativity scenes
Museo Davia Bargellini, Bologna
Organised by Comune di Bologna - Settore Musei Civici
The Davia Bargellini Museum in Bologna is hosting, on the occasion of the Christmas holidays, an exhibition dedicated to the nativity scene with a focus on the Bolognese sculptor Angelo Gabriello Piò (1690-1770), the greatest exponent of the so-called barocchetto style. In dialogue with the nativity statues from the museum's permanent collection, including the famous 'I due anziani contadini' signed and dated 1721, significant works by the artist are on display, including a wax Holy Family and two terracotta high reliefs with the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Adoration of the Magi. The initiative is promoted by the Municipality of Bologna - Civic Museums Sector.
