Sebbene il nome "Albertina" si riferisca a Carlo Alberto di Savoia, al quale si deve la decisiva "rifondazione" dell'Accademia nel 1833, le sue origini sono ben più lontane, tanto che l'Accademia di Torino può essere considerata una delle più antiche d'Italia. Negli ultimi anni l'Accademia Albertina si è ulteriormente trasformata e rinnovata, promuovendo numerose iniziative educative e culturali che hanno portato al: riordino e la riapertura al pubblico della Pinacoteca, il restauro dell'edificio e la razionalizzazione degli spazi interni (tuttora in corso), l'intensa attività di mostre, convegni, seminari ed eventi, la massiccia introduzione dell' informatica in Accademia e l'istituzione del nuovo corso sperimentale di Conservazione e Restauro a partire dall'anno scolastico 1997-98. Dal 2019 Paola Gribaudo, la prima donna a diventarne la direttrice, sta lavorando con grande forza e innovazione per farla diventare un irrinunciabile centro di cultura per la città e la nazione. Although the name "Albertina" refers to Carlo Alberto di Savoia, to whom we owe the decisive "re-foundation" of the Academy in 1833, its origins are much more remote, so much so that the Turin Academy can be considered one of the oldest in Italy. In recent years the Accademia Albertina has further transformed and renewed itself, promoting numerous educational and cultural initiatives. In this case, the reorganization and reopening to the public of the Pinacoteca, the restoration of the building and the rationalization of the internal spaces (still in progress), the intense activity of exhibitions, conferences, seminars and events, the massive introduction of the computer science in the Academy and the institution of the new experimental course of Conservation and Restoration starting from the school year 1997-98. Since 2019 Paola Gribaudo, the first woman to become its director, is working with great strength and innovation driving it to become an indispensable center of culture for the city and the nation.

Angelica Sella coltiva fin da ragazzina un forte interesse per la cultura come espressione dell’essere umano nel suo contesto storico e sociale. Dopo una laurea in filosofia e alcune esperienze lavorative in Italia e all’estero, tornata nella sua amata Biella, si dedica con passione alla valorizzazione del patrimonio storico della Fondazione Sella e ne assume il ruolo di presidente. Ente morale fondato nel 1980 dalla sua famiglia e costruito nei decenni successivi da suo padre Lodovico, la Fondazione ha raccolto negli anni un considerevole archivio di memorie di famiglie, enti e imprese, costituito perlopiù da documenti cartacei e fotografici. Al grande lavoro di catalogazione dedicato ai materiali archivistici si è da sempre affiancato l’obiettivo di divulgarne i contenuti. Questo obiettivo sta ora prendendo, attraverso l’accurata opera di Angelica e del suo affiatato team, una forma più attiva e programmatica, una forma effettiva di heritage telling a beneficio del territorio e della comunità. La visione di fondo è che il futuro ha radici antiche: fare storia non significa solo guardare a ciò che è stato ma ragionare sulle dinamiche della vita sociale, economica, culturale e proprio le fasi di mutamento più intenso hanno maggior bisogno del senso di identità e della consapevolezza che una chiara prospettiva storica può dare.

To be dressed by Alberta Florence is to take a stroll in Rome between the Via Veneto and the Piazza del Popolo in the perfume of a late afternoon in June, losing oneself in an art gallery, a cinema set, a bookshop, or in a poem. Wearing the clothes of the Atelier means realizing the dream of owning a unique object; Alberta Florence is a breath of classical originality in a world that changes, but that never compromises on style. The Atelier, established in 2014, finds its inspiration in the Italy of the 1950s and 60s, a period infused with ferment and magic, and in the soft lines and brilliant colors of the Tuscan landscape. A Bel Paese where nature's verdant profusion of olive groves, woods and luxuriant gardens became the framework for a cultural renaissance in which intense friendships gave birth to artistic movements. Novels such as The Garden of the Finzi Contini and the writings of Natalia Ginzburg and Truman Capote are further seminal influences on the ethos of Alberta Florence, which also derives creative impulse from beautiful and courageous women, the likes of Peggy Guggenheim and Paola Bucarelli, and from legendary painters with powerful personalities such as De Chirico and Guttuso. References to the cinema of the dreamlike visionary Federico Fellini are ever present. The way in which the clothes are cut represents the synthesis of the philosophy and style of Giulia Mondolfi, the heart and soul of the Atelier. Alberta Florence does not follow fashion, but is rather classically contemporary, the constant references to a past elegance always reinterpreted with a modern twist. What emerges is clothing of extreme formal simplicity which is at the same time distinctive, timeless. Giulia adores collecting fabrics which she considers real works of art in their own right, and which she sources mainly in Florence, but also during her travels to Rome, Bologna, Milan and Paris. It is indeed the fabric itself that gives form to her clothes, the prints, colors and patterns of the materials providing her inspiration. Each piece of the collection is unique because it is created from a limited quantity of fabric, and is expertly tailored by hand in Florence. The result is a perfect coming together of fashion, design and skilled craftsmanship. The Atelier Alberta Florence believes strongly in sustainable development, and for this reason has entrusted part of its production to a social cooperative which provides work for disadvantaged young people.
The Great Temple of Abu Simbel, in Nubia near Egypt’s southern border, is among the most awe-inspiring monuments of Egypt. It was cut into the living rock by King Ramesses II (the Great) of the Nineteenth Dynasty, around 1264 BC. The temple is most well known for the four imposing seated colossal statues that dominate its façade. One of these collapsed because of an ancient earthquake, and its fragments can still be seen on the ground. Colossal standing statues of the king line the main hall, leading to the sanctuary where four deities are sat: Amun‑Ra, Ra‑Horakhty, Ptah, and a deified version of Ramesses II. The temple was built with such precision that on two days a year, the 22nd of February and 22nd of October, the sun’s rays enter the temple, cross the main hall, and illuminate the innermost statues. These dates are thought to correspond to the coronation and birthday of Ramesses II. Another rock-cut temple to the north, known as the Small Temple, is dedicated to the goddess Hathor and Ramesses II’s Great Royal Wife, Queen Nefertari. On the façade of the Small Temple, her colossi are the same size as those of her husband, a very rare example of such display. The two temples were moved from their original location in 1968 after the Aswan High Dam was built, which threatened to submerge them. The relocation was completed thanks to an international effort led by UNESCO, and the temple was admitted into the list of World Heritage Sites in 1979.
