Starting with the definition of its visual identity, ETT has set up the Villino Favaloro Museum of Photography, promoting the history of photography and combining traditional museum language with digital and interactive technology
Technology dialogues with the exhibition elements, enhancing the contents for an authentic experience: the mobile guide App accompanies visitors through rooms and transversal themes, panels with QR codes narrate places and characters, enriching the visit with an engaging digital component.
Artificial intelligence, placed in the Exhibit on 19th century cartes de visite, introduces the visitor to a new experiential plane.
The immersive projection dedicated to photography recounts how life and history – private memories – become a shared heritage through the preserved photographic images.
The exhibition makes accessible a careful selection from the historical photographic archive of the Regional Inventory Centre: negatives and positives on plates and film dating from between 1854 and 1970.
Albums belonging to families of the Sicilian aristocracy and upper middle class with which to interact through art walls, interactive touches and reconstructions.
From the mezzanine floor to the first floor, visitors are guided through the origins of photography, the European Grand Tour – which allows users to interact with a digital map of Sicily -, the relationship between photography and painting, up to the collections of the Sicilian photographers Incorpora, Interguglielmi and Bronzetti.
