During the weekends of November 8-9 and 15-16, it will be possible to immerse yourself in the works of art at the Museum of Dolomitic Masks in Borgo Piave.
In the fifteenth-century setting of Palazzo Secco is a picturesque collection of dolomitic masks from Comelico Superiore, the Biois Valley, Rocca Pietore, and Cadore. The works faithfully reproduce the most characteristic figures from popular parades: from the Gnaga of Fornesighe to the Rollate of Sappada, and the Om Selvarech of Rivamonte Agordino. Next to the wooden masks, about thirty faces carved by various renowned sculptors from Belluno, linked to the theme of the mask and the myths of the area, will be displayed.
"A Mountain Island - Meeting Between Ritual Masks of Sardinia and the Dolomites"
Inside the Museum, it will be possible to visit a room, normally not open to the public, where the dolomitic ritual masks will be seen on one wall, and opposite, the Sardinian ritual masks of the Mamuthones and Boes, made of wood, and the Su Bundhu made of cork.
All the displayed pieces are always part of the collection of Gianluigi Secco.
The exhibition is sponsored by the Circolo dei Sardi di Belluno.
