Museo Licini in Ascoli Piceno Reopens with New Prize and Exhibitions

On March 27, 2021, the Museo Licini in Ascoli Piceno reopened its doors following a revitalization that commenced on February 19 with the launch of Roberto Lacarbonara's book. Located in Palazzo Malaspina, the museum showcases updated graphic design by Francesca Petrucci along with various technical enhancements. This initiative is part of a three-year endeavor to support Ascoli Piceno's aspiration to become the Italian Capital of Culture in 2024. From March 2021 to March 2022, the museum will host four exhibitions, kicking off with a solo exhibition by Marco Ghigi. Additionally, a new award honoring Osvaldo Licini, backed by Fainplast Group, will recognize an Italian painter selected through nominations and jury evaluation, granting the winner a residency and solo exhibition. Established in 1964, the museum houses important works from numerous artists, including Osvaldo Licini.
