Roman high schools transform into museums with Bauhaus-inspired project

The 'Le Ali della Bauhaus' initiative has transformed three Italian art high schools into museums, drawing inspiration from Walter Gropius's 1919 Bauhaus concept. The participating schools are Liceo artistico Enzo Rossi and Liceo artistico Confalonieri – De Chirico in Rome, along with Liceo artistico Michelangelo Buonarroti in Latina. This project, in collaboration with the MAXXI Museum in Rome, features lectures by Camilla Blasi and Pippo Ciorra. Each institution has curated its own exhibition: Michelangelo Buonarroti established a permanent installation; Confalonieri – De Chirico explored memory through 'Frammenti del tempo'; and Enzo Rossi highlighted sculptures by Giovanni Dragoni and Fioravanti Lepore. A performance named 'Connessioni' took place in the Museo etrusco gardens. Led by Rossella Capuano, the project seeks to enhance cultural heritage and will run until the end of the school year.
