Rome lovers and arts afficionados rejoice! In an effort to restore and showcase ancient artifacts stored in the warehouses of numerous Italian museums, the Italian Ministry of Culture, the non-profit association LoveItaly and the Lazio Hotel Federation have launched a new initiative entitled Art Out of the Museum (Arte Fuori del Museo).
The National Roman Museum (Museo Nazionale Romano) and Bettoja Hotels, a family-run enterprise, are collaborating on the first pilot program at Bettoja’s flagship property Hotel Mediterraneo located in Rome’s historic center.
According to Gennaro Sangiuliano, the former Italian Minister of Culture, 90 percent of Italy’s artistic heritage is held in storage at state museums, simply because of space constraints, or because the objects need to be restored before they can be shown and the museums lack the funding to complete the work.
