On the occasion of the project Conserving the Future artists are invited to introduce their new works according to the salons and the historical heritage of the Foundation and its collections.
As a result of it, the site-specific exhibitions are related to the salons and the ancient works of the House-Museum of the Querini Stampalia family.
Each exhibition is based on a careful and well aware comparison with the ancient funds of the Fondazione Querini Stampalia, by all artists approaching its heritage with awareness and interest, demonstrating once again to understand its exclusive potentiality that needs to be revealed and valued.
Artists often decide to leave one of their exhibited works to the Fondazione Querini Stampalia. It is becoming a sign of their experience with the institution as well as the authentic proof of the interaction between the past and the present.
