ARTISTIC CIRCLE OF VENICE

The Artistic Circle was already founded in 1919 on the initiative of a group of artists, scholars and art lovers promoted by Ilario Neri. This association was approved in 1922 and had the mayor of Venice as honorary president; he wanted to support art in its various forms and imposed the new association to re-establish the “Opera di soccorso” for old and poor artists which was instituted in 1845 by the Society of Fine Artsand can be for this reason considered an Artistic Circle’s ancestor. A relief fund for the destitute artists was created to help the artists and their economic organization in an apolitical manner.

The Royal Superintendence of Monuments in Venicein the name of the General Administrative Department of Fine Arts and the Ministry of Public Education allowed the Prisons’ Palace in recognition of the cultural aims pursued by the association.

The many events that have taken place constitute a long cultural journey that see the revival, in a modern perspective, of many activities and wide-ranging initiatives, with particular attention to the world of youth.
