In 1860, Vittorio Emanuele II handed the picture gallery over to the State. With the wealth of purchases and donations accumulated over the 19th and 20th centuries, it became one of the most important art collections in Italy, from 1933 named the Galleria Sabauda. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/DJI_0712-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16159\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/DJI_0712-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/DJI_0712-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/DJI_0712-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/DJI_0712-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Photo \u00a9 Musei Reali Torino<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>On the four floors of exhibition space, the visitor can admire works from the 14th to the 20th centuries by Piedmontese, Italian and European artists, and Dutch and Flemish artists in particular.

The room surrounds the installation which looks like a contemporary \u201cruin\u201d. The outer walls are the remains of a modernist architecture inside of which the interior walls and floor are completely covered with the image of a peripheral landscape where nature has swallowed up remains of buildings and past life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the center of the space is a three hundred-page book containing photographs of places that have disappeared or whose identities have been altered, shot over twenty years of work, pictorially modified like the images on the wall. \u201cFor the viewer, the book becomes like a sort of trip\u201d, specify Botto&amp;Bruno. \u201cThe initial images are still sharp and recognizable but, as you leaf through the pages, you realize that the blotches change color and become darker, making the landscape disappear almost completely. The idea was to create a ruin that, almost like a sort of embrace, protected the memory of the places preserved in the book\u201d. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-bb-888x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-16165\" width=\"666\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-bb-888x1024.jpg 888w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-bb-260x300.jpg 260w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-bb-130x150.jpg 130w, https:\/\/italics.art\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/1-bb-768x886.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 666px) 100vw, 666px\" \/><figcaption>Botto&amp;Bruno,<em> The ballad of forgotten places<\/em>, 2018, installation view, Galleria Sabauda, Musei Reali, Turin.
