Notes

The exhibition takes its inspiration from the story of the Andersen family and from Hendrik Christian's World Center of Communication, ultimately taking on the universal theme of Utopia. In the rooms of the house museum, Andrea Mastrovito brings back to life the sculptor Hendrik, his mother Helene, and his painter brother Andreas and his wife, the patron of the arts Olivia Cushing, by evoking their presence in the form of garden replicas of sculptural masterpieces: David, Hebe, Venus and Mercury are turned into allegories of the four members of the family.
