On the occasion of the European Day of Jewish Culture on<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>September 6, 2020,<\/span>the Jewish Museum Lecce presented the exhibition<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>The thred of History<\/span><\/i>, by F. Caputo and M. Grasselli, curated by Ermanno Tedeschi.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
So, what does an artist who sews and paints with cotton and wool thread have in common with an artist who sculpts clay?\n\nThey both shape materials creating art from basic elements, exalting craftmanship by shaping faces, bodies and objects.\n\nMargherita Grasselli\u2019s sculptures appear rigid but they are soft little girls who wear clothes sewn by Federico Caputo. His fabrics become the common thread that connects the two artists and their materials \u2013 so apparently different.\n\nTen embroidered canvases with Jewish themes are displayed at the Museum. The Jewish culture is represented by a wool thread, while another ten little clay girls will be hosted in the courtyards of Palazzo Adorno, Palazzo dei Celestini and in the Museum itself, dialoging with the history of the buildings and of Lecce itself.<\/span><\/div>\n
