The centro studi far

The value of the research

Fondazione Augusto Rancilio has set up a study center at Villa Arconati-FAR that deals with retrieving and cataloging studies and sources related to the FAR collections, the villa and its park.

The Centro Studi FAR intends to promote and enhance the cultural heritage of the Foundation, conducting research internally and supporting the realization of studies also carried out by external subjects. We are available to students and researchers who are interested in carrying out works that concern the Foundation, the villa or its territory by providing material and also hosting internships or traineeships.

Some of the ongoing activities:
  • Celebrations of 500 years after the death of Leonardo da Vinci - studies and exhibit proposals for the 2019 season
  • Valuing the Groane - Conference-proposal for an ecomuseum in collaboration with Acli Bollate-Groane area
  • Castellazzo's crest - recognition and cataloging
  • Stables - study and comparison with Leonardo's works
  • Arconati-Busca book collections - kept at the Foundation (XVII-XIX century)
  • Francesco Podesti - author of monochromes placed inside the villa
  • Study on the Laocoon - nineteenth-century copy kept in the villa
  • Wall decorative implant - attribution hypothesis
