Exhibitions in Treviso. Treviso will become the capital of art between 2016 and 2017 thanks to a series of exhibitions very different from each other, but that will satisfy all tastes.
From Impressionism masterpieces to paintings by Titian, Rubens and Rembrandt, to paintings by Guttuso, Vedova, Schifano and other contemporary artists who are making Italian art history.

The author of this project, which will involve the whole city of Treviso, is Marco Goldin, who with his own society “Linea d’Ombra” has produced successful exhibitions attracting millions of visitors.
