«L'Italia delle meraviglie. Una cartografia del cuore» is the essay by Vittorio Sgarbi, published by Bompiani in hardcover (360 pages, in Italian).
Vittorio Sgarbi proposes an intimate journey through the art of Italy, combining celebrated works with little-known discoveries: wood carvings from Cerveno, photographs by Ugo Pellis, illuminated codices and Leopardian manuscripts in Visso. The book invites each reader to trace their own cartography of the heart.
It belongs to the Saggi Bompiani collection. The first edition was published in 2009 and includes indexes at the end.
For readers interested in Italian art, cultural criticism and personal journeys through the country's heritage.
Vittorio Umberto Antonio Maria Sgarbi is an Italian art critic, art historian, writer, politician, cultural commentator, and television personality. He is president of the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Trento and Rovereto. Appointed curator of the Italian Pavilion at the 2011 Venice Biennale, Sgarbi is also a columnist for il Giornale and works as an art critic for Panorama and IO Donna. A popular eclectic and mediatic phenomenon, Sgarbi is well known for his glib, verbal aggressiveness, and insults, which often led to libels.
