Immagine mostra

A rhythmic sequence of ironic, funny, bizarre, paradoxical, amusing and surprising homes emerges from the pages of a book, Case Così, to become an exhibition. Antonella Abbatiello, one of Italy's best-known children's authors, accompanies the young and the less young alike on a journey of exploration amid real and imaginary houses, following a thread of emotion and fantasy. Homes in Books, Homes Among Books is the title of the exhibition held amid the shelves of the bookstore. Alongside original plates created for her album Case Così, Antonella Abbatiello will also be showing a purpose-built installation at this exhibition and offering visitors a personal selection of books that talk about homes.

CASE COSÌ is a book written and illustrated by Antonella Abbatiello for Donzelli Editore.
