History

edit

Spazio Ilisso opened to the public on the 14 of December 2019.[1][2][3][4] Is located in the architectonic complex of the old Papandrea House, an Art Deco-style villa, adapted for the new function after a long and detailed philological restoration. This architectural complex contains an internal part for exhibitions and an external one, thanks to the presence of a courtyard already used for the placing of sculptures by Sardinian artists.

Since December 2019 it has hosted a photo exhibition by Marianne Sin-Pfältzer, German photographer and designer of which the Ilisso publishing house, that manages the museum structure, manages the photographic archive,.[1][2][3][4] and who has worked a lot in Sardinia, also spending the last years of her life in Nuoro.[5][6][7][8][9] On one of its floors and in the internal courtyard it hosts, from 7 July 2021, a permanent exhibition on the most important Sardinian sculptors of the twentieth century.
