2022 begins with the opening of the Magister Raffaello exhibition at the Palácio das Artes - Clóvis Salgado Foundation in Belo Horizonte. Promoted by the Consulate of Italy, this is the seventh destination in the exhibition world tour, and the second stop in Brazil after the São Paulo last Autumn. Once again Brazil confirms its great interest in Italian culture.

Clóvis Salgado Foundation operates in different fields: visual arts, cinema, dance, classical and popular music, opera and theater, managing both cultural spaces - Palácio das Artes, Câmara Sete - Casa da Fotografia de Minas Gerais, Serraria Souza Pinto – and cultural institutions - the Palácio das Artes Ballet Company, Minas Gerais Lyric Choir, the Minas Gerais Symphony Orchestra, the Humberto Mauro Cinema, the Art Gallery and the Center for Artistic and Technological Training (CEFART).

In this multifaceted and diversified environment, conductors, artistic directors, film makers, theatre/dance/music and visual arts artists, curators, producers, managers, researchers and art students coexist on a daily basis, offering the ideal context in which to approach the art and culture of Italy, with a multicultural mindset.
