Eighty artworks are now on show in Viareggio from one of the most important group collections in Florence. The complete collection is made up of several individual collections, namely those of: MIAC (Museo Internazionale Arte Contemporanea), GAM (Galleria d’Arte Moderna), RAC (Raccolta Arte Contemporanea), Alberto della Ragione, Chini, Cagli, Basaldella, Saetti and Salvadori.
The reason to host the show in Viareggio was clarified by Mayor Ciro Costagliola: "Viareggio has always been a stage for important cultural-artistic-literary events, and this exhibit helps the city regain that position."
A key figure in creating this collection was Carlo Ludovico Ragghianti, who, shortly after the flood of November 4, 1966, called on all contemporary artists to donate their work to the city, so that the Museo Internationale could be a leader in contemporary art and "worthy of Florence." His call for donations was met with an extraordinary success and continued to grow until the '70's and '80's.
The most interesting collection is that of Raccolta Alberto Della Ragione. The Museo Internazione di Arte Contemporanea (MIAC), has 343 works of art. The Raccolta di Arte Contemporanea (RAC) has about 246 works of art.
The exhibit is set up in a chronological order from 1913-1978, with both paintings and sculptures by artists such as: Baccio Maria Bacci, Afro Basaldella, Mirko Basaldella, Vinicio Berti, Renato Birolli, Floriano Bodini, Gino Bonichi (Scipione), Antonio Bueno, Corrado Cagli, Ennio Calabria, Massimo Campigli, Domenico Cantatore, Arturo Carmassi, Carlo Carrà, Felice Casorati, Mauro Chessa, Galileo Chini, Pietro Consagra, Primo Conti, Antonio Corpora, Giovanni Costetti, Roberto Crippa, Giorgio De Chirico, Filippo De Pisis, Piero Dorazio, Agenore Fabbri, Enzo Faraoni, Pericle Fazzini, Ferruccio Ferrazzi, Salvatore Fiume, Lucio Fontana, Oscar Ghiglia, Emilio Greco, Virgilio Guidi, Renato Guttuso, Giovanni Korompay Carlo Levi, Moses Levy, Riccardo Licata, Osvaldo Licini, Mino Maccari, Alberto Magnelli, Mario Marcucci, Marino Marini, Arturo Martini, Carlo Mattioli, Giuseppe Migneco, Sante Monachesi, Giorgio Morandi, Ennio Morlotti, Fausto Pirandello, Domenico Purificato, Mario Radice, Domenico Rambelli, Mario Reggiani, Manlio Rho, Ottone Rosai, Bruno Saetti, Aldo Salvadori, Giuseppe Santomaso Aligi Sassu, Pio Semeghini, Sepo (Severo Pozzati), Gino Severini, Mario Sironi, Ardengo Soffici, Alberto Sughi, Mario Tozzi, Ernesto Treccani, Giulio Turcato, Giuliano Vangi, Emilio Vedova, Lucio Venna, Luigi Veronesi, Alberto Viani, Giuseppe Viviani, Giuseppe Zigaina, Antonio Zancanaro.
