L’infanzia dell’arte

Human beings began using needles 45,000 years ago. Creation was necessary. The last nomads, extinct for one century, transmitted the signs of these primordial tensions intact, on very powerful textile works. The gallery is a reference point for primitive textile arts, presenting rugs and tapestries, the legacy of this genesis.
