The exceptional exhibition programme presented by the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia for 2013 is complex and varied. The rich schedule envisages no less than 32 events between Temporary Exhibitions and Major Exhibitions, all based on civic collections for the Rediscovered Treasures cycle and the inauguration of new itineraries and exhibition nuclei for the permanent collection. The programme starts in March with an exhibition dedicated to Agatha Ruiz de la Prada (March, 5 - May, 8, 2013) and then moves on to a magnificent retrospective focused on Manet: "Manet. Return to Venice" (April, 24 - August, 18, 2013)  is a unique exhibition designed by the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia with the special collaboration of the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, co-produced with the Sole 24 Ore Cultura – with Commissioners Guy Cogeval and Gabriella Belli, curator Stéphane Guégan and layout designer Daniela Ferretti – to investigate the Italian soul of Édouard Manet’s painting which boldly explores the contemporary situation and paves the way for Impressionism. Alongside the sublime Olympia (1863) by Édouard Manet – a work that has never left France before –the exhibition at Palazzo Ducale will also display the most sensual of the goddesses painted by Titian: the so-called Venus of Urbino, a masterpiece of Renaissance art and a source of inspiration for the great French artist. Between May and June, thirty prestigious works from the Sonnabend collection of New York (from Jasper Johns to Robert Rauschenberg, from Andy Warhol to Richard Serra, and from Jeff Koons to Roy Lichtenstein) will enrich the permanent itinerary of Ca 'Pesaro (From June, 1, 2013). It continues with Anthony Caro at the Correr Museum and Tapies at the Fortuny Museum, and the beautiful glasses by Seguso at the Glass Museum. Not to be missed is another important event in October, when the spotlight will again be on the International Gallery of Modern Art of Ca 'Pesaro for another prestigious event with the art of the late twentieth century and the exceptional personality of Giuseppe Panza di Biumo. "The Panza Collection", promoted by the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia in collaboration with the MOCA in Los Angeles, the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York and The Panza Collection in Lugano, will bring a selection of pop art, minimalist and conceptual art masterpieces to Italy from 5 October 2013 to 12 January 2014.
