The non-profit Canova Foundation manages the Museo Gypsotheca Antonio Canova in Possagno. Once, the Foundation had more social and assistance roles, today, it mainly carries out cultural activities aimed at the conservation of Canovian works (like preservation, restoration etc…), and maintaining the memory of the artist alive (through exhibits, conferences, guides, publications etc…).
The members of the Boards of Directors are nominated by order of the Mayor by the Mayor of Possagno and hold office for the duration of the city council (typically 5 years) and carry out the job free of charge.
Backstory
The Museum was built between 1832 and 1836 when Canova’s pieces (plaster, terracotta, wax and marble sculptures, and oil on canvas) were moved from the artist’s Roman studio to Possagno, and housed in the Gypsotheca, that architect Francesco Lazzari had just finished building in the garden of Canova’s home.
Try to imagine a log convoy of carriages and ships full of plasters, marbles and paintings arriving in the small town of Possagno all the wat from Rome. It was an adventure that for that time and the means of transportation available was incredible. Director of this mighty operation was bishop Giovanni Battista Sartori (1775-1858), Canova’s stepbrother and only heir.
To preserve and protect the art pieces and buildings, Sartori named a curator-guardian of the Museum (the first was Tonin Pasino, a sculptor from Possagno, to be followed by Stefano Serafin, Siro Serafin and Settimo Manera, all of them lived in a part of Canova’s house).
In 1853 Sartori decided to establish the “Lascito Fondazione Canova (IPAB)”, an organization that still to this day manages and preserves all the historical and artistic assets bequeathed by Sartori to the Community of Possagno. The “Lascito Fondazione Canova (IPAB)” has a statute that dates to the end of the nineteenth century and was continuously updated based on the laws in force and the needs of the Canovian heritage.
With decree n.230 of 29.2.2005 by the Regional Manager of the Department of Social Services, the LASCITO FONDAZIONE CANOVA (IPAB), was dissolved and the assets partly donated to the Municipality of Possagno (real estate and movable property of historic and artistic interest) and partly to the new “Fondazione Canova onlus” (real estate and mobile assets not of historic and artistic interest).
