Museo Medardo Rosso, Sculpture museum in Barzio, Italy.
The Medardo Rosso Museum occupies a former church from the 1600s, renovated by architect Piero Portaluppi to display sculptures, photographs, and drawings.
After Medardo Rosso's death in 1928, his son Francesco gathered the artworks from studios in Paris and Milan to establish this museum in Barzio.
The museum houses fifty sculptures along with photographs and drawings that demonstrate Rosso's experimental techniques with materials like wax, plaster, and bronze.
The museum requires advance appointments for visits, which can be arranged through email communication with the institution's management.
Each displayed sculpture reveals Rosso's method of creating multiple versions of subjects through different materials, sizes, and color variations.
