Takashi and Augusta Shimura

The reorganisation of the Opera House’s collection that was envisaged and supervised by Amici della Scala could not have happened without first going through a restoration phase, which then also became the subject of exhibitions. The documentation related to the designs made by the De Chirico brothers during the Fifties was reorganised by Takashi (whose notes of thanks can be read here, along with a letter dated 1988-89) and Augusta Shimura. In the pictures, Shimura is with Alberto Saibene and Isabella Marelli.
