Home sweet home America
In collaboration with Massimo Cutò tells the story of Italian migrants journey who, in the early 1900s, embarked for America with large companies - Navigazione Generale Italiana, Lloyd Italiano, Fabre Line, just to name a few. They range from the posters of the elegant fumigating ships sent monthly to the church and municipal offices that advertised the new routes, to the advertisements for Italian products already a symbol of a pioneering “Made in Italy”; from the evocative family photos framed between the two flags to seal integration in the New World, to the ski stool, shoe shine, the humble destiny of many wop (without paper term by which the Italians were called). And then cockades, the dreaded Ellis Island health records that decreed the beginning or the end of the dream and the melancholy music for a distant homeland.Info for Visitors
