    PARMA MANUFACTURERS’ ASSOCIATION www.upi.pr.it Parma and its enterprises October 2020 1 Preface Parma Manufacturers’ Association is pleased to offer this study whose purpose is to provide an up-to-date source of information for public and private institutions and organizations specifically interested in issues and questions related to industrial development in our province. More specifically, the aim of “Parma e le sue imprese” (Parma and its Enterprises) is to provide an overview of industrial activity in our province, focusing on the wide variety of manufacturing and service sectors and the specialized activity thereof. In fact, even if the core of Parma’s manufacturing tradition is to be found in the production and processing of agricultural products –Parma ham and parmesan cheese that have made it known around the world are good examples of this – there are many other sectors, some connected to this core activity and others not, which have contributed to make our productive capacity one of the most important in Italy today, fully capable of meeting the needs of our modern world and an increasingly globally-oriented future. Special thanks go to the Studies and Research Department for their tireless efforts in the preparation of this study.

    CONTEMPORARY ASSIGNMENTS Third Show to Open in Rome Hans Op de Beeck In Silent Conversation with Correggio Made possible by the Borghese Gallery, MAXXI and UniCredit Group Rome, Uccelliera di Villa Borghese May 29 to October 4, 2009 Press release (April 24, 2009) – Following the successful exhibitions of vedovamazzei in conjunction with Raphael (2007) and Giulio Paolini with Canova (2008), this year the Borghese Gallery is featuring Belgian artist Hans Op de Beeck reflecting on the work of Correggio. The show is structured as a silent conversation with Correggio and forms a part of the Contemporary Assignments project (Committenze Contemporanee), which invites the public to explore the great wealth of the Borghese Gallery’s collection. Launched on the tenth anniversary of the gallery’s reopening, Contemporary Assignments is part of the Ten Great Shows series of programs (Dieci Grandi Mostre). Accordingly, it consists of ten exhibitions, each highlighting a great artist whose work is prominent in the gallery’s historic collection, including Correggio, Titian, Bernini and Caravaggio. The program intensifies the experience of viewing these masterpieces by incorporating the perspectives of contemporary artists. This approach facilitates a fresh perspective on historic artworks, while simultaneously promoting the work and broadening the audience of today’s artists. The works created for the program are commissioned by the Borghese Gallery in cooperation with MAXXI the National Museum of 21st Century Arts, and UniCredit & Art, UniCredit Group’s pan-European project to promote artistic creativity and the dissemination of contemporary languages. In the framework of this innovative partnership between public institutions and the private sector, a joint commission annually selects an artist to be featured in Contemporary Assignments.
