Il percorso espositivo si snoda tra rare e preziose antichità etrusche, greche e romane, strepitosi argenti dei secoli XVI-XVIII e dipinti di Serodine, Petrini e dei protagonisti dell’Ottocento ticinese (Rinaldi, Luigi Rossi, Ernesto Fontana, Galbusera), accompagnando il visitatore alla scoperta del gusto vario e raffinato di Giovanni Züst.

Quinn: Canton Ticino And The Italian Swiss Immigration To California Canton Ticino and the Italian Swiss Immigration to California by Tony Quinn “The southernmost of Switzerland’s twenty-six cantons, the Ticino, may speak Italian, sing Italian, eat Italian, drink Italian and rival any Italian region in scenic beauty—but it isn’t Italy,” so writes author Paul Hofmann1 describing the one Swiss canton where Italian is the required language and the cultural tie is to Italy to the south, not to the rest of Switzerland to the north. Unlike the German and French speaking parts of Switzerland with an identity distinct from Germany and France, Italian Switzerland, which accounts for only five percent of the country, clings strongly to its Italian heritage. But at the same time, the Ticinese2 are fully Swiss, very proud of being part of Switzerland, and with an air of disapproval of Italy’s ever present government crises and its tie to the European Union and the Euro zone, neither of which Ticino has the slightest interest in joining.
