FLORENCE.- The  Uffizi is showing a collection of art works entitled ‘Volti svelati’ (‘Faces Revealed’) in the Reali Poste Hall, until 29 January 2012. This exhibition is sponsored by the Friends of the Uffizi, an association which has supported and worked alongside the gallery since 1993. The exhibition has been put together by the Uffizi Gallery with the help of the Special Office for Historic, Artistic and Anthropological Heritage and the City of Florence Museums Association. The exhibition contains a number of classical sculptures from the collections of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. The exhibition supervisor, Cristina Acidini said ‘The exhibition sheds light on an extraordinary part of the history of museum studies as it highlights the rather topical and sometimes burning issue of the ‘use’ of ancient artifacts in museums and galleries. The Uffizi and other places displaying Classical art, including villas, gardens, private family collections and smaller museums and galleries, are all places where these busts and sculptures have been on display in one way or another.’
