Guggenheim, Fondazione Pinault - in a zone that speaks of art.
In the evening there is a wonderful silence, you only hear the
passing boats”. Lucia’s husband is an architect; he has supervised
the renovation of the house, in which windows and terrace offer
a view of a Venice of dreams, canals, rooftops, the steeple
of St. Mark’s.
“My husband works for big fashion brands, helping them to
open stores here. An architect from Milan, Paris, or San Francisco
wouldn’t really know about all the municipal regulations, and how
to cope with tidal flooding”. So the theme of being special returns
- to being different, to knowing a way of life no one else will ever
experience in the same way. “I don’t know if we Venetians are
really special, but we are definitely different. However, keeping this
characteristic has a high price, especially if you have children.
When the kids were small we went to Mestre for dinner, the return
trip from Piazzale Roma to our home was a real ordeal. We would
put the children in a shopping cart and push it through the streets,
all the way to our house, where we had to carry them up four flights
of stairs in our arms”. Being special can be tiring at times.
