The workshop “Staging italianità between Race, Science, and the Arts. Museum, Exhibitions, Festivals and the Making o f Identities in Italy 1911-1967” makes a close connection between exhibitio ns (and museums, fairs, expos, festivals…) and the making of identities, bo th the Italian national identity and those of “the others” (non-European pe oples, colonial subjects, but also archaic humans…), built through temporar y exhibitions among other media. The workshop insists on an unprecedented c hronology, which from the liberal age includes and goes beyond Fascism into the Republican era, highlighting the long development of a certain discour se on italianità and the longevity of the exhibition med ia as a means to narrate it.

Starting with the 1911 exhibition to cel ebrate the fiftieth anniversary of the Unification of Italy, museums, exhib itions, and fairs were used to try to define what was Italian and what was not. From the race-themed exhibitions of the late 1930s in Turin and Naples , and those dedicated to the great “Italian” scientists such as Da Vinci an d Galileo, to the exhibitions dedicated to prehistoric art in the peninsula (1957, in Florence), the construction of the Italian identity invested eve ry field of science and the arts. Italy’s place in the world and its relati ons with “the other”, moreover, is a concern that accompanied the difficult transition from Fascism to the Republic, as witnessed by the “Fiera del Me diterraneo” in Palermo and “Fiera del Levante” in Bari in the 1950s, or the international documentary film festival “Festival dei Popoli” in the 1950s and 1960s.

“Staging italianità” in particular investig ates exhibitions as sites where visions of Italy were stored, establishing the very (racial) borders of the Italian identity, and the gazes on that id entity were cataloged, using, within the display, a variety of other media, such as film, photography, collage, painting, diorama, and so on.
If defining italianità on all levels meant highlighting wha t Italians were and had been through the centuries (e.g. “genius” and “pion eers” in science and the arts), it also meant to emphasize what Italians, b y contrast, were not. Museum displays, expos, trade shows, and fairs will b e therefore considered as a place where belonging, inclusion, and othering were staged, and nationality was built.
