An important exhibition at the Centre Matteucci for Modern Art in Viareggio: I Macchiaioli for the Orangerie. This exhibition presents 15 masterpieces by the Macchiaioli movement, chosen among the ones that will be exhibited at the Museum de l\'Orangerie in Paris from 9 April to 22 July 2013, in the exhibition entitled Macchiaioli 1850-1877. The Italian Impressionists?. There will be works by Giuseppe Abbati, Cristiano Banti, Giovanni Boldini, Odoardo Borrani, Edoardo Cecioni, Vincenzo Cabianca, Vito D\'Ancona, Serafino De Tivoli, Giovanni Fattori, Silvestro Lega, Telemaco Signorini, Federico Zandomeneghi. Very famous works will be presented, as Santa Maria dei Bardi in Florence, La luna di miele by Signorini, La passeggiata al muro torto by Antonio Puccinelli, Il ritratto di Maria Donegani by Boldini, Le monachine by Cabianca and Le bambine che fanno le signore by Lega. This exhibition in Viareggio wants to answer to the question posed by the title of the exhibition in Paris in April: the Macchiaioli are the Italian Impressionists? There are many similarities between the two movements: The rejection of academic classicism, the continue search for impressions of realty, the rejection of the drawing, the use of color a macchia without contours, the use of popular and social subjects.
