Donated to the University of Bergamo in 2021 by the heirs of the renowned intellectual, the Ada and Mario De Micheli Fund represents a significant cultural asset. It houses materials of great historical and documentary value: part of Mario De Micheli’s personal archive, art collection, and a library belonging to both him and his wife, Ada Tommasi.
This diverse set of documents, artworks, and books not only reflects the richness of the intellectual journey of the couple, but also serves as an important testament to the history of 20th-century art and culture. Today, the Collection is a valuable resource for scholars, researchers, and enthusiasts, contributing to the preservation and appreciation of the cultural and artistic memory of the last century.
