There's always something happening in Biella: from classical music festivals to village fetes, from sacred performances (like Christ's Passion in Sordevolo) to concerts and art exhibitions, in every season of the year there are many events of different nature being organized. To know "what's up", we invite you to check the pages of ATL (the local tourist authority), where you can find a complete list of every event. In these pages we'll offer you some suggestions and some ideas of the season's top events.

 

For the Winter Season, no doubt the key event is the following exhibition:

"I segreti di un collezionista - Le straordinarie raccolte
di Cassiano dal Pozzo (1588-1657)"

(The secrets of a collector - The wonderful collections of Cassiano dal Pozzo)

Born in Biella, but with his entire life spent in Rome, politician and man of deep culture, with interests ranging from art to science, from botanic to botany to zoology, Cassiano dal Pozzo has played a key role in Rome cultural life (the so called "roman baroque" is the result of a complex network of relations between Dal Pozzo and the most valuable artists of the period).
In this exhibition people can see more than two hundred works of art (pictures, sculptures, ancient furnitures, manuscripts, etc...) from Cassiano dal Pozzo's collections. To have more details about this event, please take a look at Biella's administration website (alas, in Italian only), where you'll find all the information about history, biography and collections of Cassiano dal Pozzo.
