Florence, capital of the Renaissance, we are in the complex of the Basilica of San Lorenzo; Paris, the essence of modern European culture, from the Place de la Madeleine to the Hôtel de Crillon: two monumental exhibition itineraries in which Maestro Andrea Roggi confronts the architecture and volumes of the city through the significant lens of his creations.

It was customary for the eve of St. John to celebrate and light bonfires of or brooms in the city, in the squares and in the countryside and on the hills around the city to celebrate the summer solstice. They were the ‘fires of rejoicing’ which, recalling their pagan origins, attributed sacredness to light.

We are in Quarrata, in Nicola Fiore’s operations office, overlooked by a multitude of trophies, models and prototype racing cars. It is not difficult to understand how important the world of racing is in his life: many victories to his credit in Italy and abroad, participations and placings in the Italian and European Rally Championship. Then in 2017 the decision, with his friend and insurer Paolo Campinoti, to take over the historic AutoSole dealership. “We specialize in the sale, mechanical service and rental of premium cars,” he points out.
