Italy Pavilion |
Strolling in the Italy Pavilion at Expo 2010 Shanghai, visitors will develop a feeling like taking a journey in Italy. Stepping into the pavilion, people will see a model of the ancient architecture in Italian style. Passing through the architecture under an arch, individuals come up to a very spacious exhibition hall. Most of the exhibitions focus on visual presentations. There are luxury cars and motor bikes. There are Italian artworks, furniture, paintings, antiques, fashion design, graphic design, volumetric and motion design. There is a Pinocchio Workshop demonstrating how a long-nosed wooden puppet, Pinocchio, is made by a craftsman. Round the corner, six Sicilian altar frontals are hung on the wall. These fabric embroidery hangings with colorful silk yarns and precious materials are used in churches to cover the front of altars. Going to another end of the exhibition hall, there is a giant high-heeled shoe. A number of stylish and fashionable Italian shoes are attached to it.
On the second floor of the pavilion, there is a very nice Italian restaurant and a cafe. In the gallery named as "Italy of the Cities", movies introducing Italian cities, lifestyle and culture are projected on both sides of the passages. Next to the "Italy of the Cities", there is a section introducing Toscana which is a region in central Italy. Florence is its regional capital. The displays in the Italy Pavilion are very artistic. Various artistic patterns are formed by millions of Italian pastas in different shapes. Famous products also include Italian wines. The last part of the exhibitions is to bring up the message of World Expo 2015 which will be held in Milan of Italy.
