The Museum aims to present both advertisings as such with particular reference to artistic and expressive languages and the influence of these on the social context and habits, and the culture associated with the world of business and communication strategies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The collection includes over 2000 posters and original sketches dating from the 1930s to the 1980s, which represent a precious artistic and cultural record of Italian production. The RAI\u2019s collection, formerly the property of Sipra, comprises for the most part of donations by the families of Dino Villani, of Severo Pozzati (in art, Sepo), and of poster designer Nico Endel, and includes the work of such artists as Dudovich, Cassandre, Armando Testa, Gino Boccasile, together with posters from the Enit (Ente Nazionale Italiano per il Turismo, the Italian Tourist Board) and from other public bodies through the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2009, the Museum of Advertising opened its Mediatheque to the public. To date, the Museum of Advertising collects about 30,000 campaigns including television commercials, print advertisements, and billboards from the early 1950s to the present day, of which about 8,000 have been filed and entered into the Mediatheque&#8217;s database.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of the famous&nbsp;<em>Carosello<\/em>&nbsp;broadcasts that have become accounts of Italian habits, the collection\u2019s audio-visual material includes spots for cinema and television, including the whole collection of advertising films that have won awards at the International Festivals of Cannes and Venice since 1954.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Students and researchers have a station within the Museum Library through which they can consult the database. The Mediatheque is open to the Public by appointment during the hours of the Castello di Rivoli Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Info<br><a href=\"mailto:biblioteca@castellodirivoli.org\">biblioteca@castellodirivoli.org<\/a> <br>tel. 011.9565285<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Mediatheque is temporarily closed due to maintenance and updating.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div id=\"block-block_95af41e85f4b04a1e1b25660c5013757\" class=\"col  col-12 col-lg-7\" data-type=\"mst-column\">\n\t\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"932\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-932x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-147152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-932x1024.jpg 932w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-273x300.jpg 273w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-137x150.jpg 137w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-768x844.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-1398x1536.jpg 1398w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-1864x2048.jpg 1864w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-300x330.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.castellodirivoli.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Museo-pubblicita-2-600x659.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 932px) 100vw, 932px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":600,"featured_media":147147,"parent":114377,"menu_order":2,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-103147","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
