There are 120 photographs, 2 original dresses made by Gattinoni and 2 costumes from the films "Imperial Venus" and "The World’s Most Beautiful Woman" made by Costumi d'Arte, as well as some Bulgari jewelry. In addition, never-before-seen footage will be shown that tells the private and public life of the iconic film legend. All this is 'Gina’s Worlds', the exhibition dedicated to Gina Lollobrigida (1927-2023), which is being hosted from June 9 in Rome in the rooms of Palazzo Poli, which overlooks the Trevi Fountain. 'Gina’s Worlds' is a tribute to the eclectic talent of one of the greatest actresses in the history of Italian and international cinema. "Gina", say the exhibition curators, "was first and foremost a self-made woman. A contemporary woman of many facets and inexhaustible creativity, who already at the height of her success in the 1960s, first in parallel and then leaving acting behind, resumed her artistic vein and turned to photography, receiving many awards and honors. But at the bottom of the different artistic expressions that she cultivated, there were common traits that were recognized by all those who were fortunate enough to know her, character traits that she retained until the very end, namely an endless curiosity and great enthusiasm. Gina's eyes often sparkled, she lived on enthusiasm, and enthusiasm is contagious, it is a universal language that everyone understands".
