Tancredi? Is this the artist Peggy Guggenheim promoted? Parmeggiani?


In 1950 Peggy organized the first exhibition of Jackson Pollock in
Italy, in the Ala Napoleonica of the Museo Correr in Venice. Her
collection was in the meantime exhibited in Florence and Milan, and
later in Amsterdam, Brussels, and Zurich. From 1951 Peggy opened her
house and her collection to the public annually in the summer months.
During her 30-year Venetian life, Peggy Guggenheim continued to
collect works of art and to support artists, such as Edmondo Bacci and
Tancredi Parmeggiani, whom she met in 1951. In 1962 Peggy Guggenheim
was nominated Honorary Citizen of Venice.
