Museums in northern Italy stay closed amid new coronavirus fears


An unprecedented shutdown of museums is taking place in Venice, Turin and Milan as private and public institutions close their doors in the wake of the coronavirus (Covid-2019) outbreak across northern Italy. Seven Italian regions have now been instructed to close museums and implement various restrictions: Lombardy, Piedmont, Veneto, Emilia-Romagna, Liguria, Trentino-Alto Adige and Friuli-Venezia Giulia.



The coronavirus (Covid-2019) outbreak that started in Wuhan, China is affecting more and more regions worldwide as a sharp rise in reported cases in South Korea, Japan, Singapore, Iran, and Italy is making headlines this week.

According to The Art Newspaper, all museums in seven regions throughout northern Italy have been ordered to close, including high-profile cultural institutions such as Museo Correr, the Palazzo Ducale, and the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice as well as Milan's Fondazione Prada venues, the opera house La Scala, and the city's famed cathedral.

Quarantine has been ordered for towns in the Veneto and Lombardy regions to stop the dangerous virus from spreading further.

With the opening of the 2020 Venice Biennale Architecture Exhibition on May 23 quickly approaching, it remains to be seen if and how the new health and safety measures will impact preparation and visitor numbers.

Editors’ Choice 2020 Skyscraper Competition Ruwan Fernando Australia Ever since the Apollo mission showed us the first images of our ‘pale blue dot’ from space, the idea of the world as a ‘whole’ has captured the people’s imagination. Going beyond borders, oceans, and thinking of the continents as a continuous entity comes from this vision. Fifty years later, we face the existential threat of ecological disaster, and maybe revisiting the whole earth project seems like a way of recapturing that drive. This proposal looks at a network of towers that span across the oceans connecting the planet in a matrix that provides energy cleans the oceans and gives new chances for life to thrive. Fusion, Solar, and Hydro-power are used in this matrix with all of these being in high abundance in the ocean. The towers are also self-sufficient and mine minerals from the water as well as farm to support their communities. Research and manufacturing also feature heavily. The connections of the g
