The permanent exhibition "Tennis in Cuneo since 1928" offers a unique opportunity to delve into the fascinating history of tennis, bridging the past, present, and future in an engaging experience. Located at Cuneo's Sports Palace, this exhibition celebrates the rich tennis tradition through a selection of wooden rackets donated to the CRC Foundation from Collector Sergio Parola. The project was promoted by the Municipality of Cuneo and the CRC Foundation.
The exhibition stands out for its warm and welcoming environment, where the color of the red clay tennis courts dominates the interior of the showcase, enveloping visitors in an authentic and engaging atmosphere. The wooden rackets, carefully arranged along the back wall of the showcase, stand out against a backdrop reminiscent of the characteristic red clay of tennis courts, creating a tangible connection to the deep roots of tennis.
Each racket, with its intricate details and stories filled with passion and dedication, harmoniously blends with the surrounding environment, conveying the authentic essence of tennis practiced according to ancient traditions.
At the center of the exhibition space, a white three-dimensional structure captures visitors'attention, echoing the distinctive lines and proportions of a tennis court in an artistic and innovative representation. This unique architectural element adds depth and dynamism to the environment.
The texts displayed as window decals were written by Franco Alciati, writer and president of the Tennis Collectors Association.
Through this combination of visual and historical elements, the "Tennis in Cuneo since 1928" exhibition offers a unique perspective on the tennis tradition, celebrating its history, culture, and lasting impact.
