Charles M. Schulz, a life with Peanuts. An immersive exhibition in the work of the greatest cartoonist of the 20th century

The exhibition, promoted by CRC Innova in collaboration with the cultural association CUADRI, is open until April 1, 2024, at Spazio Inn@vazione. Curated by comics critic and historian Federico Fiecconi and organized in association with the Charles M. Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California, the exhibition aims to give visitors the thrill of coming face-to-face with the creator of Peanuts , widely recognized as the greatest cartoonist of the 20th century, the author of "the longest illustrated story ever told in the history of humanity," featuring a total of 17.897 strips and panels featuring Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and their group of friends, which Schulz published from October 2, 1950, to February 13, 2000.

A spectacular environment with an “all Peanuts” design offers visitors a series of experiences suitable for various age groups. The contents are entirely created in English and Italian to appreciate the original work of the American Master (who also took care of the lettering of the strips) and, at the same time, make it understandable to the wider public and of interest to the younger public. Children, who already know some of the Peanuts, in the room, will have the opportunity for a close encounter to discover the peculiarities of the most famous characters, play with them and even try to reproduce their drawings by following Schulz's line on a backlit table.

The exhibition is organized in association with the Charles M. Schulz Museum in Santa Rosa, California, with exhibition design and experience curated by Centrica Srl. The exhibition is organized in collaboration with Peanuts Worldwide, LLC , Dall'Angelo Pictures, Normaal, and Rai Kids, Media Partner, thanks to the contribution of the CRC Foundation and the support of Generali, ACDA, Giuggia Costruzioni, Gino, Sedamyl, Bottero, and Tesi Square, and with the patronage of the Piedmont Region, the Province of Cuneo, and the City of Cuneo.
