In 1991 Between Warp & Weft was organised there. It was the first just Textile Antique's Fair ever held in Italy and it was then repeated three times. After fourteen years we have decided to try it again, looking for a Renaissance of antique rugs and textiles culture and market. Sartirana Textile Show is a new Dealers Fair, originally imagined by Alfio Nicolosi, with Edoardo Concaro's co-operation and mine. It will be hosted again by Sartirana Castle, that this year will celebrate the 25th anniversary of its renown Antique's Fair: Mostra Mercato d'Antiquariato. Our Textile Show will be held in the fascinating premises of the Pila, an agricultural-industrial old building that had been originally used for rice manufacturing. Participants are about 40 selected dealers from eleven different countries. They will present the best of their collections and recent acquisitions. Further information and a virtual catalogue of the Show can be found on the Internet at this address: www.belgioioso.it Some Collateral Events have been organised besides the Antiques' Fair and the Textile Show: Special Exhibition of Central Asian Rugs and Textiles, entitled Per Filo e Per Segno, that will present some outstanding Turkmen pieces, together with various interesting pieces of non-Turkmen origin.
