Censorship, after all, has always been a strong point. stimulation of attraction for the public “. This is what the historian and art critic Claudio Strinati said to Adnkronos, commenting on the choice to exhibit the great masterpiece of the Italian master at the Dubai Expo in part ‘censored’ in some parts of the body. And added Strinati: “for centuries and centuries the Christian-Catholic culture was in favor of censorship, like Muslim culture today. A form of coherence for them.
