| Cultural projects, part of Intesa Sanpaolo's interest and involvement in the communities in which it operates, are a tangible way of guaranteeing the active participation of the Institute in Italian civil society and contributing to the latter's cultural, social and economic development. "Civic responsibility" being the main objective of its cultural and social policies, the Bank's activities in the cultural sphere are carried out through a combination of projects planned and undertaken by the Institute - with independent goals - and partnerships to support and promote important educational and scientific institutions.
Intesa Sanpaolo has supported and directly managed three main types of interventions: | | | | |  | support for the preservation and enhancement of the national cultural heritage; | | | | |  | conservation and historical/critical studies of its own art collections, for public enjoyment; | | | | |  | conservation and enhancement of its own buildings of significant artistic and architectural value | | | | In conclusion, the Bank's principal social policy goals - the promotion and management of initiatives to encourage growth and knowledge - can be discerned in this search to blend institutional operations with the production of valuable and useful projects for the community. | | | | | | |  |  | | The baroque residence of the Leoni Montanari family in Vicenza transformed into Galleries of the same name, allowing visitors to enjoy its treasures: collections of 18th Century Veneto paintings, with works by Pietro Longhi, Canaletto, Luca Carlevarijs and Francesco Guardi, and of Russian icons dating from the 13th to the 19th Century, plus a rich program of temporary exhibitions, didactic activities, conventions and musical appointments. | | More info |

| | | | | | | |  |  | | Since 1989, the annual Restituzioni restoration program has guaranteed the recovery of over five hundred works of art belonging to Italy's Heritage. This is promoted and run by the Bank in collaboration with the competent Superintendencies for restoration of works of art destined to be shown to the general public. | | More info |

| |  |  | | Intesa Sanpaolo creates and curates exhibitions as a way of making the most of its art collections and this activity runs in parallel with more traditional loans of its works to important exhibitions and in support of high-profile initiatives organized by public and private bodies. | | More info |
