    The short paper will present the results of the project entitled ''Straniere: the reception of non-European arts and cultures in Italy (1945-2000)'' (PI: Caterina Toschi). The project aims to examine the different visual, critical and exhibition readings that have been produced in Italy of non-Western arts, investigating some case studies inherent to the history of the market, exhibitions, publications, artistic and photographic research that have presented non-Western works and artifacts or have absorbed their characters, thus introducing in Italy new interpretative and representative paradigms of these ''foreign'' arts. The main milestone, and thus the main goal of the project, is a digital archive, in collaboration with CNR ISTI and Artificial Intelligence for Media and Humanities (AIMH), in which visual and textual sources documenting forms of reading, interpretation, paraphrase or presentation in Italy of non-European arts and cultures from 1945 to 2000 have been investigated, digitized and annotated. The short paper aims to present this scientific tool-host in the University for Foreigners of Siena's digital caveau designed and created by the company Promemoria-which is interoperable with all the archives involved in the research (Fondazione Centro Studi sull'Arte Licia e Carlo Ludovico, Cesare Brandi Photo Library at the Pinacoteca Nazionale of Siena, Fondazione Alinari per la Fotografia | FAF Toscana, CSAC - Centro Studi e Archivio della Comunicazione of the University of Parma, Archivio Luciano Caruso, Fondazione Passaré per la Promozione e lo Sviluppo delle Arti Primarie, Museo delle Civiltà of Rome, Mudec - Museo delle Culture of Milan, Museo d'Arte Cinese ed Etnografico di Parma, MUSEC - Museo delle Culture di Lugano, Musei Civici di Reggio Emilia). In accordance with the European project to create a common and interoperable web space of data for cultural heritage (European Collaborative Cloud for Cultural Heritage), the University for Foreigners of Siena has created this digital, open access archive, developed in line with the ECHOES Conceptual Model.
