Italian term or phrase: torna a fare capolino
Torniamo a stupirvi. Con surrealismi d’arte e classici rivisitati, con l’arte di un francese in esilio a New York, e la voce di una grande donna che dall’America se n’era andata, con letture ardite sull’onda del vezzo e con piccole città da cui il Barocco torna a fare capolino.

Contexte: il s'agit d'un festival d'art baroque qui se tiendra dans plusieurs villes.

Auriez-vous des idées pour traduire cette expression?
Vos suggestions sont les bienvenues.
Merci d'avance
