The Orangerie of the Villa Reale will host an anthology entitled Antonio Ligabue. The man, the artist, curated by Sandro Parmiggiani, produced and organized by ViDi in collaboration with the Municipality of Monza and the Villa Reale and Parco di Monza Consortium, which celebrates the genius of Antonio Ligabue (1899-1965), through 90 works, including paintings, sculptures, engravings and drawings, able to retrace his human and creative life, along a chronological span that from the twenties of the last century reaches up to 1962, when a paresis effectively put an end to his activity. The exhibition offers some of his most important masterpieces such as Big Game, Circus, Royal Tiger, Leopard with Snake and some paintings chosen among the self-portraits. Among the most anticipated exhibitions. Monet. Masterpieces from the Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris – Genoa
All coming from the Musee Marmottan Monet in Paris, the 50 masterpieces on display represent some of the spearheads of Monet’s artistic production and tell the entire artistic parable of the Impressionist Master, read through the works that Monet cared most about, his ” ”Works, those that the artist jealously kept in his house in Giverny until his death, those from which he never wanted to part. The uniqueness of this exhibition lies in the love and intimacy that emanate from the works on display, set up in a completely new and suggestive way in the various rooms of the Munizioniere of Palazzo Ducale. Among the great exhibitions of the year. Giorgio Morandi and Bertozzi & Casoni. Less is more – Bologna
After their debut at the Galleria d’Arte Maggiore gam in the early 1980s, Bertozzi & Casoni, now internationally known, return to exhibit within the walls of the gallery. The main theme of the exhibition is the tribute to Giorgio Morandi, presented both with a selection of “Flowers” and “Landscapes” by the Maestro, and with real “d’apres Morandi” that the duo Bertozzi & Casoni created by interpreting and filtering the Morandian lesson through ceramics, their favorite medium. In these works by Bertozzi & Casoni, not only does the lit palette become pastel, but their investigation into vanitas and caducita also involves Morandi’s flowers. Jeff Koons, record results for the exhibition at Palazzo Strozzi
The exhibition “Jeff Koons. Shine ”achieved a record result of over 170,000 visitors, having sold out in the halls of Palazzo Strozzi since its opening in October. Titian and the image of woman – Milan
In Venice in the sixteenth century the female image acquires an importance perhaps never seen before in the history of painting.
This is due to various factors, such as the presence of Titian and other artists working both in Venice and on the mainland, particularly interested in the representation of female beauty, but also, in parallel, to the particular status that women had in Venetian society. The exhibition, created in collaboration with the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, will also include works by Tintoretto, Veronese, Palma il Vecchio. Among the most anticipated exhibitions of the year. Vasilij Kandinskij – Rovigo
Among the upcoming exhibitions, the one in Rovigo. The Kandinsky enigma is not yet fully revealed. And the large retrospective curated by Paolo Bolpagni and Evgenia Petrova, for Roverella di Rovigo, aims to investigate this research in an authoritative way. Kandinsky’s fascination also lies in his impregnability, in escaping completely rational explanations. The aim of the exhibition is to analyze the constant change and evolution of his evocative and visionary art. A punctual journey that enters the heart of all of Kandinskij’s creative moments, documenting it in the exhibition through a sequence of works that, of this quality, could hardly be admired in an Italian exhibition about him. Works granted by Russian museums, first of all, but also by numerous European institutions.
