Mostre Musei Civici di Spoleto
On the occasion of the 67th edition of Festival dei Due Mondi, the Civic Museums of Spoleto are hosting a series of interventions by contemporary artists at different venues in an art circuit within the city.
The spaces of Palazzo Collicola host three exhibitions: in addition to Chiara Camoni 's solo show at the Piano Nobile spaces, the ground floor hosts the first solo exhibition in a public museum by artist Roberto Fassone. The exhibition is curated from Saverio Verini and presents a series of works created by the artist throughout his career. The exhibition project constitutes a first retrospective reading ofopera Fassone, active from more than a decade in the field of Italian and international contemporary art, and recently awarded the prestigious MAXXI BVLGARI PRIZE for Digital Art. Some rooms on the second floor of Palazzo Collicola, which is dedicated to the exhibition of the museum's permanent collection of contemporary art, host an exhibition of photographs from the Attolico family collection. Through a selection of works, the exhibition project aims to offer a wide-ranging overview of contemporary photography. The names include internationally acclaimed contemporary artists Regina Josè Galindo (Guatemala City, 1974), Thomas Ruff (Zell, 1958), Santiago Sierra (Madrid, 1966), Alfredo Jaar (Santiago, Chile, 1956), Jonathan Monk (Leicester, 1969), alongside historicized Italian artists such as Mario Giacomelli (Senigallia, 1925 - 2000), Gabriele Basilico (Milan, 1944 - 2013), and Gianni Berengo Gardin (Santa Margherita Ligure, 1930). An exhibition that once again emphasizes the link between Palazzo Collicola and the collection of the Attolico family, from years close to the Museum and its activities.
