Exhibitions

Twenty-five years on from the last exhibition dedicated to him by the City of Venice, the centenary provides us with an opportunity to reconsider Santomaso’s complex creative development.The exhibition is not simply meant to be a one-man show but a chance to extensively revisit Italian abstract art in the second half of the 20th century. There are thus also works by Afro, Renato Birolli, Mario De Luigi, Leone Minassian, Zoran Music, Armando Pizzinato, Emilio Vedova, Bice Lazzari, Tancredi, Antonio Corpora, Virgilio Guidi and Toti Scialoja, testifying to the more or less remote or close dialogue between Santomaso and the leading players in the Italian movement known as Arte informale, and works by Braque, Poliakoff, Winter.
