Am I dreaming or awake?
The exhibition will be divided into three sections: Nocturnes, Daydreaming; The Dream of the Ancient and Contemporary Imaginary, with over forty artists from different generations, covering over a century of history, from the early twentieth century to the present day, that is, from Futurism to the different languages of the present day.
The first section
It will present a significant sampling of landscapes and nocturnal visions, with historical artists such as Dottori, Sironi, Drei, Romiti, Rossi, up to Paladino, Violetta, Pompili and the younger Lombardi, Babini, Neri.
The central section
The largest one, will offer a very heterogeneous panorama of surprising images, between a visionary approach taken to the threshold of hallucination, images of a disoriented reality, almost fable-like suggestions, through the most heterogeneous linguistic solutions. Among the artists present, from masters of the early twentieth century such as De Chirico, Licini, Casorati, to protagonists of the second half of the century such as Matta, Moreni, Scanavino, Vacchi, Baj, Morlotti, Giosetta Fioroni, Ontani, Cucchi, De Dominicis, to reach the present day with D'Ambrosio and Rivalta.
The last section
It will bring together artists who reinterpret the past through very different languages, and some others taken from the imagination of our time: from Funi, Francese, Mattioli, Schifano, to Pulini, Pozzi, Minguzzi, Lucia Nanni, and a surprising creator of monsters. Visual traces of a time projected towards virtual realities, and at the same time memories of the past, regressions into an archaic oneiricity.
The exhibition will be documented by a catalogue with reproductions of all the works on display and a text by the curator.
