Dialogues across time. Works from the Collection
Overview
Intro
The exhibition dedicated to the MASI Collection at Palazzo Reali presents an unusual and compelling dialogue.
Across five rooms, around thirty paintings connected to Ticino are set in relation to works of contemporary photography, revealing connections and resonances over time between different styles and genres, from landscape to portraiture.
The Alpine landscapes of Ferdinando Ramponi and Leonardo Dudreville are placed in dialogue with photographs by Balthasar Burkhard and Axel Hütte.
A selection of female portraits by Antonio Rinaldi, Luigi Rossi, Edoardo Berta, Ambrogio Alciati and Filippo Boldini is paired with a photographic portrait of a young student by Rineke Dijkstra.
The exhibition is completed by pastel works by Adolfo Feragutti Visconti, Giuseppe Mentessi and Pietro Chiesa, as well as Divisionist landscapes by Umberto Boccioni, presented alongside photographs by Bernd and Hilla Becher.
