From Van Gogh in Vicenza to
Caravaggio in Milan, Giorgione in Castelfranco Veneto (Treviso),
Ambrogio Lorenzetti in Siena, Picasso in Genoa and Monet's
Impressionist masterpieces in Rome, the season ahead will be
filled with important exhibits throughout Italy.
There will also be an eagerly awaited retrospective in
Pistoia of Marino Marini's sculpture, one on the Mannerism
school - Michelangelo, Pontormo and Arciboldo in Florence - and
one on the refined exotic Japanese work of Hokusai in the
capital.
The season will kick off on September 9 with a show entitled
'Advertising! The Birth of Modern Communication, 1890-1957' at
Fondazione Magnani Rocca until December 10 and with one on the
legendary gems of the Thani Collection, exhibited for the first
time in Italy in Venice's Palazzo Ducale until January 3.
On September 16 there will be the opening of 'Marino Marini.
Visual Passions', one hundred works (from the well known
'Cavalieri' to 'Pumone' and 'Giocolieri'), exhibited until
January 7 at Pistoia's Palazzo Fabroni, in the artist's native
city.
And then there will be 'Pablo Picasso. Between Cubisma and
Neoclassicism: 1915-1925', from September 22 until January 21 at
the Scuderie del Quirinale, where the masterpieces loaned by
major international museums will be arriving soon.
The exhibition will be the second of three - the first was in
Naples and the third will be in Genoa - that celebrate the
Spanish genius's trip to Italy a century ago and the resulting
change to his style.
From Michelangelo to Rosso Fiorentino, from Andrea del Sarto
to Pontormo and Bronzino, 16th century Florence will be the
focus of an exhibition housed between September 21 and January
21 in Palazzo Strozzi, while from September 23 until January 21
there will be 'Secession. Munich, Vienna, Prague, Rome. The Wave
of Modernity' in Palazzo Roverella with paintings by Schiele,
Klimt, Klinger and many others.
Possibly the most eagerly-awaited exhibition will be 'Inside
Caravaggio' in Milan's Palazzo Reale from September 29 until
January 28, which will attempt to give a new view on his work
and a glimpse to visitors of the creative and revolutionary
process of the Lombard maestro.
October will include the 'Van Gogh, Between the Wheat and the
Sky' between October 7 and April 8 in Vicenza at Basilica
Palladiana.
Concluding the autumn season will be the 'Picasso:
Masterpieces from the Picasso Museum in Paris' show from
November 10 until May 6 in Genoa.
