Mostre a Palazzo Collicola

From 28 June 2024 it will be possible to take part in numerous exhibitions at Palazzo Collicola in Spoleto. There will be a vast and multidisciplinary cultural proposal that, together with the invited artists, will see the involvement of associations and realities active on a national and Umbrian level.
The ground floor will host "Concerto", Roberto Fassone's first solo exhibition. The exhibition, curated by Saverio Verini, presents a series of works realised by the artist during his career. The marked conceptual dimension of Fassone's practice, which has always been oriented towards reflection on the status of the work of art, is expressed through works endowed with a playful and experimental character, with which the artist attempts to expand the imaginative potential of the observer. The exhibition project constitutes a first and broad reading of the entire oeuvre of Fassone, who has been active for more than a decade in the sphere of Italian and international contemporary art, and was recently awarded the prestigious MAXXI BULGARI PRIZE for Digital Art.
Also on the ground floor will be "Performing across Frontiers", curated by Gertrude Gibbons and Giulio Pampiglione (until 28.07.2024). The exhibition project intends to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the final performance of the theatre company Atelier di Formia, Bruno Jasieński's Ballo dei Manichini, held at the Festival dei Due Mondi in July 1984.
The exhibition includes a display of archive material by the director of the Atelier di Formia, Giovanni Pampiglione, characterising it as a tribute to the history of the theatre company and, at the same time, to that of the Festival.
The spaces of the Piano Nobile will host a personal exhibition by artist Chiara Camoni, curated by Saverio Verini, entitled "Inizio fine. Round. Tutte le cose del mondo' (until 20.10.2024). 
The artist's works will dialogue with the rooms of the palazzo and its pre-existences, creating an exhibition itinerary that winds its way through all the rooms: references to the natural and vegetable world, present in Camoni's practice, meet with the splendour of the rooms of Palazzo Collicola.
The room adjacent to the Biblioteca Carandente, on the other hand, will host an unprecedented intervention by artist Lulù Nuti, "In my end is my beginning" (until 22.09.2024). The project, curated by Spazio Taverna, was born on the margins of a residency that Nuti carried out at the European Gravitational Observatory in Cascina (PI): the meeting between the artist and the researchers led to the creation of a sculpture, which recalls a movement of expansion and contraction, the symmetry of a gravitational field at rest and the vertigo that the imagination feels when depicting the curvature of space-time.
With Lulù Nuti's work, this museum space intends to increasingly characterise itself as a showcase for emerging artists, who are invited to present themselves with a 'one-act' that invests the entire room.
Three rooms in the centre of the second floor will host "The New Weakness. Photographs from the Attolico Collection", curated by Serena Schioppa and Saverio Verini. Based on a selection of works, the exhibition project offers a wide-ranging overview of contemporary photography, through themes and gazes that range from the urban landscape to the natural landscape, to an interest in portraits and the human figure. The names include internationally renowned contemporary artists: Regina Josè Galindo (Guatemala City, 1974), Thomas Ruff (Zell, 1958), Santiago Sierra (Madrid, 1966), Anri Sala (Tirana, 1974), Jonathan Monk (Leicester, 1969), Elisabetta Benassi (Rome, 1966), alongside historicised Italian authors such as Mario Giacomelli (Senigallia, 1925 - 2000), Gabriele Basilico (Milan, 1944 - 2013) and Gianni Berengo Gardin (Santa Margherita Ligure, 1930).
The spaces outside the palace will also host the installation 'Dal Giorno alla Notte' (From Day to Night) by artist Felice Levini. The work consists of large red arrows ideally shot from above that, combining mythology and symbolism, are presented as "divine signals", indicating a place that is sacred in its own way. The presence of the arrows that make up the work will contribute to characterising the courtyard of Palazzo Collicola, becoming a new distinctive element of that space, freely accessible to the public during museum opening hours.
Finally, the basement will host Trace_001, an exhibition by gammatrace, a digital artist answering to the name of Nicolò Marchi. The exhibition, the artist's first solo show, draws a disturbed and contaminated reality, in which mind, body and space break the boundaries that divide them, giving life to figures caught in a suspended state, whose forms appear compromised, on the verge of unravelling. Trace_001 is made up of works created in CGI (computer generated imagery) and brings together two cycles: Nebuxel, from 2021, and Phosphenesis, the most recent and partially unseen, which saw the collaboration with British actor and artist Laurence Fuller and US director and actor Vincent D'Onofrio in the creation of a work in this series.
