Emilio Isgrò: Modello Italia
This exhibition is divided into two sections: the first comprises the most important installations made by Emilio Isgrò during the past four years since his retrospective in Prato in 2008; the second displays the Sicilian artist's major works from earlier in his career. The exhibition demonstrates the modernity of the artist's early work and the close relations it has with his most recent creations, continuing and expanding themes he explored in the 1960s and 1970s. Chief among these themes is Isgrò's belief that it is the duty of Italian artists to reassert Italy's international standing as a great cultural power.
