Lugano
This year the gallery presents a focus on the 20th century, characterised by significant political, social and intellectual transformations, notably marked by the First and Second World Wars. Concurrent with these upheavals was a period of prolific artistic activity, during which artists responded vigorously to the turbulence and changes in their environments and in the world. In between and beyond. Visions and imagery of the Italian 20th century delineates an arc that encompasses the research of the most prominent Italian artists of the period, whose contributions significantly influenced the artistic imagination during and between the two world wars.
