The exhibition The Lasting, which examines the importance that time assumes both in artistic poetry and practice, features more than 30 works by 15 italian and international artists of different generations.
With Francis Alÿs, Barbara Probst, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Tatiana Trouvé, Franco Vimercati, alongside key artists of the latest years, such as Giorgio Andreotta Calò, Emanuele Becheri, Antonio Catelani, Giulia Cenci, Daniela De Lorenzo, Antonio Fiorentino, Marie Lund, Elizabeth McAlpine, Alessandro Piangiamore, Andrea Santarlasci, with also works by Alexander Calder, Lucio Fontana and Medardo Rosso from the permanent collection of the museum.
The works, which are all of large format and range from paintings to sculptures, from videos to photographies to installations, are placed in a single large space, where the vertical dimension is also used to create a perfect fusion between the works and the surroundings.
Traditionally conceived as being antithetical and conflicting, the concepts of duration and interval lie at the centre of this exhibition in an ever-changing way, as if they were two sides of the same coin or two simultaneous and indivisible moments of a very same transformation process.
