Under the title\u00a0Conversation Piece<\/em>, name derived from a sculptural ensemble by\u00a0Juan Mun\u0303oz<\/b>, the exhibition, curated by Nimfa Bisbe, relates a dozen-odd works by artists with different poetic voices. As suggested by the expressive gestures of Mun\u0303oz\u2019s three characters, the show has the assertiveness of dialogue, but also that of contrast and intrigue, and is driven by the search for revelatory meaning. The interaction between the works follows a specific pattern, established on the one hand by the continuous quiet of the Minimalist aesthetic, and on the other by the threefold relationship between architecture, sculpture and the human figure.<\/p>\n In this exhibition, the formalist interpretation of the geometry of Minimalist art is dispelled by the strength of the experiences, symbolisms and fictions of the works. Form is of course important, but the artists represented here draw on it to support personal poetics and references to the reality of our world. Moreover, the plays on contrast and the affinity between the various artistic proposals displayed in the show trigger multiple readings that, in turn, are able to generate other different readings.<\/p>\n Fernanda Fragateiro,\u00a0Donald Judd,\u00a0Agnes Martin,\u00a0Juan Mu\u00f1oz,\u00a0Joan Hern\u00e1ndez Pijuan,\u00a0Doris Salcedo,\u00a0Juli\u00e3o Sarmento,\u00a0Thomas Sch\u00fctte,\u00a0Richard Serra,\u00a0Jana Sterbak,\u00a0Antoni T\u00e0pies,\u00a0Ignacio Uriarte,\u00a0Rachel Whiteread.<\/p>\n Besides providing a significant range of readings of the art produced during the last forty years, today the \u201cla Caixa\u201d Contemporary Art Collection promotes new dialogues and stories intended to extend the meaning and current relevance of the works. Indeed, this collection has gradually shaped a space for exploring and creating narratives, without overlooking its mission of recognising, preserving and representing the art of our age.<\/p>\n Conceived in 1985 as a project that was open to contemporary art, it has grown to include about a thousand major international works of art that bring together the memory of art from the past four decades, as well as offering a far-reaching vision of art\u2019s on-going exploration of today\u2019s world.<\/p>\n coleccion.caixaforum.com<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Galleria Nazionale is pleased to host the \u201dla Caixa\u201d Contemporary Art Collection in a…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1251,"menu_order":151,"template":"","event-type":[16],"event-categories":[],"event-tag":[],"class_list":["post-1252","evento","type-evento","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event-type-exhibition"],"acf":{"singole_date_check":false,"date_singole":null,"inizio_evento":"20170519","fine_evento":"20170917","event_all_day":true,"inizia_alle_event":null,"finisce_alle_event":null,"stato_evento":"attivo","nascondi_data":false},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento\/1252","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/evento"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/evento"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1251"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1252"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"event-type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-type?post=1252"},{"taxonomy":"event-categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-categories?post=1252"},{"taxonomy":"event-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/gnamc.cultura.gov.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/event-tag?post=1252"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}The Artists<\/h3>\n
