Giorgio de Chirico and Giorgio Morandi - Rays of Light in Italian Modern Art

Exhibitions

The exhibition is an important opportunity to understand and experience the dialogue between these two seminal Italian painters.
It chronicles the two artists’ life and career, underlining the resemblance in the differences.
Painters by other contemporary Italian artists as Alberto Savinio (de Chirico’s brother), Mario Sironi and Filippo de Pisis help in better understand these two great painters in the light of the historical and cultural context in which they both lived and created.
