The Museo Morandi of the Settore Musei Civici Bologna is pleased to present the exhibition Mary Ellen Bartley: MORANDI’S BOOKS, curated by Alessia Masi.
Held from 30 January to 7 July 2024 in the spaces of the museum that hosts the largest public collection of Giorgio Morandi’s works, the exhibition is one of the five special projects of the twelfth edition of ART CITY Bologna, the institutional programme of exhibitions, events and special initiatives promoted by the Municipality of Bologna in collaboration with BolognaFiere on the occasion of Arte Fiera, which explore and reinterpret the work of the Bolognese master on the 60th anniversary of his death, through different contemporary languages.
The exhibition is part of a practice tried and tested for years by the Museo Morandi: to create relationships between the work of contemporary artists and that of the Bolognese master, in order to shed new light on the real cultural significance of his work and reaffirm his leading role in the global cultural imagination as well as his influence on international visual culture.
