Guided Visit of Giorgio Morandi: SOLD OUT PLEASE SELECT ANOTHER DATE
The Center for Italian Modern Art was established in 2013 to promote the study and appreciation of Italian twentieth-century art. Each year, from October to June, we focus on one artist as the theme or platform for our annual installation, public programming, and fellowship program.
Our third season (October 9, 2015 June 25, 2016) is devoted to the painter and printmaker GIORGIO MORANDI (1890-1964), one of the best known Italian artists of the 20th century. CIMA's installation will focus on the artist's rarely seen works from the 1930s -- the decade when Morandi reached full artistic maturity and developed his distinctive pictorial language. These works until now have remained relatively little known outside of Italy. Featuring some 40 paintings, etchings, and drawings drawn from major public and private collections, the installation marks the first time in decades that many of these works have been on view in the US. A few works by contemporary artists Tacita Dean, Matthias Schaller, and Wolfgang Laib will be exhibited in conjunction with the installation, offering another means of approaching Morandi.
CIMA is conceived more as a home, in order to offer an intimate art viewing experience, different from what you might find in a typical museum or gallery. You are invited to have an espresso, talk with the fellows, and linger afterward.
Reserve your spot now! Guided visits are available on Fridays and Saturdays at 11:00 am, 1:00 pm, 3:00 pm, and 5:00 pm.
$10 general; free for CIMA Members and students with valid ID.
