Young curators of international reality

Directed by Isabella Lapi Ballerina, the modern art gallery at Palazzo Pitti, extends its interest in the contemporary by programming its third cycle of encounters outside the walls of the Pitti Palace as part of Fabbrica Europa. The initiative is realised with the sponsorship of Cassa di Risparmio/Osservatorio per le arti contemporanee.

On three successive Thursdays the Leopolda Station will be animated by a workshop of the contemporary, open to the city, in the third series of  Sopralluoghi - Indagine nel contemporaneo (Investigations - An inquiry into the contemporary).
Artists, critics, curators and the public meet in a dialectical process of free exchange between participants.
Each week two speakers will confront some of the problems and realities which characterise today's artistic world.

The other planned encounters are:

17th  May
Luigi Fassi
Chiara Agnello
Young Italian artists

24th  May
Luca Cerizza
Alessandro Rabottini
Young artists active on the international scene
