From 13 March to 16 June, the gallery hosts a group exhibition dedicated to the artists who were part of the Gruppo degli Otto. With a selection of about 20 works, the exhibition brings together the eight Italian artists who, gathered around the critic Lionello Venturi, participated from 1952 to 1954 in the brief yet intense experience of the Gruppo degli Otto.

With canvases by Afro Basaldella, Renato Birolli, Antonio Corpora, Mattia Moreni, Ennio Morlotti, Giuseppe Santomaso, Giulio Turcato, and Emilio Vedova, the exhibition highlights the experimental and profoundly innovative approach of these artists, who, without agreeing on a common language, preferred a subjective and personal abstract painting, free to go beyond the very limits imposed by abstraction.

Considered among the greatest Italian painters of the post-war period, the exhibition focuses on the personal specificities and expressive declinations that each artist was able to develop autonomously during and after the dissolution of the group. On display, vibrant and diverse works in terms of subject, chromatic temperament, and gestural marks, suspended between abstract and concrete, and in continuous dialogue with nature and the multiplicity of life.
