GALLERIA CONTINUA: PANORAMA Monferrato

GALLERIA CONTINUA is pleased to announce its participation in Panorama Monferrato, the fourth edition of the region-wide exhibition conceived by ITALICS – an institutional network that brings together more than 70 galleries of ancient, modern and contemporary art.

From 2021, this annual event has been strengthening the bonds between architecture, art, landscape and local territories and their communities. 

From 4 to 8 September 2024, Panorama Monferrato will offer an exhibition itinerary that winds through vineyards, castles and parish churches that are found in the villages of Camagna Monferrato, Vignale Monferrato, Montemagno Monferrato and Castagnole Monferrato.

GALLERIA CONTINUA proudly presents a work by SUSANA PILAR, a prominent contemporary artist from Cuba, recognised for her innovative exploration of social and political issues within the broader global dialogue on race and gender.

The exhibition, which is curated by Carlo Falciani, is inspired by the principles of La civil conversazione – a work written by Stefano Guazzo (born in Casale Monferrato in 1530) and published in 1574. Panorama Monferrato is a journey to be taken slowly, a metaphor for the path of meditation. In the same way that Guazzo used his story’s characters to show how a community could only thrive if it was capable of cultivating a civil conversation, resolving conflicts through dialogue and thus forming the basis of the ethical development of man and society, so the contemporary visitor to Panorama also embarks on a reflective journey, starting with daily conflicts and ending with a level of spirituality, also secular, favored by art. 

There are more than 60 artists on show – from important names who created the history of international art to established and emerging artists from Italy and abroad – with works ranging from painting to performance, from sculpture to video art to installation, alongside great masterpieces of ancient art. 

Panorama Monferrato is supported under the patronage of UNESCO, the Ministry of Culture and Piedmont Region.
