This year\u2019s Special Program focusses on the ten still existing city gates, with artworks and installations related to these monuments. Therefore, we will mention in the following, which gates are in the area to the venue proposed.<\/p>\n<p>Several art galleries and institutions have already inaugurated their shows. Besides an extensive installation, there are exhibitions of painting, photography, sculpture, ceramic, prints and and and \u2026 After last years\u2019 focus on Giorgio Morandi, also this year, there are two artists approaching the Bolognese master in their way. Other artists take their inspiration from other artists, other centuries, nature or reflection on their environment. Most of the exhibitions have special opening times throughout the days of the Arte Fiera and especially on Saturday 8 February, during the White Night, when most of the venues will be open until 23 or even 24 o\u2019clock. These proposals are in the order of the closing dates.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, there is an outlook to the Special Program, some shows in the Municipal Museums and galleries, which will open soon.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link1\">Oratorio di San Filippo Neri: Grazia Toderi &amp; Gilberto Zorio &#8211; Torri : Terra<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link2\">Galleria Le\u00f2n: Camilla Di Bella Vecchi &amp; Marco Gualdoni &#8211; Flemish Flair<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link3\">CAR Gallery: Emanuele Becheri \u2013 Opere<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link4\">L\u2019Ariete Contemporanea: Natura Naturans<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link5\">Galleria B4: Lodovico Pignatti Morano &#8211; Sussurri<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link6\">Studio Cenacchi: Zeno Bertozzi \u2013 Trame Silenziose<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link7\">Raccolta Lercaro: Luca Freschi \u2013 Se chiudo gli occhi il buio non mi vede \u2013 Atto II<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link8\">Casa Morandi: Alessandra Spranzi \u2013 il quale cerca la sua bellezza, nel mondo qui descritto<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link9\">Museo Morandi: Silvia B\u00e4chli \u2013 before<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link10\">Villa delle Rose: Carol Rama \u2013 Unique Multiples<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link11\">Labs Gallery: Elisabeth Scherffig &#8211; Observatorium<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link12\">Galleria de\u2019Foscherari: Claire Fontaine \u2013 Lotta<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link13\">Musei Civici Bologna \u2013 The Municipal Museums of Bologna<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link14\">Special Program: Le Porte della Citt\u00e0<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link15\">Exhibitions close to the City Gates<\/a><br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"#link16\">Exhibitions in the City Centre<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong id=\"link1\">Grazia Toderi &amp; Gilberto Zorio &#8211; Torri : Terra<\/strong><br \/>\n16 January \u2013 9 February 2025<br \/>\nOratorio di San Filippo Neri<br \/>\nVia Alessandro Manzoni 5, Bologna<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.oratoriosanfilipponeri.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.oratoriosanfilipponeri.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>After sunset you can immerse into a phantastic scenery by Grazia Toderi (Padua, 1963) and Gilberto Zorio (Adorno Micca, 1944) in the Oratorio di San Filippo Neri. The extensive installation consists of two intertwining vertical brick stars by Zorio, which are inspired by the Bolognese towers of the Garisenda and the Asinelli, landmarks of the city. On their walls and the surrounding space, Toderi projects a rotating satellite video of the earth by night. Continents and even cities are perceptible. The whole is accompanied by a \u201csound of air\u201d as it describes Toderi. Besides, this almost all senses appealing installation is an homage of the two renowned artists to the city.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_0_placeholder<strong id=\"link2\">Camilla Di Bella Vecchi &amp; Marco Gualdoni &#8211; Flemish Flair<\/strong><br \/>\n6 December 2024 &#8211; 15 February 2025<br \/>\nGalleria Le\u00f2n<br \/>\nVia Galliera 42\/A, Bologna (zone Porta Galliera)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61569361275124\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61569361275124<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Already since December, the new Galleria Le\u00f2n presents two artists dealing photographically with the human body. Camilla Di Bella Vecchi concentrates on women, with a special focus on hands. The depicted gestures and sections of the female body are often captured softly. Whereas Marco Gualdoni photographs of masculine figures are more contrasted. The models are subjected to the accessories. Despite the differences, the dark background and the light direction remind Dutch paintings of the 15th and 16th century. Hence, the title of the exhibition \u201cFlemish Flair\u201d. Besides, the gallery has an archive of anonymous images starting from the early days of photography until today, along with vintage photos of renown American authors of masculine nudes and the queer culture.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_1_placeholder<strong id=\"link3\">Emanuele Becheri \u2013 Opere<\/strong><br \/>\n30 November 2024 \u2013 15 February 2025<br \/>\nCAR Gallery<br \/>\nVia Azzo Gardino 14\/A, Bologna<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.cardrde.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.cardrde.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Emanuele Becheri\u2019s first solo exhibition in Bologna represents a kind of voyage. In part, we travel to the artist\u2019s approaches in terracotta in revisiting the subjects \u201cSolitudine, Coppia, Figura and Testa\u201d (Solitude, Couple, Figure and Head). While the Solitude and the Couple have relatively closed contours, almost a silhouette, the Figure, the Head and also the Study are more expressive. Complemented is the show by two studies for self-portraits, made during real physical journeys: one to an exhibition in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, where the artists contemplated the \u201cPortrait of Verdonck\u201d by Frans Hals (1627, National Galleries of Scotland, Edinburgh), the other was a visit of Auschwitz-Birkenau.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_2_placeholder<strong id=\"link4\">Natura Naturans<\/strong><br \/>\n11 January \u2013 15 February 2025<br \/>\nL\u2019Ariete Contemporanea<br \/>\nVia Marsili 7, Bologna<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.galleriaariete.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.galleriaariete.it<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>The group exhibition \u201cNatura Naturans\u201d, curated by Lucia Rossi and Ziyi Liu is a collaboration between L\u2019Ariete artecontemporanea, Bologna and the ZIAN gallery, Hangzhou. Thus, two presented artists are Italian (Francesco De Biasi (Castelfranco Veneto, 1993), Andrea Mazzola (Milano, 1980)), the other two originate from China (Jingge Dong (Beijing, 1989), Weixuan Guo (Quanzhou, 1974)). All have in common, that their subjects are related to nature, each one in their personal artistic language. While Francesco de Biasi\u2019s paintings remind greatly enlarged organic structures, Weixuan Guo\u2019s images seem to represent monochrome landscapes. Andrea Mazzola creates realistic or better almost hyper realistic or irreal situations and Jingge Dong\u2019s panoramas are interwoven with surrealistic elements, which could be nature ore urban environments. Because of transport problems some of the paintings haven\u2019t arrived in time for the opening, there will be a second inauguration on Saturday 8th February at 18 h.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_3_placeholder<strong id=\"link5\">Lodovico Pignatti Morano &#8211; Sussurri<\/strong><br \/>\n16 January \u2013 22 February 2025<br \/>\nGalleria B4<br \/>\nVia Vinazzetti 4\/b, Bologna (zona Porta San Vitale)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/galleriaB4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.facebook.com\/galleriaB4<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Lodovico Pignatti Morano (Imola, 1958) dedicates his exhibition \u201cSussurri\u201d (Whispers) to the ex-children who became adults now. From the 1980s until 2010, he photographed them during family parties in various places in Europe. Some seem to pose; others are captured in an unobserved moment. In any case, the children express their special character: cheerful, thoughtful, gentle, adventurous or jolly. And still, after all these years, they are talking to the author and the spectator.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_4_placeholder<strong id=\"link6\">Zeno Bertozzi \u2013 Trame Silenziose<\/strong><br \/>\n18 January \u2013 28 February 2025<br \/>\nStudio Cenacchi<br \/>\nVia Santo Stefano 63 (zona Porta Santo Stefano)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.studiocenacchi.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.studiocenacchi.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Geometric forms, rectangles, squares and round discs in homogeneous white are disrupted irregularly, almost organic. Zeno Bertozzi (Castel San Pietro Terme, 1994) scratches the surface of seemingly perfect exteriors to unveil the interior. Is it porous stone? Beehives? Anthills? Accident? Intention? With his meticulous interventions, the artist invites the public to immerse into his universe, listen to the \u201csilent music\u201d and enter into communication with his storyline, a journey to an inner place were the mind finds rest and balance.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_5_placeholder<strong id=\"link7\">Luca Freschi \u2013 Se chiudo gli occhi il buio non mi vede \u2013 Atto II<\/strong><br \/>\n23 January \u2013 2 March 2025<br \/>\nRaccolta Lercaro<br \/>\nVia Riva di Reno 57, Bologna<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.fondazionelercaro.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.fondazionelercaro.it<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>While the first part of the exhibition \u201cSe chiudo gli occhi il buio non mi vede\u201d (If I close my eyes the darkness doesn\u2019t see me) took place at the Bolognese gallery L\u2019Ariete Contemporanea, the second part, with works specially conceived for the large exhibition hall, is presented in the Raccolta Lercaro. It is a private museum, which originates from the collection of the cardinal Giacomo Lercaro. This religious focus is to be found in Luca Freschi\u2019s oeuvre, too, for example in the \u201cBreviari\u201d (breviaries). They remind the books of hours, which help the devout to find the rhythm of prayers. Another classical form &#8211; the triptych &#8211; recalls altarpieces. However, here they are sprinkled with everyday objects. While \u201cFine di Dio\u201d (End of God) hints to a religious interrogation, there are also the \u201dFinestre sul domani\u201d (Windows on Tomorrow) which are pointing to the future. Moreover, there are several \u201cCariatide\u201d, coming by their name from the Greek antiquity. Here they are made of porcelain vases. Similar containers form the steps of the \u201cStairway To Heaven\u201d. By the presentation, the exhibition gives a rhythm to allow meditation about the inside and outside of things and might reveal what the darkness can\u2019t see, when we close our eyes.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, there is also another exhibition \u201cLa linea verticale\u201d by Agostino Arrivabene in the Raccolta Lercaro.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_6_placeholder<strong id=\"link8\">Alessandra Spranzi \u2013 il quale cerca la sua bellezza, nel mondo qui descritto<\/strong><br \/>\n18 January \u2013 16 March 2025<br \/>\nCasa Morandi<br \/>\nVia Fondazza 36, Bologna (zona Porta Maggiore)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museibologna.it\/morandi\/schede\/storia-e-identita-954\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.museibologna.it\/morandi\/schede\/storia-e-identita-954\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Another form of silent contemplation offers Alessandra Spranzi (Milan, 1962) in her exhibition \u201cil quale cerca la sua bellezza, nel mondo qui descritto\u201d (approximatevly: who seeks his\/her beauty, in the world described here). She tried to approach Giorgio Morandi in her artistic language. Her presented series \u201cSul tavolo #80\u201d has as starting point a negative from 2014. It shows a page of the first monography dedicated to the Bolognese artist (1939, Arnaldo Beccaria) and a found copper pipe. For the current exhibition, Spranzi tried to find the appropriate print of the negative. So, it was her, who was searching for beauty. The result are nine photographs, varying slightly in colour and light. By the repetition, the contemplator can deepen their sense of sight in taking time to enhance it and reflect on it.<\/p>\n<p>As supplement, there is the audio video \u201cMetronomo\u201d from 2023, which describes time by its sound. The metronome\u2019s tone accompanies the encounter between a cup and a knife on a table. Meanwhile, the soundless second video \u201cMaking of Ein Tisch\u201d from 2018 focusses on further household objects to encourage another existential reflection.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_7_placeholder<strong id=\"link9\">Silvia B\u00e4chli \u2013 before<\/strong><br \/>\n22 January \u2013 30 March 2025<br \/>\nMuseo Morandi<br \/>\nVia Don Minzoni 14, Bologna (zona Porta Lame)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.museibologna.it\/morandi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.museibologna.it\/morandi\/<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Also, Silvia B\u00e4chli (Baden, 1956) deals with the oeuvre of Giorgio Morandi. Her five presented paintings in the Museo Morandi are inspired by the Bolognese painter, especially by his colours. Unlike the Bolognese master, she works relatively fast in her paintings. However, for her also the exhibition is important, which she sees as installation. Therefore, she experiments in her studio with the hanging until it fits.<\/p>\n<p>Early in her life, Silvia B\u00e4chli discovered Morandi by books. Later, when seeing his paintings in real, she noted that the colours in her books have not much to do with the illustrations she\u2019d seen before. Hence, one hint to the show\u2019s title. Moreover, the painter lived many years \u201cbefore\u201d her. The approach at this time was different from today. Even though, the two artists have the interest in the research of the essential in common and by the simplicity of form and gestures they want to evoke profound emotions.<\/p>\n<p>For the exhibition, B\u00e4chli selected several of Morandi\u2019s still-lifes to let them communicate with her works. They are meticulously chosen from a series of many other of her paintings made in connection with the presented still-lifes, which were \u201cbefore\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_8_placeholder<strong id=\"link10\">Carol Rama \u2013 Unique Multiples<\/strong><br \/>\n25 January \u2013 30 March 2025<br \/>\nVilla delle Rose<br \/>\nVia Saragozza 228\/230, Bologna (zona Porta Saragozza)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.museibologna.it\/mambo\/categorie\/villa-delle-rose-183\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.museibologna.it\/mambo\/categorie\/villa-delle-rose-183<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In first place, \u201cUnique Multiples\u201d shows prints by Carol Rama (Turin 1918-2015), resulting from the cooperation between the artist and printer, editor and gallerist Franco Masoero in the time from 1993 until 2005. The idea was to make the work of Carol Rama accessible to a larger audience. However, the artist had not limited herself to supplying the templates. Even after the printing process, she intervened and made unique pieces out of the multiples again. Divided into eight thematical chapters, there are quotes from the artist to give insights into her mental world. Moreover, there are several photographs of her. Showcases display work utensils, catalogues and prints of Rama\u2019s excursion to abstraction. Since her work is strongly autobiographical, the exhibition unfolds the story of her life and her artistic approach.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_9_placeholder<strong id=\"link11\">Elisabeth Scherffig &#8211; Observatorium<\/strong><br \/>\n18 January \u2013 5 April 2025<br \/>\nLabs Gallery<br \/>\nVia Santo Stefano 38, Bologna (zona Porta Santo Stefano)<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.labsgallery.it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.labsgallery.it<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Starting from urban landscapes, in particular architecture under construction, Elisabeth Scherffig (D\u00fcsseldorf, 1949) creates detailed drawings. The architectural aspect is evident in her view at Bologna, where she depicts the historical centre, but overdraws it with waved lines which remind a territory map. In other works, the unfinished or even deconstructed is on focus, for example, when she shows us a pile of paving stones. Here, the installed stones indicate roadworks. However, the unlaid cuboids are the main actor. Other images seem to be zoomed too close that one wonders what it could be. Some remind rather vegetal origins. \u201cObservatorium\u201d describes not only the precise study and reproduction by the artist. It also requires an attentive observation of the spectator, to discover Elisabeth Scherffig\u2019s accurate work, which she executes not only on paper with pastel or graphite. She uses gold leaf, organza, porcelain and steel, too.<\/p>\n<p>ngg_shortcode_10_placeholder<strong id=\"link12\">Claire Fontaine \u2013 Lotta<\/strong><br \/>\n18 January \u2013 1 May 2025<br \/>\nGalleria de\u2019Foscherari<br \/>\nVia Castiglione 2b, Bologna<br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #2c80aa;\"><a style=\"color: #2c80aa;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.defoscherari.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.defoscherari.com<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Already in the display window of the gallery de\u2019Foscherari a purple neon announces the activist focus of the exhibition: \u201cLotta\u201d (Fight). Underlined by the colour, it is obvious that this fight is a feminist one, undertaken by the conceptual artist entity Claire Fontaine. In the show, there are three times four faithful reproductions of Gustave Courbet\u2019s \u201cThe origine of the World\u201d from 1866. Though the vulva is hidden and tagged with different colours. This destructive intervention remits the construction of the female (sexual, symbolic, cultural and economic) from the time of the painting\u2019s realisation until nowadays. Moreover, it questions the concept of the authorship and adds a value to the professional reproduction at the same time as it criticises this practice.<\/p>\n<p>Claire Fontaine also applies this kind of expropriation, when they seize emojis for \u201cThe World\u2019s Mine Oyster\u201d and \u201cEgg\u201d and refer once more to the construction of the female for which the oyster and the egg stand in many cultures. Additionally, they are pointing to the Italian art critic and feminist activist Carla Lonzi, by mounting her book covers on bricks.<\/p>\nngg_shortcode_11_placeholder\n<p><strong id=\"link13\">Musei Civici Bologna \u2013 The Municipal Museums of Bologna<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-scaled.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-15361\" title=\"Christian Fogarolli - Corpo eterico\u201d (until 16 February 2025) Museo Civico d'Arte Industriale e Galleria Davia Bargellini\" src=\"https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"154\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-113x150.jpg 113w, https:\/\/www.artificialis.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Christian-Fogarolli1-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 154px) 100vw, 154px\" \/><\/a>Traditionally several of Bologna\u2019s Municipal Museums are hosting shows of contemporary art during the ART CITY.
