The Center for Italian Modern Art Presents: Giorgio de Chirico and Guilio Paolini

The 2016-2017 season of the Center for Italian Modern Art presents an exhibition featuring Giorgio de Chirico (1888-1978) and Giulio Paolini (b.1940).  The presentation explores the relationship between Paolini, one of Italy’s greatest conceptual artists and Italian modern master, de Chirico, shedding new light on the key inspirational role de Chirico played not only in the development of Surrealism but also in the emergence of Conceptual art.

By presenting the two artists in direct dialogue for the first time, the exhibition explores the themes of the enigma, self-portrait and classical antiquity, and presents over 40 works of historical and contemporary nature including site-specific works spanning a broad spectrum of mediums.

CIMA is open exclusively for guided tours, which take place on Fridays and Saturdays at 11am, 1pm, 3pm, and 5pm. The exhibition is on view October 14, 2016 – June 24, 2017.

Adults $10, free for Students (with a valid ID) and Members.

Online reservations required.
