The curatorial choice focuses on the female artists present in the Farnesina Collection, in celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of its founding. After Berlin, the exhibition will travel to Vilnius and Valletta.

The curator highlights the concepts of identity, detachment, and coexistence: “This exhibition aims to open up a different perspective and underline the importance of questioning human centrality and fostering a deeper dialogue with the planet and other natural forms, seeking to break away from a relationship based on dominance and exploitation”.

This perspective is reflected in the intergenerational dialogue that runs through the exhibition, creating a comparison between artistic visions and diverse sensitivities, all united by the need to imagine new languages of coexistence. The exhibition opens with the work Fibonacci (1975) by Mario Merz, a symbol of transcending identity boundaries and embracing a global, intercultural vision.

Artists: Carla Accardi, Letizia Battaglia, Elena Bellantoni, Tomaso Binga, Silvia Camporesi, Gea Casolaro, Sarah Ciracì, Martina Della Valle, Loredana Di Lillo, Rä di Martino, Paola Gandolfi, Silvia Giambrone, Maria Lai, Ketty La Rocca, Elena Mazzi, Mario Merz, Elisa Montessori, Laura Pugno, Agnese Purgatorio, Marta Roberti, Marinella Senatore.

The project is promoted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, in collaboration with Cities Art Projects.
