Marisa Merz and Shilpa Gupta: visibileinvisibile

A double solo exhibition of two undisputed protagonists of international contemporary art, Marisa Merz and Shilpa Gupta

MAXXI – Museo nazionale delle arti del XXI secolo (L’Aquila), Piazza Santa Maria Paganica, 15, 67100 L'Aquila AQ

The exhibition, whose title is inspired by the famous unfinished text by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, The Visible and the Invisible, released posthumously in 1964, welcomes around 50 works by the two artists, creating a dialogue between their works suspended in time and space , which eliminates distances and gives them new perspectives and meanings.

Eastern and Western cultures meet and confront each other in the baroque halls of the museum which favor the intimate and private dimension, in a tense and precise conversation on the themes of the visible and the invisible, the said and the unsaid, the concrete and the abstract by suggesting and evoking unexpected artistic, philosophical and political reflections.
