Nancy Genn: Inner Landscapes

Marignana Arte hosts a solo exhibition dedicated to one of the most significant Californian artists of the post World War II period, Nancy Genn. “Inner Landscapes” spans fifty years of the artist’s career, illustrating the different phases of her work, from the three-dimensional handmade papers of her early period to rare intaglio prints from glass plates, and the most recent mixed-media works on canvas.

Thanks to her artistic practice, she has been associated with artists such as Carla Accardi, Alberto Burri, Giuseppe Capogrossi, Lucio Fontana, Emilio Vedova, Robert Motherwell, Louise Nevelson, Jackson Pollock and Mark Rothko. Her artistic research involves constant experimentation through different media, developed during her travels, especially in Japan. Her work is part of permanent collections of important Venetian cultural institutions such as the Giorgio Cini Foundation, the Fortuny Museum and the Ca’ Pesaro Museum of Modern Art.
