Currently undergoing at Galleria Nazionale’s closing doors, the exhibition “Io dico Io – I say I” is an all-female group show curated by Cecilia Canziani, Lara Conte and Paola Ugolini.

The exhibition title is drawn from Carla Lonzi’s “Io dico Io – I say I”, reclaiming the urgency to speak in the first person, affirming our own subjectivity, and bringing together a multiplicity of selves that resonate with consonances and dissonances.

Conceived as an open investigation into the present, the exhibition brings together Italian artists of different generations who, in different historical and social contexts, have told their adventure of authenticity, returning their way of living in the world through a constellation of visions.

Exhibited artists: Carla Accardi, Pippa Bacca, Vanessa Beecroft, Elisabetta Benassi, Rossella Biscotti, Irma Blank, Renata Boero, Monica Bonvicini, Benni Bosetto, Chiara Camoni, Ludovica Carbotta, Lisetta Carmi, Monica Carocci, Gea Casolaro, Adelaide Cioni, Daniela Comani, Daniela De Lorenzo, Maria Adele Del Vecchio, Federica Di Carlo, Rä di Martino, Isabella Ducrot, Bruna Esposito, Cleo Fariselli, Giosetta Fioroni, Jacky Fleming, Linda Fregni Nagler, Silvia Giambrone, Laura Grisi, Ketty La Rocca, Beatrice Meoni, Marisa Merz, Sabrina Mezzaqui, Camilla Micheli, Marzia Migliora, Elisa Montessori, Maria Morganti, Liliana Moro, Alek O., Marinella Pirelli, Paola Pivi, Antonietta Raphaël, Anna Raimondo, Carol Rama, Marta Roberti, Suzanne Santoro, Marinella Senatore, Ivana Spinelli, Alessandra Spranzi, Grazia Toderi, Tatiana Trouvé, Francesca Woodman.
