The last five years studying art history has taught me that there is still so much more about art to explore: new artists and art movements that I have not delved into too deeply as yet.
I will soon begin a journey in which I hope to discover new artists and aesthetics that influenced 20th century Italy. My journey will be centred around the exhibitions, museums and galleries in Milan. One exhibition I plan to visit soon after arriving is Margherita Sarfatti at Milan’s Museo del Novecento which will run until 24 February 2019.
In viewing this exhibition I hope to discover more about this remarkable woman who was a journalist and art critic, and view some works of influential artists of the Novecento Italiano modern art movement whom Margherita championed during the 1920’s era of Mussolini and fascism.
Exhibition details for Margherita Sarfatti at the Museo del Novecento.
Check out the Museo del Novecento’s collection which includes exhibits by Picasso, Kandinsky, Georges Braque, Umberto Boccioni (including his sculpture Unique Forms of Continuity in Space, 1913).
To come… Margherita Sarfatti – the exhibition review.
