Posted by Adam Busiakiewicz:
The Pinacoteca Ambrosiana in Milan and the Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte in Naples have just opened a new exhibition of works by the contemporary artist Nicola Samorì entitled Classical Collapse. As the name suggests, the show features many Old Master motifs which have been defaced by contemporary sculptural (plastic vs. pictorial, apparently) interventions. Click on the link to see more (beware, some of works may be shocking to lovers of painting).
The exhibtions will run until January and March 2026 respectively.
