A Room with a View. Italian and International Art in private collections in Salento (1963-2015) does not merely present works coming from private collections of the territory, but it questions the transition between the domestic dimension to the institutional space, from the individual choice to the possibility of a collective narration.
The exhibition itinerary displays 27 works by Carla Accardi, A-One (Anthony Clark), Stefano Arienti, Massimo Bartolini, Gabriele Basilico, Mirella Bentivoglio, Joseph Beuys, Luigi Ghirri, Peter Halley,Jannis Kounellis, Giuseppe Maraniello, Nunzio, Luigi Ontani, Mimmo Paladino, Pino Pinelli, Mimmo Rotella, Andrea Sala, Mario Schifano, Ettore Spalletti and Franco Vimercati.
Through this core group, varied in the styles and media employed, the exhibition becomes a non-linear map of taste, perspective and the responsibility of collecting, highlighting how the Salento region can become not only a landing place for the artworks, but also a critical viewpoint from which to rethink certain specific trajectories in art over recent decades.
