Nasi Per L'Arte

Joanna De Vos, Giacinto di Pietrantonio, Caro Verbeek

The exhibition Nasi Per L'Arte was born from the encounter between two curatorial noses belonging to Joanna De Vos and Melania Rossi. The nose is a navigator, guiding us through life; a delicate vehicle that detects and determines. It narrows and dilates at the same time, creating circular communication between the inner and the outer world. For this exhibition and book, a selection of contemporary artists such as Francis Alys, Michael Borremans, Maurizio Cattelan, Laura de Coninck, Mariana Ferratto, Peter de Cupere, Jan Fabre, Mariana Ferratto, Sofie Muller, Luigi Ontani, Daniele Puppi and others, were in dialogue with artists of the permanent collection of Palazzo Merulana, Roma, and with loans of works by Oscar Jespers, Rene Magritte, George Minne, Constant Permeke, Leon Spilliaert, and others. Text in English and Italian. AUTHORS: Joanna De Vos is an art historian and curator based in Antwerp, Belgium.
