Roots

Biography of a Traveler: Exhibition in Italy

Primo Piano LivinGallery

is pleased to present the contemporary art exhibition titled BIOGRAPHY OF A TRAVELER: Roots, Loss and Landings

Curated by Dores Sacquegna

The exhibition will be on display from November 16 to 30, 2024 at the Palmieri Foundation in Lecce.

If there is an object capable of representing travel, it is indeed a suitcase. Because it is travel, freedom, but also detachment or exile. Two aspects that art has told in so many different ways especially in recent years, now that the classic suitcase, that square parallelepiped with a handle, no longer exists.
