Lost in Italy

Lost in Italy is an exhibition that explores the significant role played by Italy as an international artistic hub during the post-war decades of the 1950s and 60s, and its particular influence on European and North American artists of the time. Curated by Francesco Bonami, the show sets out to expand a well-rehearsed art historical narrative dedicated to this exchange, by considering a broad range of themes, events and artists. The exhibition includes works by Francis Bacon, Alberto Burri, Alexander Calder, Maurizio Cattelan, Marcel Duchamp, Lucio Fontana, Yves Klein, Jannis Kounellis, Pino Pascali, Robert Rauschenberg, Man Ray, Piero Manzoni, Salvatore Scarpitta, Richard Serra and Cy Twombly.

The publication includes an exclusive conversation with the curator of the exhibition, Francesco Bonami.
