Fondazione Prada presents an extensive retrospective dedicated to the Italian artist Pino Pascali (1935-1968). The project explores the innovative character of his work, especially in relation to his sculptural production, which has had a fundamental impact on several generations of artists and critics over the last fifty years and continues to attract the attention of the international public. The exhibition project consists of four sections. The third section examines Pascali's interaction with his sculptures in photographs taken by Claudio Abate, Andrea Taverna and Ugo Mulas and how these images suggest imaginative ways of approaching his work.

The exhibition Outside the Soup emphasizes the potential of art to create new worldviews through radical imagination and artistic experimentation; placing care, solidarity, and trust at the forefront. Rather than building on a conceptual framework as the underpinning for the exhibition, the role of mutual and reciprocal relationships within the artistic ecosystem takes center stage. Outside the Soup brings together a large and diverse international group of artists who create narrative-based, highly visual works steeped in imagination. The exhibition will be activated through an extensive context- and community program of workshops and guided tours. With work by Marzia Migliora and other artists.

This exhibition is a collaborative effort between the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and the Royal Academy of Arts (RA) in London, showcasing Kentridge's draftsmanship as the curatorial focus. From his earliest charcoal drawing to the stop-motion short film series of drawing for the projections, and from film directing to stage performances, as well as his recent large-scale drawings of trees and flowers using ink and charcoal, the exhibition meticulously traces his creative trajectory and aesthetic dimensions. Over four decades of dedicated exploration in monochromatic expression, Kentridge has developed a fresh vocabulary of expanded translation from his drawings. In his works, the seemingly limitations of black and white breed boundless energy. With subtle delineation, he conveys depth and complexity, revealing intricate layers of meaning and emotion.
