Rome, August 20 (LaPresse) – Intesa Sanpaolo closed the first half of 2025 with 420,000 visitors at its Gallerie d’Italia museums in Milan, Naples, Turin, and Vicenza, and is launching a rich autumn program as part of its Progetto Cultura, a long-term initiative aimed at promoting art and culture in Italy.
On September 11, the Turin gallery will open a multimedia installation by Dutch artist Erik Kessels, who will transform over 60,000 images from the Intesa Sanpaolo Publifoto Archive into a single, AI-animated, dynamic visual composition.
On October 3, Vicenza will host Cristina Mittermeier. La grande saggezza, a show dedicated to the renowned Mexican photographer and activist, featuring new works reflecting on the planet’s beauty and fragility.
From October 9, also in Turin, the spotlight will be on Jeff Wall, one of the most influential contemporary photographers, with an exhibition covering over 40 years of his work, blending staged photography and documentary observation.
On November 12, in collaboration with the National Cinema Museum, a new exhibition opens in Turin dedicated to photographer Riccardo Ghilardi, known for his portraits of film stars, in a visual journey celebrating the history of cinema.
In Naples, starting November 20, Donne nella Napoli spagnola. Un altro Seicento will highlight the often-overlooked female contribution to 17th-century art, bringing lesser-known figures to the forefront.
The season concludes in Milan on November 28 with Eterno e visione, a major exhibition on Neoclassicism between Rome and Milan, featuring works by Canova, Bossi, and Appiani, organized in collaboration with the Bibliothèque nationale de France.
Michele Coppola, Director of the Gallerie d’Italia, emphasized the diversity and cultural value of the initiatives, designed to engage a wide audience and strengthen the Bank’s cultural role in Italy.
