Siluetas - Bodies in movement

If the first chapter of the Summer series was dedicated to the birth of conceptual art by examining three works by Robert Barry belonging to the collection of Antonio Dalle Nogare, the second chapter is dedicated to artists who are rooted within the conceptual, but have taken their own paths throughout time: the body – whether it is the artist’s or the viewer’s – becomes the centre of artistic practice. We will talk about performance, photography, dance and happenings. From Ana Mendieta to Charles Atlas, we will see how the use of the human body changes in the works in the collection of Antonio Dalle Nogare from the 1970s to today.
