Fondazione Imago Mundi and Fondazione Benetton Studi Ricerche present “Treviso Contemporanea”, a new platform for action in the contemporary sphere that sees the two foundations united under the banner of a shared project, for an investigation into the present time that combines past and future in an international perspective.
Three exhibitions in three different venues in Treviso, under the common theme "MAPPING THE WORLD".
“Treviso Contemporanea” comes to life with a series of three exhibitions that will open their doors to the public on Saturday, 5 February 2022, and run until Sunday, 29 May 2022. The result of close collaboration between the two institutions, the exhibitions are hosted in three different locations in the heart of the city: Ca’ Scarpa, San Teonisto church and the Gallerie delle Prigioni. Each exhibition has its own vision and style, but falls under the banner of a common theme, the very current need to “map the world” in historical and contemporary perception, from the traditional forms of cartographic reading of the earth’s surface to the artistic transcription of the relationship between experience and representation, through to the work of artists and communities from the indigenous Australian art world.
