200 Works By Female Artists Make A Statement At Museum Of Modern Art In Warsaw

The Museum of Modern Art in Warsaw has launched "The Woman Question 1550-2025," a landmark exhibition featuring 200 works by nearly 150 female artists spanning five centuries. Curated by Alison M. Gingeras and designed by Dorota Terlecka of Biuro Kreacja, the show is organized into nine thematic sections within the museum’s new contemporary building. The exhibition design utilizes a minimalist approach, featuring neutral palettes and intentional spatial proportions to ensure the diverse artworks remain the primary focus.

In a Piacenza church, the light of designer Davide Groppi becomes a whisper suspended in time

In una chiesa di Piacenza la luce del designer Davide Groppi diventa un sussurro sospeso nel tempo

Renowned lighting designer Davide Groppi has unveiled a major anthological exhibition titled "Un’ora di luce" (An Hour of Light) at Volumnia, a gallery housed within the deconsecrated Church of Sant’Agostino in Piacenza. Curated by Marco Sammicheli, the retrospective spans forty years of Groppi’s career, featuring iconic works like Sampei and Moon alongside new site-specific debuts. The exhibition is structured in two parts: a series of enclosed "utopias" that create intimate light environments, followed by a dialogue between his minimalist fixtures and the soaring, historic architecture of the church.
