Le novità del mondo dell’arte selezionate da Artbox su Sky Arte
The new episode of Artbox, a weekly program on Sky Arte airing April 28, surveys current exhibitions across Italy. It features Isaac Julien's show "Museum Dreams" at gres art 671 in Bergamo, running until October 4, where the British artist presents five multi-screen video installations from the late 1990s to today. The episode also covers the exhibition "Etruschi e Veneti. Acque, culti e santuari" at Palazzo Ducale in Venice, exploring water cults through ancient artifacts including recent finds from San Casciano dei Bagni; the show "Giovanni Antonio Bazzi detto il Sodoma. Alla conquista del Rinascimento" at Museo Accorsi-Ometto in Turin; and a profile of Spanish artist Almudena Romero, who uses photosynthesis to create images on leaves. Regular segments include a feature on Symbolism by Maria Vittoria Baravelli and an arts news roundup.
This episode matters because it highlights how Artbox continues to serve as a vital weekly digest for the Italian art scene, bringing together major institutional shows, emerging artists, and historical surveys in a single accessible broadcast. By featuring both international figures like Isaac Julien and local discoveries such as the Etruscan-Venetic artifacts, the program underscores the breadth of contemporary curatorial practice and the ongoing relevance of regional museums and collections in Italy's cultural landscape.
