Carol Rama – Seduzioni e Sortilegi

7_Untitled_67@

Studio la Città opens the spring season with: Seduzioni e Sortilegi, a large retrospective exhibition starting from March 12, 2022 and dedicated to the artist Carol Rama (1918-2015). With this exhibition, Studio la Città brings Carol Rama’s restless world to Verona for the first time and, for the occasion, chooses to reconfigure its large open space with an ad hoc installation to recreate the intimacy of the house. The exhibition, running until June 4, 2022, is curated by Marco Meneguzzo and organized in collaboration with the Sardi per l’Arte Foundation. The exhibition features a dedicated section with 12 photographs by the artist Bepi Ghiotti from the series Inside Carol Rama. Ghiotti’s works, courtesy of Galerie Isabella Bortolozzi have been realized over two years of photographic sessions inside Carol Rama’s house and they allow us to silently enter into the intimate space of the studio. Another photographic look inside Rama’s home-studio is represented by the black and white shots taken by Roberto Goffi, part of a series titled La Casa di Carol.
