Palazzo Reale hosts the exhibition of Valerio Adami: “Pittore di idee” (“Painter of ideas”). The artist, born in Bologna in 1935, trained with Achille Funi at the Brera Academy before moving to Paris where he attended Sebastian Matta and Wifredo Lam. The first solo exhibition was opened in Milan in 1959, and then embarked on an international transversal career, from east to west of the globe. Initially influenced by the expressionism of Francis Bacon, he approached figuration and pop art, elaborating a similar narrative to comics characterized by black contours, flat backgrounds and a deep symbolism. Sixty-five years of career are exhibited in this anthology, edited by Marco Meneguzzo. Until September 22.
