Chiara Calore's 'Non voltarti adesso' at Museo Civico delle Cappuccine, Bagnacavallo
The 'Non voltarti adesso' exhibition, featuring the work of Chiara Calore and curated by Milovan Farronato, is currently on display at the Museo Civico delle Cappuccine in Bagnacavallo until November 8, 2026. The exhibition, set in the former Convento di San Francesco, draws its title from Nicolas Roeg's film 'Don't Look Now.' It delves into the enigma of perception through artworks that blend historical art references with modern uncertainties. Notable pieces include 'Twins' (2026), which portrays the artist alongside her sister, and 'Reflection' (2026), depicting a woman gazing into a mirror that shows 'Twins.' Additional works such as 'Grido' (2026) and 'Lacrimoni' (2026) reference Caravaggio and Gentileschi, highlighting themes of desire and emotion.
