On April 14, 2026, Galleria Giovanni Bonelli will unveil its new location at via Arcivescovo Romilli 20, featuring the exhibition 'The Future Will Be Weird,' under the curation of Denis Isaia. This showcase focuses on the Italian artist Mattia Moreni (1920–1999) and includes pieces from Nicola Samorì, Pierpaolo Campanini, Giovanni Morbin, and Alessandro Pessoli, exploring themes of power dynamics. Notably, Samorì will display 'La degenerazione di Daniel' (2026), while Campanini contributes an untitled work from 2013. The second floor will delve into cultural regression, featuring artists like Giovanni Blanco and Vedovamazzei.
