Claudia Ferrarini's 'Visioni Urbane' Bridges Milan and Venice in Hotel Exhibition

exhibition · 2026-07-30

Claudia Ferrarini's exhibition 'Visioni Urbane' is on view until September 30 at the BW Premier Collection CHC Continental Venice, transforming the hotel into a dialogue between hospitality and contemporary art. The show presents two complementary series: large oil paintings referencing Greco-Roman classicism, and watercolors from 'La mia Milano' and 'Le Chicche di Milano' capturing intimate views of Milan's architecture, including San Siro Stadium, Sforza Castle, and Brera. Ferrarini, a Milanese artist working across painting, illustration, and artistic tattooing for over thirty years, uses her en plein air watercolors to reveal hidden details of Milan, a series that has gained social media following. The Venetian setting adds a symbolic layer, reflecting two culturally rich Italian cities. Ferrarini's Studio-Atelier in Milan plans to launch public workshops and painting sessions in autumn 2026.
