Emilio Isgrò retrospective across three Milan venues marks definitive consecration

A retrospective of Emilio Isgrò, born in 1937 in Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto, is currently on display in Milan, organized by Marco Bazzini. The primary exhibition at Palazzo Reale showcases his Cancellature pieces, which uncover fresh interpretations through the act of erasing text. Additional works include visual poetry, pop art, and installations themed around Chopin, William Tell, and the Bologna massacre. The exhibition is enhanced by two satellite locations: Casa del Manzoni, featuring new pieces that pay tribute to Alessandro Manzoni, and Gallerie d'Italia, which displays Isgrò's cancellation of Hayez's portrait of Manzoni. This exhibition will be open until September 25, 2016, reaffirming the intricacy of Isgrò's work, despite ongoing lighting challenges.
