Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo Celebrates 30 Years with 'La bella estate' Exhibition
The Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo marks its 30th anniversary with a group exhibition titled 'A quei tempi era sempre festa' at Palazzo Re Rebaudengo in Guarene, curated by Tom Eccles, Liam Gillick, and Mark Rappolt. The show draws inspiration from Cesare Pavese's novel 'La bella estate' and focuses on the 1990s, a period when the Young British Artists dominated the art scene. It features works from the foundation's collection, including Philippe Parreno's Christmas tree installation. The exhibition highlights the transformation of the 17th-century palazzo from a private residence into a public exhibition space, which began in 1995. Notable pieces include Maurizio Cattelan's 'La Rivoluzione siamo noi' and Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster's bedroom installation. A limited edition of 500 copies of Pavese's novel, with a cover by the curators, accompanies the show.
