exhibition · 2026-05-04

Francesco Vezzoli (born 1971 in Brescia) presents the exhibition 'Homo Ab Homine Natus' at Galleria Franco Noero in Turin, curated by Filippo Bisagni. The show blends childlike and occult elements, incorporating a marble head from the late Republican period (c. 50 BC–37 AD) emerging from torn cement garments in the work 'C-CUT'. Vezzoli reworks baroque pastiche and classical fragments, addressing historical gaps with a light yet profound touch. The exhibition runs at the gallery's Turin location.
