GAMeC Bergamo: Lorenzo Giusti Confirmed, New Venue, and Summer Exhibitions
Lorenzo Giusti has been reappointed as the director of GAMeC in Bergamo for an additional five years, a role he took on starting with the exhibition 'Black Hole. Arte e matericità tra Informe e Invisibile' (2018-19). His tenure has involved navigating the challenges posed by the pandemic and the collaborative design of a new space at the old Palazzetto dello Sport. Until September 26, a free installation by Ernesto Neto is showcased at Sala delle Capriate, leading into the fall exhibition 'Nulla è perduto. Arte e materia in trasformazione'. Currently, visitors can enjoy a retrospective of Regina and the debut solo exhibition of Latvian artist Daiga Grantina (b. 1985, Saldus), titled 'Atem, Lehm', which delves into themes of light and matter, drawing inspiration from Paul Celan and Rainer Maria Rilke.
