Leonor Fini's Theatrical Works at Galleria Tommaso Calabro, Milan

Galleria Tommaso Calabro in Milan presents a new exhibition exploring Leonor Fini's theatrical designs, including set and costume sketches. The show highlights her collaborations with major European opera houses such as the Opéra de Paris, the Royal House in London, and La Scala in Milan. Works on display include oil paintings, a four-panel screen alternating between macabre and idyllic imagery, and numerous unrealized costume and set designs. The exhibition draws from a private New York collection assembled through purchases and gifts. Fini's early exposure to disguise—her mother forced her to wear masks and costumes after separating from her husband—shaped her lifelong fascination with theater. The exhibition runs in Milan, thirty years after the artist's death.
