MAN Nuoro 2016/2017 Season: German Expressionism and Alessandro Pessoli
The MAN – Museo d'Arte Provincia di Nuoro opens its 2016/2017 season on October 21 with 'Soggettivo-Primordiale', a survey of German Expressionism featuring over 100 works from the Osthaus Museum Hagen. Concurrently, a solo show by Italian artist Alessandro Pessoli focuses on his animated drawings. Director Lorenzo Giusti discusses the season's identity: temporal crossings, new languages (especially painting's relevance), and internationalization. The museum also manages the reopened Museo Ciusa. Giusti notes that 50-60% of exhibitions are fully in-house, 25% co-produced, and only a minority are itinerant. The budget remains uncertain due to public institution approval timelines. The museum aims to improve governance and find a permanent home for its historical collection.
