Nicola Samorì's Classical Collapse Simultaneously Opens at Capodimonte and Ambrosiana

Nicola Samorì, an artist from Forlì born in 1977, is unveiling a dual exhibition named Classical Collapse at Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte in Naples and Veneranda Pinacoteca Ambrosiana in Milan. The event is organized by Eike Schmidt, Monsignor Alberto Rocca, and curator Demetrio Paparoni, showcasing over 50 pieces. The Naples display is exclusively comprised of paintings in the Sala Causa, featuring works like The Roman Butterfly and Solstizio d’inferno. In Milan, tall sculptures are exhibited alongside Renaissance reliefs, including a large painting adjacent to Raphael's cartoon for the School of Athens. Samorì's engagement with AI is highlighted in The perfect girl. Monsignor Rocca explores the connection of the works to historical painting, while Schmidt remarks on the contrasting themes: Dionysian in Naples and Apollonian in Milan.
