Sarah Cosulich on the New Vision for Pinacoteca Agnelli

Sarah Cosulich, director of Pinacoteca Agnelli in Turin, discusses the museum's transformation since 2022 into a dynamic contemporary art hub. The program spans three spaces: 'Beyond the Collection' reactivates the permanent collection with works by Canova, Canaletto, Picasso, Manet, Modigliani, and Matisse; temporary exhibitions feature pioneering contemporary artists like Sylvie Fleury, Lee Lozano, and Lucy McKenzie; and 'Pista 500' is an outdoor project on the rooftop test track, now a garden with sculptures and installations by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, VALIE EXPORT, Louise Lawler, and Rirkrit Tiravanija. Cosulich emphasizes rebalancing art history's male-centric narrative by highlighting women artists. The institution aims to be inclusive, attracting diverse audiences through interdisciplinary programming, events, and community initiatives.
