Summer 2023 Art Exhibitions Across the Dolomites: From Rovereto to Bolzano
The summer of 2023 in the Dolomites region, encompassing Trentino, Alto Adige, and Veneto, presents a cultural program that intertwines contemporary art with historical legacy. At Mart in Rovereto, visitors can explore a Klimt exhibition featuring Giuditta II and Le tre età della donna, along with a comprehensive survey of Leonor Fini and Fabrizio Clerici that showcases over 400 pieces, as well as a retrospective of Mario Reviglione. MUSE in Trento marks its tenth anniversary with Anima Mundi, highlighting Koen Vanmechelen's taxidermied chickens. In Bolzano, Museion presents Asad Raza's Plot, which includes a massive 60-ton artificial soil installation. Additionally, Castello del Buonconsiglio exhibits Dosso Dossi's ceiling paintings, while Castel Caldes features works by Bartolomeo Bezzi.
