Villa Croce's 'Autunno Blu' Explores Blue Across Five Exhibition Paths
The 'Autunno Blu' exhibition at the Museo di Arte Contemporanea di Villa Croce in Genoa is currently closed due to the pandemic. Curated by Francesca Serrati and Anna Orlando, the show features artworks from Milan, Rovereto, and London, focusing on the theme of blue and its connection to Genoa's identity. A highlight is 'ArteJeans,' showcasing 24 pieces on denim by Italian artists, originally part of the spring 2021 'Genova Jeans' event. Featured artists include Marco Lodola, Emilio Isgrò, Giovanni Politi, Enzo Cacciola, Carolina Mazzolari, and Gioni David Parra. Additionally, the exhibition celebrates Rocco Borella's centenary and reinterprets a dialogue between Yves Klein and Bernardo Strozzi, along with works by Fulvio Magurno and an installation by Ben Patterson.
