Zoran Mušic's Recreated Zurich Room and Merlini Collection at Palazzo Fortuny

Palazzo Fortuny in Venice presents two exhibitions: a reconstruction of Zoran Mušic's Zurich Room from the Dornacher sisters' villa in Zollikon, and the Giuseppe Merlini Collection spanning 20th-century Italian art. The Mušic room, originally painted on plaster, linen, and jute, was saved from decay by Paolo Cadorin, who transferred the plaster onto aluminum panels. The exhibition also features Mušic works from 1947-1953. Upstairs, Merlini's collection includes works by Wildt, Fontana, Melotti, Modigliani, de Pisis, Savinio, de Chirico, Campigli, Burri, Turcato, and Dorazio. The shows mark the museum's restart after a decade-long collaboration with Axel Vervoordt.
