“Light of Southern Italy” Exhibition
La Galleria - Italian Cultural Institute of New York
This event has ended.
The “Neapolitan School” of the 19th century encompasses a wide range of artistic schools, stylistic currents and geographic regions on the peninsula, stretching from Molise to the Abruzzo region and from Campania to Puglia. This exhibition traces the evolution of painting in this area primarily during the 19th century and into the 20thcentury. This is the first time that these unique 34 works from private collections will be on view in the United States.
This exhibit honors those forebears that embarked on a most courageous journey across the ocean to ensure a better life for their families. It is also a reminder for Italian-Americans of their vibrant and beautiful cultural heritage.
This Exhibit is curated by Marco Bertoli
