A new beginning. The Pinacoteca di Brera reopens its doors to the public, offering free admission to its halls until next autumn. The public is permitted to visit the Collection by making reservations online which will allow visitors to enjoy the Collection’s masterpieces in small groups, interacting with these works through an intimate dialogue set to last an hour-and-a-half. Thanks to online reservations, the visits are personalised. Each guest is asked to make reservations on the platform brerabooking.org, indicating their age and any children that may be accompanying them during their visit. On the basis of the information entered, they are assigned a link which details the support tools for each visit, such as the Brera Box, a sort of gift box with various offerings to suit the various types of visitors. Acting as curator of their own museum itinerary, visitors are guided in creating the instruments useful to their discovering the Collection. The itineraries are particularly new in the sense that they now exclude museum halls of smaller dimensions, in which safe distances between visitors cannot be maintained with any surety. The Pinacoteca has also rethought its programming for 2020 with a serious online dimension, while maintaining its rich calendar of events, starting with the year-long celebrations of Raphael in honour of the anniversary of his death, which will resume in September with a focus on the exhibitions of The Marriage of the Virgin from 1806 to 1977.
Neshat creates highly lyrical narratives, as well as politically charged visions, that question issues of power, religion, race, and the relationships between past and present, East and West, individual and collective.
A major retrospective dedicated to Man Ray. Thanks to an important core of original materials (vintage prints, negatives, collages, documents) and through a thematic path (self-portraits, muses, nudes, rayographs and solarizations, fashion), this exhibition proposes the rediscovery of a unique artist and a brilliant pioneer.
Created to enhance the museum’s collections, the exhibition displays a collection of “exotic” artefacts brought from different parts of the world by Milanese citizens, enthusiasts, businessmen, travellers, researchers.
