Days of exhibition
An Open-Air Atelier
From Saturday, 16 October, 2021 until Sunday, 13 February, 2022, the Pinacoteca Agnelli in Turin is staging the exhibition Maeght Foundation: An Open-Air Atelier. The exhibition will be held partially in the time-honoured rooms of the Pinacoteca (Art Gallery) and partially in the new rooftop garden of the Lingotto, the one-time test track of the former FIAT factory, now renamed Pista 500.
The exhibition is curated by Daniela Ferretti and organised by the Pinacoteca Agnelli in partnership with the Fondation Marguerite et Aimé Maeght and MondoMostre, with FIAT as the main partner on the project.
On show will be seventy-seven works by great twentieth-century artists, including Braque, Calder, Chagall, Giacometti, Léger, Matisse and Miró, who alongside other masters shared in the passion and vision of the extraordinary project conceived by Aimé Maeght and his wife Marguerite that gave rise to a veritable “open-air atelier” on the hillsides of Saint Paul de Vence in south-eastern France. The exhibition focuses on that group of artists who were the first to grasp the potential of a new young couple who, driven by a genuine love for art in all of its forms and blessed with a rare level of managerial ability, staked out a position for themselves at the very forefront of the global art market.
