L鈥檃rcobaleno riposa sulla strada
In the wake of the almost ubiquitous retrospectives dedicated to the Swiss artist Meret Oppenheim, the Roman exhibition L鈥檃rcobaleno riposa sulla strada (the title comes from a poem written by the artist in 1933) explores this very echo.
A selection of artworks by Meret Oppenheim is placed in dialogue with works by artists of a recent generation. Meret Oppenheim鈥檚 courageous personality, worldview and artistic practice continue to fascinate even today: her exploration of the subconscious, of dreams, of the link between visual and lyrical creation, her reflection on her own position as a 鈥榳oman artist among artists鈥� (as she wrote to her parents in the 1930s) and her active participation in the feminist debates of the following years, are themes that are still very relevant today in the contemporary art scene.
