Angeli – Messaggeri, custodi e viandanti, le sublimi creature dall’Antico al Contemporaneo

Over the centuries, angels have captured the collective imagination to such an extent that they have become an indispensable motif in art across its various forms of expression. Through a selection of works—paintings, sculptures, and works on parchment—drawn from museum collections and private collections, the exhibition presents a thematic journey dedicated to the role that angelic figures play in the Western artistic tradition. The project aims to trace their iconographic evolution in their dual role as a bridge between the human and the divine, while also offering the public food for thought on the relationship between the visible and the invisible.
