The themed programme INNESTI 22, organised by the Galleria d'Arte Sacra dei Contemporanei and Isorropia Homegallery, presents works by five artists: Alessandro Boezio, Marco Circhirillo, Paolo Maggis, Ilaria Miotto and Silvia Paci.

The exhibition meanders through the rooms of the museum collection. Each of the five artists exhibits one or two of their works in dialogue with the paintings and sculptures in the permanent collection.

The choice of works, some of which are site-specific, aims to resonate the many facets of the sacred that characterise the entire GASC collection.

In faithfulness to their own artistic research and without the need to emulate the iconography of the Christian religious tradition, the works of the nine artists are grafted into the museum tour, bringing out and echoing the great anthropological and biblical themes of the body, modesty and intimacy, memory and origin, unity and multiplicity, temptation and ecstasy.

The INNESTI 22 project develops one of GASC's original aims: to involve several artists, each with their own personal creative research, on a shared project. The museum collection at Villa Clerici has in fact been formed since the 1950s by welcoming, as in a cenacle, artists interested in tackling the theme of the sacred.

INNESTI 22 was born from the collaboration between GASC and Isorropia Homegallery (a non-profit cultural association) and constitutes the second annual encounter dedicated to young artists who confront themselves with the theme of the sacred.
