Palazzo Te torna a celebrare, a distanza di trent'anni dalla grande monografica del 1989, il genio di Giulio Romano. L'esposizione, allestita nelle Sale Napoleoniche, indaga la relazione tra immagini erotiche del mondo classico e invenzioni figurative prodotte nella prima metà del Cinquecento in Italia, esponendo dipinti, disegni e oggetti preziosi provenienti da venti istituzioni, tra cui il Metropolitan Museum of Art di New York e l'Ermitage di San Pietroburgo. Concentrandosi sul lavoro di Giulio Romano, il percorso espositivo evidenzia la capillare diffusione di un vasto repertorio di rappresentazioni erotiche nella cultura artistica cinquecentesca e svela le influenze esistenti tra cultura alta e cultura bassa nella produzione di tali immagini. Exhibition: Palazzo Te, Mantova, Italy (06.10.2019-06.01.2020).

A showcase of the Courtauld Gallery's outstanding Parmigianino collection. Accompanying an exhibition at London's Courtauld Gallery, this stunning catalog presents works by the Renaissance artist Girolamo Francesco Maria Mazzola, better known as Parmigianino (1503-1540). Fundamentally a draftsman at heart, Parmigianino drew relentlessly during his relatively short life, and around a thousand of his drawings have survived. The Courtauld's collection comprises twenty-four sheets. In preparation for the catalog, new photography and technical examinations have been carried out on all the works, revealing two new drawings that were previously unknown, hidden underneath their historic mounts. They have also helped to better identify connections between some of the drawings and the finished paintings for which they were conceived. This stunning illustrated catalog presents the whole Courtauld collection and sheds light on an artist who approached every technique with unprecedented freedom and produced innovative works that are still admired by artists and collectors today.

The Art of Experiment

Case studies of private art collections recorded during the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries in Mantua. This work seeks to show how the collectors' taste changed during this period and how these changes are reflected in the collections' display, and also seeks to contribute to the understanding of the original context of works of art in sixteenth and early seventeenth century private houses in a courtly city.
