Exhibition

Ron Mueck

An invitation to discover the first solo exhibition in Italy by Australian sculptor Ron Mueck. His realistic yet mysterious works create immediate empathy with the visitor. Prominent in the exhibition is the monumental 2017 installation Mass, from the collection of the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, and exhibited in Europe for the first time. The spectacular installation comes as a physical experience, as well as a visual one, and it consists of one hundred enormous sculptures in the shape of a human skull, an enduring iconographic symbol. The exhibition also features new works that illustrate the evolution in Mueck's sculptural practice and iconic works from his career from the Fondation Cartier collection.
