Exhibition – “Pier Paolo Calzolari – Ideal House”
From Friday, November 17, 2023, to Sunday, April 7, 2024, at the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco – Villa Paloma. Pier Paolo Calzolari is known for the formal originality of his multidisciplinary practice (painting, sculpture, but also performances conceived
as “acts of passion”), which often resorts to the use of organic materials such as tobacco leaves, fire, or frost to create “installation works” that question the boundaries of contemporary art. A retrospective exhibition, “Ideal House” is a rare opportunity to discover the world of an artist who has left his mark on art history through his often unconventional approach to the various practices of the plastic arts.
