FRANCESCO SOMAINI – SOMAINI ON THE EDGE OF THE VOLCANO
In conjunction with Milan Art Week, the Somaini Foundation is organizing special curator-led tours of the exhibition Somaini on the Edge of the Volcano. The Magical Etna Series. Tribute to Maria Corti, on view in its spaces until 29 May 2026.
The Somaini Foundation presents a large selection of the artist’s 1999 inks from the Magic Etna series. The exhibition, in collaboration with the Maria Corti Foundation of the University of Pavia, opens the program of exhibitions and publications launched for the centenary of the birth of Francesco Somaini (1926-2005), which also includes the open-access publication of the Catalogue Raisonné of his graphic, calcographic, and photographic works.
Furthermore, it is possible to see for the first time the collection of poetic writings and project drawings created by the artist in the 1970s, brought together in a portfolio titled Corpo Urbano, the subject of a volume published by Johan&Levi, edited by Fulvio Irace, now in bookstores.
