A new exhibit opens at the Marino Marini Museum on February 4, entitled World-Wielding and dedicated to Dutch artist Rob Johannesma. The show is an anthology of  Johannesma’s work, from 1997 to 2011. on display in the concept project for the Museum’s crypt are several videos and monumental photographic collages, in which the images of newspapers used as sources of communication are placed in dialogue with the grand pictorial tradition of the Northern Renaissance. In the videos, the artist focuses on the theme of light, in particular, the alternation of light and dark, the process of creation of the images in the new media, and the same process of vision.

The show will run until April 12 and the exhibit hours are every day from 10 am to 5 pm, closed on Sunday and Tuesday.

Museo Marino Marini is located in Piazza San Pancrazio.
