September 20th, 2021

From 28 October 2021 to 30 January 2022, Palazzo Reale in Milan will host Corpus Domini. From the glorified body to the ruins of the soul, a major exhibition curated by Francesca Alfano Miglietti.


The exhibition is sponsored and produced by Palazzo Reale and Comune di Milano-Cultura, in collaboration with Marsilio Arte and Tenderstories.


111 works - installations, sculptures, drawings, paintings, video installations, and photographs - by 34 internationally recognized artists - from Yael Bartana to Christian Boltanski, from Gino de Dominicis to Urs Lüthi, from Carol Rama to Michal Rovner, to name but a few- some of them true icons of contemporary art, are on display for the first time in Italy to collectively capture the multiplicity of the ways in which the human being is represented.

A special section is dedicated to Lea Vergine, an unforgettable presence in the history of the relationship between art and the body. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue published by Marsilio Editori.
