To Discover - "Mario Convertino. Designer of the Imaginary"
The exhibition dedicated to Mario Convertino explores the work of a key figure in Italian visual culture between the 1970s and the 1990s, a protagonist of a profound transformation in the languages of communication. Through iconic album covers created for artists such as Lucio Battisti and Franco Battiato, alongside experiments spanning photography, publishing, television and visual arts, the exhibition reveals the complexity of an author who imagined new forms of communication and left a lasting mark on the collective imagination.
