Barbara Nahmad. Oltremare
Crespi, A 2019, Barbara Nahmad. Oltremare, Federico Rui Arte contemporanea, Milan | 2021, enhanced rE-print, EdiXion, Milan.
Barbara Nahmad (Milan, 1967) has always used painting as a language of challenge and research, traversing themes that range from the intimacy of bodies to social visions. This new series of paintings dedicated to the Baltic marks a turn towards contemplation: the sea becomes a mental space where to seek a new horizon, between desire and omen, between our finite nature and the landscape of the infinite.

Pérez, M 2021, Fotografía y Política. La lucha por la democracia en Panamá, virtual exhibition catalogue | 2021, enhanced rE-print, EdiXion, Dubai.
Photography as archaeology of the present: news images are transformed into tessellae of a historical mosaic to reconstruct Panama’s most tormented decades. The project stems from collaboration with the Fototeca de Panamá and from the curatorial strategy of combining public archives with family collections and journalistic materials. For thirty years, until 1989, Panama became the theatre of military coups, civil protests, fierce political repression, up to the American invasion. The enhanced version of the volume integrates an immersive soundscape with gunshots, voices and urban noises that restore the dramatic nature of those years. In this match, emerging democracy and major international interests for control of the Canal confronted each other.

A collection of drawings by the legendary couturier Cristóbal Balenciaga, dating back to the 1950s, owned by Lorenzo Riva, who served as Artistic Director of Balenciaga in Paris during the 1980s. This remarkable collection, curated by Marina Pizziolo and Romano Ravasio, has never been exhibited before.
The works, which reveal the early concepts behind Cristóbal Balenciaga’s now-iconic lines and designs, offer insight into his creative process between 1950 and 1958—a period in which he paved the way for designers such as De la Renta, Courrèges, Ungaro and Givenchy.

Pizziolo, M 2024, Bahar Heidarzade. Le mie pietre sono aquiloni, enhanced Challenge, EdiXion, Milan.

Marco Carnà. Uova di gallo 1961-1968
Pizziolo, M & Ravasio, R 2024, Marco Carnà. Uova di gallo 1961-1968, enhanced Focus, EdiXion, Milan.
Uova di gallo (Rooster’s Eggs), is the title of a cycle of paintings that Marco Carnà (1929-2021) created in 1964. Starting from this title, which is in itself a declaration of anomaly, the exhibition held in autumn 2024 in Vimercate at MUST – Museo del Territorio, offers the opportunity for a journey through some fifty works that develop coherently, yet in limited edition, an investigation into the rhythm of the sign, into the adventure of geometries.
Impossible eggs that will never hatch, yet precious, self-referential and charged with potential. Will the real Marco Carnà arrive later or is he already here?
