From June 19 to July 2025, the exhibition spaces of Palazzo Rasponi dalle Teste, in the heart of Ravenna’s historic center, will host the exhibition Tra sogno e natura. Painting in Ravenna between the 19th and 20th centuries, curated by Paolo Trioschi and Giorgio Costa.
The exhibition was created with the intention of rediscovering and enhancing significant figures of the Ravenna art scene between the end of the 19th and the first decades of the 20th century: painters who, although they enjoyed wide fame even beyond the local sphere, were later unjustly forgotten. The exhibition features a selection of largely unpublished works, offering a renewed look at a particularly fertile period for the city’s artistic production.
The featured artists include Domenico Miserocchi, Arturo Moradei, Vittorio and Alessandro Guaccimanni, Angelo Torchi, Enrico Piazza, and others. The exhibition opens with Domenico Miserocchi’s evocative painting Don Quixote, a work of great visual and symbolic intensity, in ideal dialogue with the last act of the Trilogy created by Ravenna Teatro for the Ravenna Festival.
During the course of the exhibition, meetings, lectures and moments of in-depth study are planned, with the aim of encouraging an active discussion with the public and offering further keys to understanding the contexts and protagonists of Ravenna art between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
Opening on Thursday, June 19, 6 p.m.
The exhibition “Tra sogno e natura. Pittura a Ravenna tra ‘800 e ‘900” is promoted by the Municipal Administration, MAR , in collaboration with La Cassa di Ravenna – Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Ravenna, Ravenna Teatro, Ravenna Festival.
