Between Figurative
and Abstract art.
Female artists of the 20th Century
in the collections of the Museo
From 26 July to 20 October 2024 the Museo Civico of Bassano del Grappa pays homage to some important 20th-century female artists, Venetian by birth or adoption, who dialogue together for the first time in this exhibition, stretching between figuration and abstraction.

The works of art belong to the collections of the Museo Civico and have been donated in many cases by the artists themselves, following exhibitions dedicated to them in the last decades of the past century. In these years the museum paid particular attention to the languages ​​and manifestations of contemporary art, without neglecting female expressiveness.

Many of the artistic research of the second half of the 20th century arised from the dialectical relationship between the recovery of the figurative tradition of the past and the tension towards a new expressive freedom that explored the territories of abstraction. It is within this fertile dualism that the works of the artists exhibited here are placed.

The exhibition is a unique opportunity to discover or rediscover works of art from the Museo Civico’s collection that are not usually part of the permanent exhibition itinerary.
