Pinacoteca Agnelli presents the first retrospective in Italy dedicated to American artist Alice Neel, one of the most significant painters of the 20th century.
Alice Neel is one of the great pioneers of the 1900s, a revolutionary painter whose approach to portraiture touched on fundamental human, social and political issues. Thanks to her unique painting style, she continues to influence generations of artists today: by blending realism and surrealism, she was able to read the human soul in its most hidden folds.
Following a chronological timeline spanning seven decades of the 20th century, I Am the Century explores the idea of Alice Neel as a “chronicler of life” and her paintings as representations of the “human comedy”.
Structured in six chapters interwoven with her biography, the project highlights the artist's unique relationship with her subjects and their life stories.
