Cremona and its Animal House

In the splendid setting of Palazzo Fodri in Cremona, from 9 July to 12 September Galleria PQV Fine Art welcomes “Animal House”, an exhibition revolving around the dialogue between Stefano Bombardieri’s oneiric sculptures and a selection of animals and bizarre objects from the past, most of which are Roman antiquities.  

Stemming from the collaboration between PQV and Galleria Gare82, with the curatorship of Matteo Graniti, former curator of Lu.C.C.A Contemporary Art, the exhibition continues in the courtyard of the City Hall building where, thanks to the valuable collaboration of Cremona’s Municipal Cultural Office, a huge over-5-meter sculpture entitled Marta e l’elefante (Marta and the elephant) will provide a representative example of Stefano Bombardieri’s visionary world. The exhibition is an opportunity to explore the production of Bombardieri, one of the most internationally recognised Italian artists, and to travel through the past with never-displayed-before masterpieces from important private collections. The focus of “Animal House” is not only on the works, but also on aspects such as size, scale, time and space.
