After Francisco Goya and Max Klinger, the exhibition promoted by the Museo Civico delle Cappuccine in Bagnacavallo on the most important international artists who were able to express their greatness to the fullest through engraving could not continue except with Albrecht Dürer (1471-1528).

The exhibition "Albrecht Dürer. The privilege of restlessness", organized by the Municipality of Bagnacavallo and curated by Diego Galizzi and Patrizia Foglia, is an exhibition of great appeal and importance, with more than 120 graphic works by the Nuremberg master from prestigious Italian public and private collections.

Dürer is the “noble father” of graphic thought, he who was able to raise drawing and engraving to an artistic expression no longer the handmaid of painting, but fully free and autonomous. Max Klinger himself recognized this: «A graphic work by Dürer does not refer either to a replicated painting, nor does it translate sensations of color into forms extraneous to the technique adopted. It is complete in itself and definitive, deprived only of what the idea, eternally unattainable, refuses the possibilities of every artist ».
