From 7 October to 9 January 2022
The exhibition aims to recompose the figure of Antoine de Lonhy, a multifaceted artist who was a painter, illuminator, stained glass master, sculptor and author of embroidery designs, and illustrates his extraordinarily important impact for the renewal of the figurative landscape of the territory of present Piedmont in the second half of the fifteenth century. Having come into contact with Flemish, Mediterranean and Savoyard culture, de Lonhy was the bearer of a European concept of the Renaissance, characterized by the ability to synthesize different figurative languages.
The exhibition itinerary is divided into two locations, Palazzo Madama - Civic Museum of Ancient Art of Turin (from 7 October 2021 to 9 January 2022) and the Diocesan Museum of Susa (from 10 July to 10 October 2021), and intends highlight the travels, movements and itinerant career through Europe of an artist who in his works brought together elements and influences from Burgundy, Provence, Catalonia and Savoy.
The exhibition counts on the curatorship of Simone Baiocco and Simonetta Castronovo for the Turin section, and Vittorio Natale for the Susa section.
