Grones was chosen by Ca 'Pesaro in 2020 for the Level 0 program of Artverona and had already entered the selection of the Mestre Painting Award of the same year. The exhibition, curated by Elisabetta Barisoni and Giovanna Nicoletti, continues a tradition, triggered in 1902, of relating the Masters with the new generation of contemporary art, which has recently been renewed also with the exhibition experiences inaugurated in 2019 with Sophie Ko in dialogue with Auguste Rodin's Il thinker and continue in 2020 with the residence of Paola Angelini in the rooms of Ca 'Pesaro, the outcome of which was presented in 2021 in the museum's project room.

The paintings were born as a site specific project for the Museum and offer the visitor an unprecedented reading of Grones' production and at the same time a new look at the works of the Gallery's Masters, creating an orchestrated and rhythmic ensemble of relationships, tensions and analogies, iconographic references. and shared directions.
