The opening of its latest exhibition, Maria Lai. A Journey to America, further cements Magazzino Italian Art Museum’s role as a center for postwar and contemporary Italian art. Located in the bucolic village of Philipstown in Cold Spring, New York, it is the sole museum in America devoted entirely to this genre.
The new exhibition, curated by the museum’s talented artistic director, Paola Mura, is the first retrospective of Maria Lai’s art in the U.S. It includes more than 100 works, some that have never been shown before, representing the artist’s work from the 1950s until her death in 2013.
