Art, Isgrò, Pistoletto and Pomodoro on display at Mims

The erasures by Emilio Isgrò, together with the mirrors by Michelangelo Pistoletto and the sculptures by Arnaldo Pomodoro on display at Mims. After the Quirinale, the palace in via Nomentana opens up to contemporary art with 26 works by 14 contemporary Italian artists. The initiative wanted by the Minister of Infrastructure and Sustainable Mobility, Enrico Giovannini, will open its doors to the public once a month for guided tours of the collection. ” My approach to contemporary art is dynamic and I love to compare myself with works – explains Giovannini-. It happened to me, while admiring a work by Salvator Dalì in Madrid, to listen to a group of children with their teacher who asked him to describe what they saw in the painting. The answers were amazing, they were seeing things I couldn’t see. This is a ministry that confronts every day with the vision of the future, because we build sustainable infrastructures for the benefit of the community ”. ” The idea of ​​exhibiting pictorial creations, sculptures and installations inside the Mims headquarters – explains Giovannini- stems from what the General Secretariat of the Presidency of the Republic achieved with ‘Quirinale Contemporaneo’ and aims to show those who frequent the ministry and the general public the expression of the excellent Italian creativity of the Republican period and to enrich the historical collections already present at the headquarters, enhancing its value ”.
