The Body of the City: Art, Beauty and Vitality in Turin

A visit that offers a fascinating journey through time, with an exhibition that centres on the human body as a point of encounter and reflection, recounting its evolution through the languages of fashion, painting, sculpture and photography. Starting from late-19th-century bourgeois Turin, the exhibition winds its way through the elegance of Art Nouveau garments from the great tailors’ workshops and the expressions of the artistic avant-garde. A profound dialogue that reveals how styles of dress, women’s work and the urban landscape have shaped the city’s industrial, cultural and consumerist spirit, right up to the modern geometries of the Italia ’61 era.
