D’ARC Foundation opens its autumn program with AMORE CHIAMA COLORE, a group exhibition that, weaving together works from the Foundation’s collection with those of invited artists, explores the role of color and examines not only its technical properties but also the meanings it can evoke, from the emotional to the political dimension.

At the core of the exhibition lies Amore chiama colore IV (1956) by Piero Dorazio, a seminal work from the collection that provides the conceptual framework for the project. From this starting point, the exhibition introduces for the first time a selection of new acquisitions by John Armleder, Monia Ben Hamouda, Ross Bleckner, Samuel Nnorom, and Odili Donald Odita. These are presented in dialogue with works already part of the Foundation’s collection, including those by Alfonso Fratteggiani Bianchi and Tadasky. The exhibition also features contributions by additional artists whose practices revolve around multifaceted investigations of color, including Josè Angelino, Pablo Atchugarry, Giacinto Cerone, Michela de Mattei, Federica Di Carlo, Pascale Marthine Tayou, Genuardi/Ruta, Giulio Turcato, and Austin Young.

The exhibition is further enriched by a series of performative events spanning poetry, music, and cinema.
