INFINITO CABINET. MARIA CRISTINA CRESPO

A contemporary wunderkammer in which art, myth, religion and philosophy engage in a nonstop and unexpected dialogue. Against painted backdrops and bizarre figures dressed in recycled fabrics, the artist pursues a personal reflection she began in the late 1970s. Venice as a place of cross-contamination par excellence represents a necessary milestone for the artist’s path. Echoes of André Malraux and Jorge Luis Borges invite visitors to question the role played by Western identity in the artistic sphere and in other fields as well, provided one is willing to dismantle one’s most unshakeable certainties.
