Welcome Reception at Museion

📅 4th February, 18:30 – 21:00

📍 Museion, Piero Siena Platz – Piazza Siena 1, Bozen-Bolzano

The Welcome Reception for CERME14 is taking place at Museion, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Bozen-Bolzano. The museum, with its futuristic design by Berlin-based KSV Krüger Schuberth Vandreike, offers the perfect setting for an evening of art and networking.

The evening will feature the exhibition AMONG THE INVISIBLE JOINS, showcasing works from the Enea Righi Collection, celebrated for its commitment to robust socio-political engagement, an activist ethos, poetic expression, and human intimacy. The works selected encourage viewers to ponder the transitional spaces of contemporary existence, where socio-political tensions intertwine with artistic expression. You’ll have the chance to explore 150 selected pieces by 80 prominent artists, including Massimo Bartolini, Trisha Donnelly, Nan Goldin, Walid Raad, Akram Zaatari, Roni Horn, and many more.

The Welcome Reception is exclusively for registered participants. Please remember to bring the badge to access the reception and exhibition.
An aperitif will be served on floor -1 of the museum. Drinks and snacks will be available, but please note that food and drinks are not allowed inside the exhibition areas.
