Until June 10, 2018, the Visconti Castle in Pavia is hosting the exhibition Goya - Madness and Reason at the Dawn of Modernity.

At the Civic Museums of Pavia, at the Visconti Castle, the exhibition“Goya. Madness and Reason at the Dawn of Modernity” until June 10, 2018.

Francisco Goya is the protagonist of a major retrospective in which more than 200 works in etching, aquatint, drypoint and burin are on display: his four cycles of graphic masterpieces that led him to the pinnacle of his international fame.
Therefore, the exhibition is an unmissable opportunity to acquaint the public with his entire output of graphic works.

The Civic Museums of Pavia hold the Marquis Malaspina’s ancient collection of prints and have consistently shown special attention to graphic art.
Therefore, “the desire to propose temporary exhibitions with a close link to the heritage of the Civic Museums is confirmed,” said Culture Councillor Giacomo Galazzo.

A series of workshops on engraving and printing techniques aimed at adults and families is planned during the exhibition period.

The exhibition is curated by Patrizia Foglia, art historian, and Diego Galizzi, director of Bagnacavallo’s Museo Civico delle Cappuccine, where the exhibition was held in fall 2017.
