The exhibition shows different expressions of concept and representations of space in post-war Italian art through 20 selected works.

From the conceptual explorations into 3-D in the canvases of Lucio Fontana to the geopolitical images of the world by Alighiero Boetti, from the dreamlike, metaphorical landscape found in the works of Giorgio de Chirico to the use of light as a way of creating space in Enrico Castellani and Agostino Bonalumi, these works can be seen as the forerunners of numerous movements in contemporary art.
