Pelle di donna. Identità e bellezza tra arte e scienza

For the first time in Italy, an exhibition that brings art and science together over the subject of the skin.
“WOMEN AND THEIR SKIN. Identity and Beauty in Art and Science,” curated by Pietro Bellasi and Martina Mazzotta, is hosted by the Milan Triennale from 24 January to 19 February 2012.
The survey arises from a project of Fondazione Antonio Mazzotta, for years a leading light in the world of art, together with Boots Laboratories, an iconic wellbeing brand marketed in Italy by P&G.
Through a rich array of works of art – antique, modern, and contemporary – documents, and antique objects, the visitor explores a fascinating itinerary that leads to a science laboratory.
Much space is dedicated to modern and contemporary artists who use the most varied languages, from painting to sculpture, from the conceptual to the new technologies, and on through to experimental filmmaking, with site specific events as well.
