Emotion. Contemporary art tells the story of emotions

The exhibition. Emotion. Contemporary art tells the Emotions at the Chiostro del Bramante conceived and produced by DART Chiostro del Bramante, curated by Danilo Eccher, describes the emotions of twenty artists - AES+F, Mat Collishaw, Subodh Gupta, Carsten Höller, Eva Jospin, Kimsooja , Luigi Mainolfi, Masbedo, Annette Messager, Paul Morrison, Luigi Ontani, Tony Oursler, Piero Pizzi Cannella, Laure Prouvost, Pietro Ruffo, Alessandro Sciaraffa, Gregor Schneider, Paolo Scirpa, Nedko Solakov and Adrian Tranquilli - through more than twenty works, many of which are site specific, to let visitors know which and how many emotions inspire an artist , for example, or how many are retained within the work, or what a spectator feels in front of a given work.

​The AES + F collective shows the negative aspects and conflicts of contemporary global culture through what it defines as "social psychoanalysis"; Eva Jospin expresses her emotions within cardboard landscapes and architecture; Annette Messager tells them through photographs inside fishing nets, colored shapes and a large Pinocchio; Subodh Gupta uses objects to evoke memories and Paul Morrison expresses them through his neo-romantic and pop-naturalist drawings.
