Twenty-four years after the retrospective at the Museo Correr, Cagnaccio di San Pietro (1897-1946) is returning home: to his Venice and to the same museum – Ca’ Pesaro – in which he took the first official steps in his career.
From the bold nude of "Primo denaro", part of a “scandalous” trilogy of 1928, to a powerful series of portraits of men, women and children, including the unpublished "Portrait of Giuseppina Dalla Pasqua"; from some dazzling examples of still-lifes to religious and allegorical subjects like "La tempesta" and "La furia which," almost overlapping, mark the beginning and end of his intense career.
A selection of masterpieces curated by Dario Biagi, with the collaboration of Elizabeth Barisoni, illustrates the thematic range of this shy and passionate artist, who died prematurely at the age of forty-nine.

The Leading Thread
A thread of light, the “main theme” in cracked red neon always in motion, is the thread of Federica Marangoni’s life and emotions.
A red rivulet of energy and blood – specially visible at night – sharply divides the white façade of Ca’ Pesaro, from the roof almost down to the water of the...
