We are pleased to announce representation of the Estate of Carol Rama alongside Galerie Isabella Bortolozzi, Berlin. Over more than seven decades, Carol Rama (b. 1918, Turin; d. 2015) developed a radical body of work that addressed connections between desire, sacrifice, eroticism and repression. By constructing a visual cosmos where transgression leads to liberation, Rama countered assumptions about gender, sexuality and representation, offering a retort to the societal conventions and the prevailing far-right political ideologies that defined the fascist-dominated Italy of her youth. She set neither boundaries nor hierarchies between painting, drawing, sculpture and printmaking, pulling all of these mediums into her image universe. ‘My self-assurance exists only across from a sheet of paper that needs to be filled in,’ Rama once declared. ‘Work is the only way to drive off my fears. My rebellion consists of painting.’

For centuries, Palazzo Forcella De Seta in Palermo has borne witness to the rich pageant of Sicilian history, embodying the interplay of cultures that have shaped the Mediterranean island.

The Education Lab, ‘Our Imaginary World,’ invites reflection on art as a form of healing, self-reclamation and empowerment. It is inspired by Niki de Saint Phalle’s philosophy that creativity can serve as a therapeutic outlet and Jean Tinguely’s exploration of movement and transformation through kinetic art.
