Andy, Ulay & Marina: exhibition at MLB Maria Livia Brunelli Gallery

Andy, Ulay & Marina at MLB Maria Livia Brunelli Gallery

From 12 March to 14 June 2026 the MLB Maria Livia Brunelli Gallery in Ferrara presents Andy, Ulay & Marina, an exhibition that explores the intersections of Pop Art, video art and performance through works, archival materials and photographic and video documentation.

The show highlights how Ferrara's artistic scene in the 1970s — fostered by local initiatives and key personalities — became a point of convergence for international practices. Within this framework, the performative work of Ulay and Marina Abramović and the echoes of Pop Art in the city are brought into focus.

What to expect:

• A selection of Pop Art works and prints;
• Archival documents and video recordings of historic performances;
• Photographs and contemporary critical texts reconstructing the cultural climate of 1970s Ferrara;
• Installations juxtaposing performative practices and visual language in a contemporary curatorial setting.

Why visit: the exhibition offers a concentrated perspective on the dialogue between different artistic languages — from video to performance — tracing the historical thread that links performative action and visual experimentation in the city.
