GAM Turin: Fourth Resonance highlights drawing and paper

The Galleria d'Arte Moderna (GAM) of Turin launches Quarta Risonanza, an exhibition program concentrating on line, gesture and paper as central media of artistic research. The project comprises four complementary exhibitions that interact with the museum's collections.

Main exhibitions

• Another Twentieth Century. Works on paper from the GAM collections (curated by Fabio Cafagna and Elena Volpato): an organized survey of 20th-century works on paper held by the museum, including over six hundred drawings, watercolors, prints and paintings on paper.
• Today Is a Century – Vincenzo Agnetti (curated by Chiara Bertola and Virginia Lupo): an exhibition marking the centenary of Agnetti's birth, exploring his photographic experiments and works such as Photo-graffia.
• Lisetta Carmi. Eroticism and authoritarianism at Staglieno (curated by Elena Volpato): a group of photographs from the 1960s–70s recently acquired through the Strategia Fotografia 2025 program, shown alongside selected sculptures from the collection.
• The Intruder. Pesce Khete (curated by Fabio Cafagna and Elena Volpato): the artist inserts new works into the Another Twentieth Century route, creating fresh juxtapositions with 20th-century masters; Pesce Khete uses paper as his principal support, exploring its material presence and the role of white space.

Why visit

Quarta Risonanza reveals the intimate workshop of artists: paper as an open field for experimentation where mark-making becomes immediate and revealing. The exhibition traces stylistic developments across the century, while the dedicated shows on Agnetti and Carmi shed light on photographic practice as a research tool and documentary medium.
