How to Catch a Monster — Virginia Lorenzetti & Isabelle Sterner

Curva Pura, Rome hosts a two-artist exhibition by Virginia Lorenzetti and Isabelle Sterner, curated by Andrea Romagnoli and Nicoletta Provenzano, with a contribution by Pasquale Polidori. The show examines the figure of the "monster" as a liminal condition that challenges boundaries between the human and the other.

The two artists, who work between Italy and Germany, present existing works alongside new pieces conceived for Curva Pura’s architecture, engaging mythic narratives, literature and contemporary concerns.
