“Ultima vela…”: Lucio Salzano’s solo show at Palazzo Venezia Napoli

From 19 to 27 May 2026, Palazzo Venezia Napoli hosts “Ultima vela…”, a solo exhibition by Neapolitan artist Lucio Salzano. The show brings together seven previously unseen works created between 2021 and 2026, offering a visual program that blends painting with theatrical and multimedia elements.

• Opening: Tuesday 19 May, 19:00.
• Dates: 19–27 May 2026.
• Visiting hours: daily from 10:30 to 13:30 and from 16:30 to 21:00.
• Venue: Palazzo Venezia Napoli.

The seven new works, executed with oil pastels and mixed techniques on cardboard and other humble supports, emphasize a tactile, immediate pictorial approach. A dominant blue becomes a metaphysical space where memory, time and absence intersect. Salzano’s “interrupted landscapes” address both inner and social blackouts while tracing paths toward direction and renewal.

This exhibition marks a closing chapter in a pictorial cycle for Salzano, who combines his practice with theatre direction and multidisciplinary projects. The pieces on display convey a symbolic and poetic language that evokes dreamlike expectations and invites reflection on alternative spatial and temporal dimensions.

Practical note: admission details and access rules may change; visitors should check the official channels of Palazzo Venezia Napoli for updates before planning their visit.
