With a major retrospective, the Museo Cantonale d’Arte in Lugano pays homage to Massimo Cavalli (Locarno, 1930), an outstanding figure among the generation of Ticinese artists who made their names in the second half of the twentieth century. Comprising more than 300 works, the exhibition traces, from the early 1950s to the present, the development of Cavalli’s oeuvre which has always been distinguished by his unswerving attachment to an informal pictorial idiom, albeit developed over the years with impressive originality. This rich collection, together with the exhibition catalogue (the most exhaustive ever devoted to this artist), offers a comprehensive survey of Cavalli’s paintings whilst also covering his equally intense graphic.
