About this Event

CIMA hosts the international conference Mario Schifano Study Days on October 20, 21, 22, 23. This annual event offers an opportunity for CIMA’s fellows to share their new research alongside other scholars.

The Study Days aim to further investigate the major themes of CIMA's annual exhibition, Facing America: Mario Schifano, 1960-1965, as well as to offer new insights into the general debate on Mario Schifano, in sessions conceived by the 2020–2021 CIMA Fellows following an open call for papers.

The first three sessions of the conference (October 20, 21, 22) will be held online as Zoom seminars: this ticket grants access to all the online sessions. The sessions on October 23 will be held in person at CIMA.

>>This ticket is valid for the In-Person sessions on October 23.<<
