Brescia, at the Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo Lorenzo Lotto and the masters of sixteenth-century Brescia

Lorenzo Lotto. Imagined Encounters is the title of the exhibition scheduled from December 1, 2023 to April 7, 2024 at the Pinacoteca Tosio Martinengo in Brescia. The protagonist is Lorenzo Lotto (1480 - 1556/1557) and the encounters are those with the masters, almost of the same age, of sixteenth-century Brescia such as Savoldo (circa 1480 - post 1548), Romanino (circa 1484 - 1566) and Moretto (circa 1492-1495 - 1554).

The path, within the rooms of the Pinacoteca, is created thanks to five works by the Venetian sixteenth-century genius, four from loans and one present in the Tosio Collection.

The Colors, Emotions and Gestures of Lorenzo Lotto, a journey of beauty and a chance to reread some of the collection’s masterpieces through imagined encounters among paintings by Lotto, Savoldo, Romanino and Moretto. The fascination of art history arises from the works, the authors and is enriched by the encounters, real and ideal, occurred or imagined, encounters of themes, manners, inspirations, of a common feeling and talent that today, centuries later, continues to fascinate us, continued to make us think of those artists as masters and those encounters with enchantment. The exhibition aims to renew that wonder; thanks to extraordinary loans, it tells us about one of the most fascinating protagonists of art history and, at the same time, tells about those encounters, through proposed dialogues with some of the artists in the Collection.

The new project of Fondazione Brescia Musei represents the culmination of the year of Bergamo Brescia Italian Capital of Culture and involves visitors, also thanks to a series of educational initiatives, from the Christmas period to spring.
