Exhibition "Zigaina in dialogo" (Zigaina in dialogue)

Open until February 28th, 2026 at the Galleria Spazzapan in Gradisca d'Isonzo

The Luigi Spazzapan Regional Gallery of Contemporary Art in Gradisca d’Isonzo reopens to the public after a series of major structural works that have renewed, expanded, and functionally improved the building. The works involved the Gallery’s historic headquarters, housed in the north wing of Palazzo Torriani and arranged over three levels, and made possible a significant expansion as well as the creation of SpazioLab, a large open space obtained from the former municipal library on Via Bergamas.

There could be no more suitable “witness” for this inauguration than Giuseppe Zigaina, one of the artists who contributed most significantly to the very founding of the Spazzapan Gallery. Ten years after his passing, and in continuity with the Zigaina100 initiatives, the exhibition “Zigaina in Dialogue” aims to offer a further opportunity to explore the complex figure of Giuseppe Zigaina as both artist and intellectual. Giuseppe Zigaina recounts himself primarily through his painting, drawings, and engravings, but also through his autobiographical writings, interviews, and the interpretations of his exhibitions. In this case, two particular moments in his artistic journey and two “occasions” for rereading his figurative path are brought into dialogue: the 1973 monographic exhibition in Gradisca d’Isonzo, in “dialogue” with Giuseppe Marchiori, and the donation to the Study Center and Archive of Communication of the University of Parma in 1994, which came about as the result of an exchange with Arturo Carlo Quintavalle.
