Isonzo Landscapes

On Tuesday, April 28 at 11:30 a.m., the exhibition “Isonzo Landscapes,” dedicated to painter Italico Brass, will open at the Town Hall. The project highlights the city’s artistic heritage and the artist’s connection to the region.

On Tuesday, April 28 at 11:30 a.m., the exhibition “Isonzo Landscapes,” dedicated to Italico Brass (1870–1943), will be inaugurated in the main floor rooms of the Town Hall. The initiative stems from the intention to enhance the historical and artistic heritage preserved at Palazzo Attems Santa Croce, where several works by the artist are held, including Chioggia Life Scene and Peace, as well as his portrait by Emma Galli Gallovich.

Building on this core, the exhibition presents a coherent selection of paintings from public and private collections, featuring views of Gorizia and the Isonzo area, including the Isonzo River, Mount Sabotino and the town castle. The display offers a concise yet meaningful overview of Brass’s landscape production and his connection to the territory.

In continuity with the reflections developed during Nova Gorica–Gorizia European Capital of Culture 2025, the exhibition explores the idea of a shared cross-border landscape. 

Curated by Michele Drascek and promoted by the Municipality of Gorizia and Lions International Gorizia Host Club, with the support of the Fondazione Cassa di Risparmio di Gorizia, the exhibition will be open until July 4 during Town Hall opening hours.
