Bruna Esposito

Bruna Esposito is best known for the use of miscellaneous materials, often linked with everyday life and alchemy, poetically working on and involving many different levels of perception. Full recognition came to her in the form of a Golden Lion that she was jointly awarded for a non-existent national Pavilion entitled “dAPERTutto” curated by Harald Szeemann at the 1999 Venice Biennial.A talented and sensitive artist, she is working in diverse media, such as painting, sculpture, photography and installation, constantly experimenting with her style. Among her solo exhibitions are worth mentioning: Clocktower P.S.1 New York in 1999, Museo d’Arte Contemporanea del Castello di Rivoli in 2002 and, also that year, Castel Sant’Elmo in Naples. In 2017 the works from the exhibition “davvero/truly” entered in the permanent collection of the MAXXI Museum in Rome and took part in the exhibition “Intuition” in Palazzo Fortuny, Venice.
