Lucia Veronesi, La desinenza estinta, 2023, Jacquard fabric with lampasso effect of wefts, 300 × 500 cm, Ca' Pesaro ‒ Galleria Internazionale d’Arte Moderna, Acquisition thanks to the XII Italian Council

Born after a complex research phase between London, Trondheim and Zurich, after the exhibitions at MOCA London and The Hannah Ryggen Centre, Ørlandet Kultursenter, Lucia Veronesi's work entitled La desinenza estinta (The extinct ending) materializes at Ca' Pesaro and consists of a tapestry and a video - which will be presented on September 24 - located between the internal courtyard of the museum, the entrance hall and the project room. The project, winner of the 2023 edition of Italian Council - the program for the promotion of Italian contemporary art in the world created by the Directorate-General for Contemporary Creativity of the Ministry of Culture - will become part of the permanent collection of the Ca' Pesaro Museum, testifying to a profound reflection on the relationship between the extinction of languages, botany, the history of science in its feminine declinations, and their socio-political implications.
