The exhibition
brings together 77 works: 53 paintings, 16 sculptures and 8 drawings,
comprising masterpieces of stunning expressive power and breathtaking
chromatic energy by one of Italy’s original naïve artists. It
features Ligabue’s animals, particularly animals engaged in
violent, aggressive behaviour in the ‘fight for life’ and his
self-portraits depicting varying states of psychological and physical
pain and anguish.
