Eye to Eye with Giulia Lama: A Woman Artist in 18th-Century Venice
A tu per tu con Giulia Lama: Una donna artista nel ‘700 veneziano
Pinacoteca Manfrediniana and Sacristy of the Basilica della Salute, Venice, 8 February — 8 June 2024

The special exhibition Eye to Eye with Giulia Lama: A Woman Artist in 18th-Century Venice features five canvases by Giulia Lama (1681–1747), which were recently restored thanks to Save Venice’s Women Artists of Venice (WAV) program. From 8 February until 8 June 2024, the Four Evangelists from the church of San Marziale will be on view at the Pinacoteca Manfrediniana, and the Virgin in Prayer from the church of Santa Maria Assunta on Malamocco will be installed in the nearby Sacristy of the Basilica della Salute. As these paintings are normally displayed high in their respective churches, this exhibition allows visitors the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to view them up-close following the recent transformative conservation treatments.

The exhibition has been organized by Save Venice in collaboration with the Diocesi Patriarcato di Venezia, Pinacoteca Manfrediniana, Basilica della Salute, and UniSVe.
