Alex Da Corte | Museum

American conceptual artist Alex Da Corte presents a fresh curatorial interpretation of MAXXI's permanent collection, bringing together works spanning painting, sculpture, photography, and architecture. Da Corte's organic arrangement explores the classical elements of water, wind, fire, and earth within Zaha Hadid's architectural framework. The exhibition features works by Francis Alÿs, Alighiero Boetti, Luigi Ghirri, Marisa Merz, Giuseppe Penone, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Kara Walker, and others, creating a journey through transformation, growth, and decay toward what Da Corte describes as 'an inevitable invisible ether.'
