Mostra 'Domestic Displacement'

Gibellina (TP)

From June 26 to September 27, 2026, the Museum of Contemporary Art 'Ludovico Corrao' in Gibellina hosts 'Domestic Displacement', an exhibition curated by Giulia Ingarao and Antonio Leone, part of the program of Gibellina Italian Capital of Contemporary Art 2026. Fifteen international artists investigate the theme of displacement in all its forms – geographical, identity-related, political – building an unstable map of contemporary living. The works tell of the trauma of uprooting, the precariousness of memory, and the poetics of estrangement, between migration, conflict, care, and intimacy.
