A Curated Dialogue Between Sculpture, Painting and Photography.
For this new edition, ART THEMA presents a curated selection primarily focused on contemporary sculpture, complemented by selected painters and a photographic work, creating a balanced dialogue between material presence, pictorial space and visual narrative.
