Sguardi sull’Africa – exhibition in Piacenza

Exhibitions

Palazzo Gotico, in the heart of Piacenza, is hosting an exceptional exhibition dedicated to African art “Sguardi sull’Africa”. From Sunday 1 March to Monday 4 May 2026, works from the Giglio di Piacenza and Collezione 54 collections in Milan will offer the city of Piacenza a glimpse into the art and culture of the African continent.

The African continent, the cradle of humanity, is a place rich not only in nature and raw materials, but also in history, traditions and a culture as varied as the populations that inhabit the fifty-four nations that comprise it.
