From September 2025
From September 11 to October 7, 2025 the new exhibition Erik Kessels. An image, the latest work by Dutch visual artist Erik Kessels, who will create a multimedia installation composed of over 60 images from Intesa Sanpaolo's Publifoto Archive, all "stitched" and "transformed" to form a single, continuously moving photograph thanks to the aid of artificial intelligence. The artist creates a postmodern narrative, transcending any chronological narrative to better understand a unique vision impacting the often anonymous lives of others. Furthermore, in the Immersive Room, visitors will be able to participate in a seamless visual and instrumental theater in which our present, the past, the world, and life emerge through a soundtrack in which the mystical and the electronic alternate and dissolve. The musical score was specially composed by English avant-garde electronic musicians Robin Rimbaud (aka Scanner) and Italian Stefano Pilia.
From October 2025
While Jeff Wall. Photographs will be scheduled from October 9, 2025 to February 1, 2026 Dedicated to one of the most significant and influential contemporary photographic artists, curated by David Campany, writer, art critic, and creative director of the International Center of Photography in New York. Presented in life-size, his images are among the most celebrated works of contemporary art. Themes of nature, war, gender, race, and class permeate his works, which are often as enigmatic as the issues that inspire them. Curator David Campany (London, 1967) has known and worked with Jeff Wall for nearly twenty years and is a leading authority on the subject. He has published several essays and conversations with Wall and has exhibited his photographs extensively (at the ICP in New York, the Whitechapel Gallery in London, Le Bal in Paris, and FoMu in Antwerp). This exhibition represents one of the most important exhibitions on the photographer and the culmination of Campany's engagement with Jeff Wall's work.
The Turin museum, together with those in Milan, Naples and Vicenza, is part of the Intesa Sanpaolo Gallerie d'Italia museum project, led by Michele Coppola – Executive Director of Art, Culture and Historic Heritage of the Bank.
