Under The Azure exhibition booklet

The exhibition Under the azure takes as its starting point a Hittite myth (the Hittites were a people of Asia Minor who lived in the 2nd millennium B.C.) according to which, every evening, the sun would fall into the sea at the moment of its setting. Under the azure brings together works by some twenty international artists, both historic and emerging, whose artistic practice has been nourished by a fascination for the Mediterranean Sea. The exhibition reflects the dreams and fears of the Mediterranean Sea, from the people who inhabit it to the dramas it witnesses.
