From November 15, 2025 to May 10, 2026, the Santa Caterina Museum hosts "From Picasso to Van Gogh - Stories of Painting from Abstraction to Impressionism", the exhibition that brings for the first time to Europe over sixty works from the Toledo Museum in Ohio, one of the most important centers for 20th-century art.
The exhibition is an extraordinary journey back in time, a trip through art from American abstraction of the 20th century to European Impressionism, in a constant dialogue between the two shores of the Atlantic to understand through extraordinary masterpieces landscapes, portraits, contextual figures, and still lifes how abstraction was achieved and where it all began.
The installation pairs works by Piet Mondrian with Reinhardt, the geometries of Josef Albers, the landscapes of William Merritt Chase, and reaches Cézanne, Monet, and Gauguin. The pathway concludes with the famous painting Auvers, Wheat Fields with a Reaper by Vincent Van Gogh, to which the last space of the exhibition is entirely dedicated.
The exhibition is open from Tuesday to Thursday, from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, and from Friday to Sunday, from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
The museum remains closed on December 23 and 24, as well as January 7.
