The unusual and visionary art show WAITING FOR PARADISE, directed and curated by Dores Sacquegna, coming soon! Organized by Primo Piano LivinGallery and staged at the Palmieri Foundation in the old city of Lecce (in Vico dei Sotterranei 1, in front of the cathedral), the exhibition will be open until December 4, 2026. The event, inspired by the Cabinet de Curiosités, pays tribute to visionary artists.
The show
WAITING FOR PARADISE is the title of the new edition of the Visionary Art Show – an unusual and visionary art project conceived back in 2010 by Primo Piano LivinGallery, which returns to Lecce in its TOTAL ART format with an exhibition/show that combines contemporary art with cinema, theatre, poetry, and music. A living story that brings to the stage dreamers of art brut, underground, neo-surrealist, pop, and fantasy art and their “cult objects” in a production that transforms the sacred, Renaissance venue of the Palmieri Foundation into a Cabinet de Curiosités, involving visitors in an immersive experience with the curiosity and wonder typical of a wonder room. An event that opens a window onto the collective imagination, where representation becomes writing, body, and moving image of the present time.
