The exhibition I soli di tutte le terre, inaugurated on 5 June, 2025 at the Center for Openness and Dialogue (COD) in Tirana, marks the first institutional exhibition in Albania of the famous Italian artist Enzo Cucchi, a key figure of the Transavanguardia. Promoted by the Italian Cultural Institute and curated by Spazio Taverna, the exhibition retraces the most significant stages of his long career, starting from some central works from his early days, from private collections, brought together for the first time after many years.
A central section of the exhibition is dedicated to Cucchi’s deep bond with the Marche Region, his native land and constant source of inspiration. Landscapes, emotions and symbols of this Italian region come to life in a collection of small paintings and drawings, the latter at the center of the second part of the exhibition.
A visionary and internationally recognized artist, Cucchi has exhibited in the most prestigious museums and institutions in the world. With this exhibition, his painting arrives in Tirana, radiating that Mediterranean light that embraces both shores of the Adriatic, the “sea of ntimacy” in the words of the curators.
