MONNA LISA WHO?

The Monna Lisa who? narrative environment reinterprets the space of the church of Santa Maria Gualtieri in a quest for the identity of the world’s most famous portrait.

Karmachina presents “Monna Lisa Who?” from 24 November to 29 March 2020 in Pavia as part of the exhibition entitled “LOOKING FOR MONNA LISA. Misteri e ironie attorno alla più celebre icona pop”.

An immersive narration where the image of the Louvre Gioconda, other versions of the Monna Lisa, Leonardo’s drawings, and the animated and digitally elaborated pictorial works, with the sounds by Alberto Modignani and the narration paired with the setup designed by Studio Dune, find a perfect balance with the vertical structure, the symmetry and the soft quality of the lines of the exhibition venue, accompanying the viewer on an immersive experience.

“LOOKING FOR MONNA LISA. Misteri e ironie attorno alla più celebre icona pop” is a project by Comune di Pavia whit the support of Fondazione Banca del Monte di Lombardia.
