Room 11. Lawrence Carroll

The space joins the Borgia Apartment, principally dedicated to Italian art of the first half of the twentieth century, with the large section that opens onto the broader international panorama, up the final rooms of the Collection, dedicated to works representative of the most recent artistic research.
This two sections – one historic and national, the other contemporary, international and in continual evolution – connect to the two works housed in this space: Emilio Greco’s splendid bronze Angel, produced between 1960 and 1961 for the interior of the Church of San Giovanni Battista sull’Autostrada del Sole, and Lawrence Carroll’s great painting, Untitled (Isatu Sesay), produced in 2013 for the Holy See’s first participation in the Venice Biennale.
