Project curated by Sergio Breviario, Daniele Salvalai and Giuseppe Vigolo

Artericambi is pleased to announce its collaboration with the Accademia di Belle Arti di Verona for the project “First Step 12 – Foglie Giallo Biloba”.

Since 2008, First Step has supported the professional development of the Academy’s students within the art ecosystem, offering workshops, lectures, and exhibitions hosted in art galleries, institutions, and exhibition spaces throughout Verona and in key neighboring cities.

The twelfth edition features 14 emerging artists, initially selected by a committee of experts and subsequently chosen by partner galleries and exhibition spaces. The result is a programme of six exhibitions, ranging from solo shows to group presentations.

On Saturday, 17 January 2026 at 4 pm, the Artericambi gallery will open two solo exhibitions dedicated to Alessia De Battista and Ilaria Marchi.

In Alessia De Battista’s exhibition titled La Sala Giochi, the artist pursues a personal and critical exploration by adopting a post-production methodology applied to works connected with the realm of play. The structures, rules, and elements of games are examined, deconstructed, and reassembled, becoming metaphors for social, historical, and economic dynamics, thus engaging with key themes of contemporary culture.
