Andrea Pazienza. Non sempre si muore

On the seventieth anniversary of his birth, MAXXI celebrates, with a major exhibition project, the author who transformed comics into a new art form. Andrea Pazienza, who died at the age of thirty-two, continues to live on in his enduring masterpieces, in the never-before-seen pages that continuously re-emerge, and in the clear-sighted way he navigated his era and envisioned the future we inhabit today. This catalogue, an anthology of memorable pages and previously unpublished works, is the most extensive attempt to reconstruct the portrait of an incomparable artist through comics, letters, poems, drawings, and photographs.
