About the exhibition

With new works commissioned by Pirelli HangarBicocca, the exhibition marks the first institutional survey of Saodat Ismailova in Italy. It presents works from her two-decade career, including films, sculptures, and installations, in a specially designed spatial environment. Focusing on the concept and implications of transmission—whether of knowledge, stories, memories or landscapes—the exhibition conjures up different narratives, creating a complex and multi-layered atmosphere.
