GAM dedicates to Alberto Moravia an exhibition curated by Luca Beatrice and Elena Loewenthal as part of the project “Born To Narrate. Rediscovering Alberto Moravia” that the Fondazione Circolo dei lettori has conceived and installed together with GAM and the Museo Nazionale del Cinema in collaboration with the Associazione Fondo Alberto Moravia, Bompiani editore, and the Gallerie d’Italia.
The GAM Education Department wants to accompany the increasingly varied public to approach the rich artistic heritage and to familiarize themselves with the museum, taking advantage of training proposals, access facilities and articulated forms of pedagogical mediation for all citizens.

Un viaggio musicale attraverso tre musei. Gloria Campaner interpreta le collezioni di GAM, MAO e Palazzo Madama con parole e musica, accompagnandoci in un percorso sonoro a cavallo tra epoche e culture differenti. Nota dopo nota, sillaba dopo sillaba, un itinerario immersivo in un altrove senza tempo.
Giuseppe Penone ripercorre i primi passi della GAM, ribadendo la centralità del museo nel panorama artistico torinese. Le prime mostre alle quali ha assistito, la comunità di artisti che caratterizzava la città, la realizzazione dell’iconico portale, che ancora oggi si staglia sul piazzale d’ingresso della Galleria Civica di Arte Moderna di Torino.
Elena Volpato, curatrice della mostra, ci racconta la sua scelta di usare come prima immagine della mostra la foto di una performance alla Galleria dell'Attico, perché suggerisce il valore ieratico dell'attraversare una soglia.
Arianna Bona, dell'ufficio mostre dalla GAM, ci racconta quest'opera di Cornelia Parker.
