BERNARDO ZENALE

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Bernardo Zenale: St John Rediscovered in Robilant+Voena's Milan gallery, this video explores the vibrant artistic scene in Lombardy and Piemonte during the early Renaissance. The centrepiece of the exhibition is a recently rediscovered altarpiece by Bernardo Zenale of Saint John the Baptist, which had spent the past hundred years in a Benedictine monastery in Somerset. Curated by Stefania Buganza, the exhibition traces the altarpiece’s history, uniting two other works by Zenale as well as paintings of scenes from the life of Christ by his contemporaries, including Sperandio Cagnoli, the Master of the Cernuschi Pentecost and Martino Piazza da Lodi. 

Video produced and directed by Carolyn H. Miner. Videography by Valentin Meneveau.
