Brescia Museum Hosts Major Art Exhibition Celebrating Guido Crepax

Guido Crepax’s comprehensive retrospective, “Dreams, Games, Valentina. 1953-2003,” is currently on display at the Santa Giulia Museum in Brescia until February 15, 2026. The exhibition features 150 works, including original comic pages, sketches, advertising projects, and cinematic storyboards, alongside documents such as correspondence with Federico Fellini and Louise Brooks.

The show is divided into seven thematic sections exploring Crepax’s diverse influences—from literature and fine arts to cinema and fashion—and his experimentation across mediums. Highlights include references to authors like Kafka and Poe, connections to contemporary art movements, and Crepax’s collaborations with filmmakers and musicians. The exhibition also emphasizes the evolution of female characters in his work and his impact on Italian pop culture, complemented by a catalog published by Skira.
