Five exhibitions will open on a single evening in Turin. Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo is launching a new season on 29 October with shows by Andrea Bowers, Nan Goldin, Joseph Yaeger and Aziza Kadyri, together with a project by Louis Morlæ, who won the 2025 illy Present Future Prize. The group runs until 28 March 2027 and is presented as a survey of some of the most pressing questions of contemporary life, from social struggle and feminism to memory, identity and technological change.

The best-known of the five is Goldin's The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, shown in full with all 126 photographs from the book that made her name. Taken between 1973 and 1986, the images record her circle of friends and lovers in New York and beyond, and the work is widely regarded as her defining achievement. First shown as a slideshow in nightclubs and public spaces before its publication in 1986, it changed how photography could tell a personal story, and it arrives in Turin in the year marking two centuries since photography's invention.

Bowers, an artist based in Los Angeles who has combined art and activism for more than thirty years, presents La Ragnatela, a solo exhibition shaped by ecofeminism and by the anti-nuclear and disarmament movements of the Italian 1980s. Yaeger brings together paintings from recent years alongside new work shown in dialogue for the first time, while Kadyri and Morlæ complete a programme that deliberately mixes generations and approaches.

The foundation, founded by collector Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, has long backed younger artists through commissions and its young curators programme. Opening five shows at once underlines that ambition, offering visitors a single visit that moves from an established classic of photography to artists still building their reputations.
