From August 21 to September 21, 2025, Palazzo Pallavicini will host the first-ever exhibition in Italy dedicated to Jack Vettriano, the renowned Scottish artist of Italian descent. Organized by Pallavicini s.r.l. and curated by Francesca Bogliolo, the event will feature over 70 works, including oil paintings, limited edition prints, and exclusive photographs by Francesco Guidicini. A self-taught artist, Vettriano began painting at the age of 21 and achieved success in 1988 with his first exhibition at the Royal Scottish Academy.
His distinctive noir-inspired style is known for its sensual and cinematic atmospheres, often portraying romantic themes and alluring female figures. In 2004, he was awarded the OBE by Queen Elizabeth for his contribution to visual arts. This exhibition offers a unique opportunity for the Italian audience to discover one of the world’s most celebrated and widely reproduced artists, through a carefully curated journey that highlights his talent and timeless emotional impact.
