DESCRIPTION:Jun 25 - Sep 21\, 2026\nMaria Lai (1919–2013) grew up in Ulas
 sai\, a small village in the Barbagia region of Sardinia. Her practice dre
 w on the island’s oral traditions and textiles in ways that had no real 
 precedent in postwar Italian art. Lai’s Telai (loom-like wooden structur
 es strung with thread)\, her sewn canvases\, her artist’s books stitched
  together by hand—all of it sat outside the categories recognized by Ita
 lian institutions\, which partly explains why she flew under the radar for
  so long. This major retrospective\, curated by Mónica Amor and Carlos Ba
 sualdo\, sets out to correct the record by filling archival gaps\, revisin
 g chronologies\, and presenting Lai’s practice as the sophisticated and 
 singular body of work it always was.
