The Museo Italo Americano invites you to FRAMES, a solo exhibition of large-format, one-of-a-kind prints drawn from 21 musical short films of the series Body & Sound created by Italian filmmaker Alberto Nacci between 2014 and 2024, featuring leading figures in jazz, classical, and contemporary music. Each numbered, signed print elevates a single frame to the status of an original artwork: a striking dialogue between musician and instrument, sound and image, performance and design.
Acclaimed at Milan’s ADI Design Museum in 2023, FRAMES now crosses the Atlantic for its first US showing, a rare fusion of music, design, and filmmaking that rewards even those who wouldn’t ordinarily linger over video art.
