When the colors of autumn and the first whispers of winter embrace Turin's historic porticoes and grand avenues, the city drapes itself in a unique charm, vibrant yet quiet at the same time. It is the season when the spotlight shines on major international autumn events: from the days dedicated to contemporary art with the Torino Art Week fairs, to the great world tennis challenges of the Nitto ATP Finals, up to the screenings of the celebrated Torino Film Festival. Within this context, cultural vibrancy continues to unfold in museums and art galleries, which transform for the winter into spaces of pure reflection and discovery through major monographic exhibitions, rare dialogues, and silent avant-gardes.
For guests of DUPARC, this inclination towards mindfulness and attention to detail finds a natural resonance in the hotel. Our spacious suites, conceived with a linear and sophisticated design, are designed to embrace the relaxed pace of the season, offering a sanctuary of stillness where the emotions experienced in the city can gently settle. We invite you to discover the unmissable events of this autumn-winter season: a curated selection for those who, even when traveling, seek the luxury of time, inspiration, and the most authentic beauty.
Must-See Exhibitions in Turin, Autumn and Winter 2026
Marisa Merz – La danza delle ore
Castello di Rivoli, Fondazione Merz, GAM
From October 29, 2026, to April 4, 2027
An exceptional exhibition in three acts brings together the region's leading contemporary art institutions to celebrate the centenary of the birth of one of the most extraordinary figures on the international scene. Through a collection of intimate and partly unseen works, the journey explores the continuous evolution of an ever-open body of work, where the everyday becomes a creative dimension and the home is transformed into an alchemical laboratory capable of redefining the notion of physical and metaphysical space.
Fan Ho. The Master of Hong Kong Photography
Historical Apartments of Palazzo Barolo
From September 11, 2026, to January 10, 2027
The fascinating spaces of Palazzo Barolo host an anthological exhibition, unprecedented in Italy, celebrating the "Cartier-Bresson of the East." One hundred photographs, predominantly in black and white, reveal the metropolis of Hong Kong between the 1950s and 1960s, turning its bustling streets into meditative paintings. Fan Ho's style enchants with its geometric and minimalist rigor, where the masterful use of chiaroscuro and backlighting brings out solitary silhouettes and abstract textures from the shadows, offering a perfect balance between realism, human poetry, and a near-musical rhythm.
Yayoi Kusama. The Eternally Infinite Light of the Universe Illuminating the Quest for Truth
OGR Torino – Binario 1
October 31, 2026 - February 28, 2027
OGR Torino hosts one of the most anticipated visual experiences of the season: the iconic Infinity Mirror Room by Yayoi Kusama. Presented as part of the exhibition project The Quantum Effect, the installation envelops the visitor in a sensory universe suspended between wonder and disorientation. Through the skillful interplay of lights, mirrored surfaces, and the obsessive repetition of luminous dots, the space expands infinitely, offering a profound reflection on the perception of reality, time, and the dissolution of boundaries between the individual and the cosmos.
Song Dong. Soul Out
MAO – Museo d'Arte Orientale
October 23, 2026 - June 27, 2027
The MAO Museum of Oriental Art presents Song Dong. Soul Out, the first major solo exhibition in Italy dedicated to the Beijing-based artist. Conceived as a site-specific project, the exhibition involves the entire museum, turning it into a narrative device where the artworks engage in dialogue with the permanent collections and the historic architecture of Palazzo Mazzonis. Featuring iconic installations, videos, and performances created from the 1990s to the present, the exhibition retraces over thirty years of career, exploring the connection between individual experience, private memory, and the social transformations of contemporary China.
Letizia Battaglia & Davide Tranchina
CAMERA - Centro Italiano per la Fotografia
From October 15, 2026, to February 7, 2027
CAMERA's spaces present a double feature of great intensity. On one side, the major exhibition co-produced with the Jeu de Paume dedicated to Letizia Battaglia: a journey through over 200 images and historical documents that reflect the photographer's courageous civil commitment and her ability to capture the profound soul of Sicily, between light and shadow. On the other, the Project Room hosts a retrospective on Davide Tranchina, which reviews twenty years of research into the ambiguity of the image and the boundary between analog and digital, enriched by an unreleased work conceived specifically for the occasion.

Sale Chiablese – Musei Reali di Torino
October 7, 2026 - February 7, 2027
The Sale Chiablese of the Musei Reali host the largest retrospective ever dedicated to the renowned American actress and photographer Jessica Lange. Featuring over two hundred images, largely unpublished and the result of nearly thirty years of artistic research, the exhibition unveils the most intimate and authorial side of the artist. The exhibition itinerary leads visitors on a visual journey across continents, solitary landscapes, and fragments of daily life — including the famous series dedicated to Highway 61 —, revealing a poetic perspective with a deeply cinematic character capable of capturing the hidden beauty in the ordinary.
Alberto Savinio & Chris Ofili
Pinacoteca Agnelli
From October 30, 2026, to April 4, 2027
The spaces of the Lingotto are renewed with two projects of international scope: a major retrospective dedicated to Alberto Savinio, celebrating his revolutionary contribution to 20th-century art between classicism and a vision of the future, and Chris Ofili's new series of works, bringing his vibrant paintings balancing abstraction and figuration to Turin, placing them in a novel and suggestive dialogue with the museum's Permanent Collection.

Reggia di Venaria Reale
From October 2, 2026, to February 14, 2027
A fascinating journey through European 20th-century painting, the result of a prestigious cultural dialogue with the Musée des Beaux-Arts in Lyon. The selection of works by absolute masters—including Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, and Francis Bacon—highlights the aesthetic revolutions of the last century, moving with extraordinary creative freedom between the formal purity of color and the dramatic tensions of post-war art.
