MOCA recently announced that they will be presenting an exhibition by Italian artist Francesco Vezzoli entitled "Cinema Vezzoli." The exhibition will feature the artist's film posters, sculptures, and two of his video works from MOCA's collection, GREED, A New Fragrance by Francesco Vezzoli (2009), and A Love Trilogy: Self-Portrait with Marisa Berenson as Edith Piaf (1999).

Vezzoli is described as a master of "deconstructing the vocabulary of filmmaking and in analyzing how celebrity-driven culture influences art and the public imagination." In addition to the works in the exhibition, MOCA in collaboration with yoox.com will present an official online pop-up store. "Cinema Vezzoli" opens April 27 and will run through the summer, ending on August 11.
