I Martedì Critici: Carlo Maria Mariani at Rome's Foreign Ministry

On December 6, 2016, the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Rome hosted 'I Martedì Critici – Carlo Maria Mariani', curated by Alberto Dambruoso and Italo Tomassoni. The event focused on the work of painter Carlo Maria Mariani, a key figure in Italian conceptual and figurative art. The series 'I Martedì Critici' (Critical Tuesdays) is a recurring program that brings together critics, curators, and artists for discussions. The event was promoted by Artribune, which also offers a WhatsApp channel and a daily newsletter. Helga Marsala, an art critic and curator who has taught at the Academies of Fine Arts in Palermo and Rome, is among the contributors to the platform. The gathering provided an opportunity to examine Mariani's artistic trajectory and his influence on contemporary Italian painting.
