Rome Art Week 2024: Hundreds of Free Contemporary Art Exhibitions Across the City

The ninth edition of Rome Art Week returns from October 21 to 26, 2024, offering hundreds of free contemporary art exhibitions, open studios, and cultural projects across the Italian capital. Nearly 200 institutions participate, involving over 600 artists and almost 100 curators. The program includes land art interventions by Maria Ludovica Pennacchia, performances by Simona Benedetti and Adele Foffi inspired by John Cage, and numerous solo and group shows featuring prominent names like David LaChapelle (at Deodato) and Helen Frankenthaler (at Gagosian). Unconventional venues such as hotels, libraries, theaters, and commercial spaces also host events, including Palazzo Ripetta, Carpegna Palace, Cosarte Spazio Creativo, Aps Stamperia del Tevere, Atelier Montez, and Candle Store. To help navigate the extensive program, guided walking tours are organized by neighborhood or theme, and a 'Points of View' path offers curated selections by local critics, curators, and artists. The event website provides a map, calendar, and detailed information for all appointments, with a booking section where required.
