Rome Hosts Major Exhibition on Artist-Collectors Across Five Museums
The exhibition "Le altre opere. Artisti che collezionano artisti" (The Other Works. Artists Who Collect Artists) opens across five museums in Rome, running from March to September 2020. Curated by Lucilla Catania, Claudio Crescentini, Daniela Perego, and Federica Pirani, the project showcases works from the private collections of over 100 artists, revealing the reciprocal esteem and affective bonds between artist-collectors. The venues include Museo Carlo Bilotti (until March 29), Museo Pietro Canonica (March 6–April 19), Museo di Roma in Trastevere (March 13–April 19), Galleria d'Arte Moderna (April 8–June 3), and Museo Napoleonico (June 19–September 27). The initiative was conceived in 2018 by Catania and Perego, who noted that artists' collections often reflect personal histories and creative exchanges. The exhibition also draws parallels with Carlo Bilotti's patronage and the Museo d'Inverno in Siena, founded in 2016, which invites artists to curate selections from their own collections and create site-specific works. Coordinators include Arianna Angelelli, Laura Panarese, Ileana Pansino, Roberta Perfetti, and Carla Scicchitano.
