Six Must-See Exhibitions in Rome During Gallery Weekend
Soho House Rome hosted a weekend of gallery discovery and talks, curated by Sara Terzi, highlighting six exhibitions across the city. At Gagosian, Francesca Woodman's fifty photographs, many previously unseen, explore Surrealist affinities. Friedrich Kunath at Tim Van Laere presents painting, sculpture, installation, and video bridging German Romanticism and American West Coast pop culture. Francesco Cima's solo show 'Osteria del sole' at Spazio Amanita features landscapes linking distant physical and temporal spaces. Tornabuoni Arte's 'Passo a due' pairs works and letters by Fontana, Burri, Accardi, Dorazio, Magnelli, and others. Francesca Antonini Arte Contemporanea's 'Dopo le sei di sera. Derive del realismo magico' examines magical realism's persistence in contemporary art with works by Alessia Armeni, Anne Buckwalter, Dario Carratta, Ruoxi Jin, and Luca Rubegni. Monitor presents '50 x 35', a solo show by Elisa Montessori tracing Western and Eastern influences. The accompanying talk program featured Sara Terzi, Numero Cromatico, Mario Mainetti, and Sara Piccinini discussing collections, art-neuroscience intersections, and institutions like Fondazione Prada and Collezione Maramotti.
