THE SUBTLE CHARM OF THE OBJECT. Still Life from the collections of the Galleria Nazionale D’Arte Moderna 1910 -1950.

IL-FASCINO-DISCRETO-DELL’OGGETTO_ENG

Still life paintings and sculptures are on display at Rome’s National Gallery of Modern Art (Galleria Nazionale D’Arte Moderna  – Gnam). The exhibit develops through three halls in which the works are accompanied by Haiku poetry in honour of Japanese culture. The visitor, like the still life, is called upon a closer analysis and an introspection that offers a different and extremely personal meaning to each work. The result being an interpretation of what is seen through the eyes of the soul. The selected pieces are lesser known works – those that the public would never see along the usual museum corridors. This is not to say that they are of a lesser quality or significance. They are simply artworks which are generally ignored. Gnam has decided to offer them a special place and allow the public to see another facet of some very famous artists from De Chirico, Manzù and Morandi to Pirandello and De Pisis.

VALERIO ROCCO ORLANDO The Reverse Grand Tour

The Reverse Grand Tour is an ambitious project realised by Italian artist Valerio Rocco Orlando over a period of a year thanks to an itinerant residence in some of Rome’s most prestigious foreign academies. In this exclusive preview, the artist is revealing the results of his research: a video-installation with portraits of artists from abroad who offer their personal viewpoints first-hand just like a chorus of conversations (Each artist speaks in his or her native tongue; the clip is sub-titled) and a series of photographs with views of studio interiors in which the concept of “room with a view” is completely reversed. The choice of curators Ludovico Pratesi and Angelandreina Rorro is of presenting the work of a new generation artist in relation to several historical works from the National Gallery of Modern Art collection linked to the Grand Tour as well as self-portraits and portraits by 19th and 20th century artists.

HELMUT NEWTON REINVENTS THE WOMAN

The Palazzo delle Esposizioni is dedicating its halls to the great photographer Helmut Newton. The exhibition focuses upon the artist’s first three books published in the late 1970’s. The 200 shots on display could be interpreted as his self-portrait. His first book, “White Women” brought the nude to Fashion, illustrating the change in the perception of the woman in western society. In “Sleepless Night” and “Big Nudes”, the set vanishes and the models take the streets. It is not Fashion that makes news but news that becomes the Fashion. The photographs have been selected and reprinted under the supervision of his wife June, with the intention of telling of the man behind and beyond the lens and his vision of the feminine universe – as well as its evolution.
