Rome has not dedicated a large exhibition to this great Venetian master since 1937, in part because moving the large canvasses is a complicated affair. This is a unique event and well worth the chance to see and admire the almost fifty works of art on display for the occasion in the beautiful rooms of the Quirinale Stables. Jacopo Robusti, known as Tintoretto is one of the greatest exponents of the Venetian school and was probably the last great painter of the Italian Renaissance. The exhibition in the Quirinale Stables has therefore set itself the task of comprehensively illustrating his work by presenting the three main genres of the great Venetian master: religious paintings, mythological subjects, and portraits.
A section specially curated by Vittorio Sgarbi adds great value to the exhibition with paintings by the artists who worked at the same time as Tintoretto: from Tiziano to Bonifacio Veronese, from Giovanni Demio to Lambert Sustris and Parmigianino, and from El Greco to Schiavone and Paolo Veronese.

The 140 paintings on display in this exhibit arrived from all over the world and aim to reconstruct the interwoven fabric of the Eternal City in which Caravaggio lived and worked. The first years of the 17th century marked a taut and direct confrontation between two giants of Italian painting: Bologna’s Annibale Carracci – the undisputed leader of the Classicist movement – and Lombardy’s Caravaggio, the creator of a revolutionary form of representing reality. The works chosen for the exposition were selected in such a way as to portray the ...

Rome’s Macro Museum is presenting an exhibition supervised by Achille Bonito Oliva featuring 32 splendid works of art by 15 Chinese artists belonging to different generations. Thanks to these talented artists, it is possible to trace an abstraction in constant evolution since 1973 in which painting has acquired a minimalist dimension and finds its assonance with the artistic pursuit taking place in the West. In the words of Leonardo Da Vinci, “Art is a thing of the mind”. Contemporary Chinese Art – in the complexities of its ancient origins such ...
