La Fondazione, the new cultural space for contemporary creativity

La Fondazione
depuis 28 Septembre 2019 à 31 Mars 2020

In a splendid building dating from the 1920s, in the heart of Rome, a new space for contemporary creativity is now open: La Fondazione, a non-profit cultural centre, focused on the global art scene.

In via Francesco Crispi, with a floor space of around 700 square meters, it is characterized by a large oval hall and a spacious entrance, turned into a sort of project room complementary to the main exhibition hall, thanks the large glass door that make it visible from the outside day and night. The entrance underlines the idea of artistic dialogue and sharing with the city that is at the root of the project.

Established by Nicola Del Roscio, president of the foundation that bears his name and of the Cy Twombly Foundation in New York, and curated by Pier Paolo Pancotto, La Fondazione inaugurated with a joint exhibition presenting the works of four contemporary artists: Geta Brătescu, Adrian Ghenie, Ciprian Mureşan, Şerban Savu.

The programme forsees the staging of original exhibitions by artists of international standing but who are still little known in Italy, along with a calendar of events offering insights into developments in filmmaking, music and literature. Particular attention will be paid to the themes of science, environment and biodiversity.
