Mario Schifano in mostra a Roma, non solo a Palazzo delle Esposizioni. Alla Galleria Lombardi il pittore che sapeva osservare

A major retrospective of Mario Schifano (1934–1998) continues at Palazzo delle Esposizioni in Rome through May 27, showcasing over 100 works from his entire career—from early informal and material pieces to the first monochromes of the 1960s, TV Landscapes, oversized 1980s paintings, and 1990s works. Concurrently, a smaller exhibition titled "Mario Schifano | Io guardo" is on view until May 16, 2026, at Galleria Lombardi in Rome. Curated by Lorenzo and Enrico Lombardi, it features about twenty works spanning thirty years of the artist's activity, including monochromes, advertising signs, anemical landscapes, the Futurism revisited cycle, equestrian paintings, and chromatic materials of the 1990s. The show is accompanied by a catalog with a critical text by Silvia Pegoraro.

Sam Chermayeff and Stella Roos are planning a day-long wedding party for 250 people in an abandoned Fascist-era villa in Rome, originally built as Olivetti offices. The couple, who live in Berlin but have no family there, decided on Rome for its festive appeal. They initially considered joining the Catholic Church to secure a venue but ultimately arranged to hold their ceremony in a ruined church on the Appia Antica, with artist Tacita Dean asked to officiate. The party venue, inherited by a friend of a friend, sits near the Baths of Caracalla and features overgrown gardens and dusty rooms. Invitations were designed by their friend Leo of Something Fantastic, and the couple's mood board includes whimsical details like an ice sculpture, tiny potatoes, and a flower chain.
