‘Il Palazzo della Farnesina e le sue collezioni’
Rome, Museo dell’Ara Pacis, 20th May – 3rd July 2011
A collection of works ‘on the move’ from the Palazzo Farnesina (home to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs since 1959) to the Ara Pacis Museum in Rome. The works (along with examples from the ‘Farnesina Design’ collection) – on show to the public for the first time – are from the last century, and the 100 or so pieces aim to ‘open a window’ on this, effectively, private collection. A (long) list of some of the artists represented can be seen in this article (Italian only).
