That solidarity has to do with “the filthy lucre” is not so obvious, yet the term comes from solidum, money that was paid to professional fighters, the “soldiers”. Paying in solidum still characterizes, in the legal sphere, a bond of interdependence between debtors.

The word, during the French Revolution, expands the boundaries of its meaning to reach the ethical horizon of solidarity, which indicates closeness and sharing.

Drawings, poems, letters and architectural projects of his second stay in Rome on view

The British Museum in London recounts Michelangelo through a series of precious drawings, poems, letters, and architectural projects relating to his second stay in Rome, from 1534 until his death thirty years later. The great genius left a seemingly democratic republican Florence in doubt, but in the midst of those political controversies that later brought to power Cosimo I de’ Medici (1537).

From the exhibition emerge a complete portrait of the architect and an overview of the culture of the second ‘900

An intellectual portrait, "a bit cubist," says Giovanni Agosti – curator of the event dedicated to Gae Aulenti (1927-2012) at the Milan Triennale – more than a real retrospective focused exclusively on architecture.

The exhibition traces the 20 years of the eclectic artist’s career

The Macro just hosted, until August 25th, the first anthology dedicated to Elisabetta Benassi, a Roman artist born in 1966. “Self-portrait at work” traces over twenty years of career, with a rich selection of historical works of the early 2000s alongside recent works and three new productions made specifically for this exhibition.

On display a collection of 60 garments and accessories ranging from the 18th century to the 2000s

We find the creations of Mario Fortuny for Eleonora Duse and those of Emilio Schubert for the divas of the 50s

Over 300 shots of 140 protagonists of contemporary photography on view

A shot can reveal the fragility of an ephemeral beauty, investigating the balance between strength and vulnerability. This connection, inherent in the human condition, becomes the dominant theme of “Fragile Beauty: Photographs from the Sir Elton John and David Furnish Collection”, the largest temporary photography exhibition held at the Victoria & Albert Museum.

An articulated exhibition itinerary unfolds in 3 locations: Museo novecento, former building of the Leopoldine and Istituto degli innocenti

“Do Not Abandon Me” is the thematic focus of the exhibition at the Museo Novecento, in the former building of the Leopoldine and in the Istituto degli Innocenti, emblematic places of social support and childhood. Yes, Louise Bourgeois (Paris, 1911 - New York, 2010) would have liked this title, who warned:

On view over 150 artworks that have as common denominator the versatility of the artist

With “Jean Cocteau - The Juggler’s Rematch,” the Peggy Guggenheim Collection offers over 150 artworks that have as their common denominator the incredible versatility of the artist. An early writer (at the age of twenty, he published his first collection of poems) and skilled caricaturist, he was able to capture on paper, with a few agile pencil strokes, a character, a situation, a personality.

He comes from a family of well-known gallery owners. After years of exclusively web activity, he has now opened a home in Genoa

Daniele Comelli Art was born as an online gallery and, from March 2024, it acquired the physical dimension. We opened a physical space so that customers would appreciate the works to the fullest. Observing a sculpture or a painting in the right light and place is an experience that can trigger intense sensations. You have to design the space and the lighting well.

The entire production from 1984 to today on view

Yoshimoto Nara’s auction record dates back to 2019: about 25 million dollars beaten by Sotheby’s Hong Kong for *Knife Behind Back* (2000), a few months after the 4.5 million dollars of *Sleepless Night (Cat)* (1999) from Christie’s Hong Kong. In both cases, the subject, recurrent in the artist’s works, is a little boy or a little girl on horseback between candor and evil.
