Despite the scorching temperatures reached in recent weeks, Rome<\/strong> still offers us its five must-see exhibitions:<\/strong> contemporary art, architecture<\/strong>, and even “saved art.”<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are what they are and where you can go to visit them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Appriou Art Club #35 at Villa Medici until September 4, 2022 <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Villa Medici<\/a> <\/strong>hosts the exhibition Appriou Art Club #35<\/a><\/strong> until September 4, 2022. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The French artist, Jean-Marie Appriou, <\/strong>uses materials such as aluminum, bronze, glass, clay, and wax to represent fantastical worlds inhabited by human, animal, or plant figures. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Jean-Marie<\/strong> creates is a universe populated by horses, snakes, grasshoppers, sharks, and seahorses. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is precisely the transition between different natural elements<\/strong>, from aquatic to aerial, from underground to terrestrial<\/strong> that represents one of the central themes of Appriou’s<\/strong> work, set within the context of Villa Medici<\/strong>, which with its gardens and hidden corners is the perfect place to “plant”<\/strong> the artworks all around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Appriou Art Club #35<\/strong>, visitors are invited to take a walk<\/strong> along the exhibition path<\/strong> that connects the loggias of Balthus and Cleopatra<\/strong>, the sculptural group of the Niobids<\/strong>, the Gipsoteca<\/strong>, and the Room of Birds<\/strong>, former private studio of Ferdinando de\u2019 Medici.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The National Roman Museum – Palazzo Altemps<\/a><\/strong> in Rome<\/a> hosts until September 4, 2022<\/strong> the exhibition 10 Journeys in Italian Architecture<\/strong> featuring a selection of 110 images<\/strong> by young photographers along ten itineraries<\/strong> that traverse our peninsula and narrate the variety of its contemporary architectural heritage.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The photographs<\/strong> are added to the platform Atlante Architettura Contemporanea, <\/strong>created in 2018 by the General Directorate for Contemporary Creativity<\/strong> to enhance the contents of the National Census of Second Half of the 20th Century Architecture and to tell the story of Italy through the original perspective of architecture photographers.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the exhibited photographers are Roberto Boccaccino, Marina Caneve, Davide Cossu, Louis De Belle, Luca Girardini, and Marco Zorzanello, Paolo Lindozzi, Allegra Martin, Simone Mizzotti, Flavia Rossi, Alberto Sinigaglia<\/strong> who have produced a corpus of nearly 3000 photographs<\/strong> documenting over 250 architectures<\/strong>, from the recognized masterpieces<\/strong> <\/em>to the most surprising and lesser-known buildings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
