A conversation with Michelangelo Pistoletto and the first guided tours of the Palazzo.
February 26th – May 22nd 2022
Palazzo Boncompagni offers the city a significant selection of 24 works by the great artist Marino Marini, more than ten years after his exhibition at the Civic Archaeological Museum.
There are 24 works on display – 23 of which are owned by the Foundation alongside a plaster sculpture from the Toninelli private collection. The artworks were created between 1939 and 1963 and are all dedicated to one of the artist’s most cherished themes and one that made him world famous: knights and horses.
May 7th – September 18th 2021
At Palazzo Boncompagni, discover the extraordinary encounter between two men who, at different times and in different guises, faced, reflected and practiced some of the key themes of humanity: Pope Gregory XIII, a great innovator, and Michelangelo Pistoletto, one of the greatest contemporary artists.
Thus it happens that the five centuries that separate them disappear in front of Pistoletto’s works, which are in close dialogue with the frescoes and rooms of a place that was a meeting point and a forge of ideas, solutions and resolutions.
