Valerio Ventura — "Rome, in particular"

When: 13/04/2026 - 24/04/2026

Casa delle Letterature hosts "Rome, in particular", a photographic exhibition by Valerio Ventura. The display features ten original works arranged in the cloister, each offering a focused view on architectural details, surfaces and unexpected urban corners.

What to see

The photographs act as a compact atlas of perspectives: every image is paired with a keyword — suggesting an action, a feeling or a mode of relating to urban space — and specifies the exact location of the shot, encouraging visitors to continue exploring the city beyond the gallery.
