Isabella Ducrot in UNAROMA 

The major group show launching MACRO’s new season conveys an image of Rome’s hybrid, diverse and generative art scene. 

Across different expressive languages—visual arts, music, cinema and performance—and with an intergenerational outlook, UNAROMA composes a tracking shot of the city filmed through an ideal green screen: a continuous narrative that moves through its cultural fabric, made of encounters between heterogeneous communities in constant ferment. 

If in cinema the green screen is a technique that allows multiple images to be layered, in the exhibition it becomes a common surface on which to compose and project a stratification of gestures, actions and visions by over seventy artists from different generations and practices.
