Set in the gloomy streets of Rome under occupation in the final days of World War II, Rome Open City narrates the stories of ordinary people fighting for freedom while facing the dangers and moral dilemmas caused by the oppressive regime. Being instrumental in laying the foundations of the Italian Neorealism movement, the poignant film delves into the dramatic entanglement of fates involving partisan Giorgio Manfredi, his fiancée Pina, and the benevolent priest Don Pietro Pellegrini, all set against the backdrop of anti-Nazi-resistance.
In 1493, exactly 500 years ago, Leonardo da Vinci was finishing the preparations for casting the equestrian monument (4 times life size), which Ludovico il Moro, Duke of Milan commissioned in memory of his father some 12 years earlier.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
Giorgio de Chirico was born on July 10, 1888, in Volos, Greece, to an Italian family. His mother, Gemma Cervetto, was from a family of Genoa origin, but most likely she was born in Izmir. His father, Evaristo, was born on June 21, 1841 in the Büyükdere district of Istanbul.
