The futurist artist and poet GIACOMO BALLA at Palazzo Merulana, Rome’s newest art museum.
Palazzo Merulana, a new space for art and culture, displays the colorful and expressive paintings of Giacomo Balla; the protagonist of the Italian divisionism from the late nineteenth century. He was inspired by the cinema, fashion photography and relevant subjects that was presented daily in glossy magazines and simultaneously watched and imitated by millions of people.

Curated by Fabio Benzi, it investigates images associated with fashion photography, the cinema and the iconicity of the media.
