We are delighted to announce our second exhibition in Rome, the result of its partnership with Rhinoceros — a unique venue conceived by Alda Fendi and designed by Jean Nouvel, located in the very heart of the Italian capital. Entitled Atto 2/3: col tempo this exhibition, devoted to an element as fundamental as time, marks the second act of a three-part cycle that unfolds until March 2026.

Artists have long sought to understand what time does to form, to the body, to memory. Heraclitus saw the world as a perpetual flow, while Saint Augustine, meditating in Rome itself, marveled at this paradox: time exists only within human consciousness, stretched between the memory of the past and the anticipation of the future. In Rome, this reflection takes on a special resonance. Here, time becomes visible, almost tangible.

The artists gathered for this exhibition explore this invisible, fluid, and persistent material. Through trace, layering, repetition, or, conversely, the brilliance of a single fleeting instant, they probe the tension between transience and permanence. In an era saturated with instant images and fleeting information, to rethink time — its slowness, its depth, its density — becomes an almost political act. Perhaps, in the end, art’s true purpose is to give form to time, so that, for just a moment longer, we may inhabit it differently.

In parallel, since last September and continuing through March 2026, we occupy a space on the first floor of this historic building with a major installation by Olivier Ratsi. A true synthesis of the three exhibitions planned at Rhinoceros, this immersive work brings together the three themes that we seek to explore during our residency in Rome: light, time, and space.
