It seems impossible, and yet it is true: summer has gone by in a flash and we are already on the threshold of autumn. What better occasion to carve out a few weekends of culture with the new exhibitions being prepared for the winter season? Here are the 3 we have selected for your travels, enjoy!
The capital is preparing to inaugurate a rich exhibition season on the occasion of the Jubilee, and one of the highlights of early 2025 will be an exhibition curated by Lina Botero and dedicated to her father, who died a year ago. Until 19 January 2025 it will therefore be possible, at the Palazzo Bonaparte, to admire paintings, watercolours, sculptures and even some previously unpublished works by the great Colombian artist Fernando Botero, famous for his iconic representations of the female universe.
The exhibition is open daily from 9 a.m. and costs €16.
On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of his death, the Palazzo Reale in Milan is hosting 100 masterpieces by one of the most beloved and popular artists of the last century: Edvard Munch. The monographic exhibition, realised in collaboration with the MUNCH Museum (Oslo, Norway), explores the meaning of existence and the various expressions the artist gave it in brushstroke after brushstroke. The works, spanning from 1880 to 1944, the year of Munch's death, thus retrace the Norwegian artist's entire career and allow the Italian public to understand his complex yet brilliant artistic production.
The exhibition will be open until 26 January 2025 at a cost of €15.
Short & Sweet: this is, in name and in fact, the extraordinary exhibition dedicated to the photographer Martin Parr at the Museo Civico Archeologico in Bologna.

An unpublished interview will also trace the career of one of the most famous contemporary documentary photographers.
The exhibition is open daily and costs €16.
