Colosseo, piazza del Colosseo. Info 0639967700
From 5 Mar to 4 Sep: Trionfi romani (Roman Victories)
The bas-reliefs, bronzes, coins, sculptures and paintings on display aim to get the concept of ‘Roman vistories’ across to the public by telling us about the ceremonies and festivities surrounding the historic big battles. The first section of the exhibition relates to victories and their development, from the Etruscan to the Hellenistic worlds; the second section shows images of illustrious victors and the illustrious defeated – among which Caesar, Pompeius and Octavian – and reproduces battle scenes. The last section is devoted to conquered peoples: the Greeks, the Judeans, the Dacians and the Barbarians. Until 15 Mar h8,30-17; from 16 to 29 Mar h8,30-17,30; from 30 Mar to 31 Aug h8,30-19,15; from 1 Sep h8,30-19. €11, reduced €6,50

Complesso del Vittoriano, via San Pietro in Carcere
From 7 Mar to 29 Jun: Renoir. Tradizione e innovazione (Renoir. Tradition and innovation)
The city of Limoges gave birth to one of the greatest Impressionist artists, Pierre-Auguste Renoir. The artist was a huge fan of music and profoundly smitten with female sensuality – female nudes were among his favourite subjects. His first significant experiences in the field of painting were had together with other talented artists Monet and Sisley, with whom he painted outdoors under the sky of Fointainebleau. Approximately 150 creations on loan from Italian and international museums go on show and explore Renoir’s human and artistic journey. These works are suffused with sun, light and colour; they are snapshots of intimate and tender moments, immersed in an atmospheric intensity. Mon-thu h9,30-19,30; fri and sat h9,30-23,30; sun h9,30-20,30. €10, reduced €7,50

Quirinale, Piazza del Quirinale, 1
Until 2 Mar: Nostoi. Capolavori ritrovati
The word "Nostos" in Greek signifies return. War heroes and art works are on show in the Gallery of Pope Alessandro VII. Stolen and removed from their original setting by unscrupulous merchants and then sold to museums around the world, these works have returned to Italy thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Carabinieri, the Judiciary and the Ministry for the Arts. Louis Godard is the curator of this show that contains pieces like Vibia Sabina, the Calyx Crater by Assteas, Antefix with Silene and dancing Menades made out of terracotta. Tue-sat h10-13; h15,30-18,30

Braccio di Carlo Magno, piazza San Pietro (Città del Vaticano). Info 0668193064; 0669884095
From 13 Mar to 13 Apr: Roma-Santiago/ Santiago-Roma. Itinerari, segni e memoria dell'Europa del pellegrinaggio (Roma-Santiago/ Santiago-Roma. Itineraries, signs and memories of Europe as a pilgrimage site)
Paolo Caucci von Saucken curated this photography exhibition exploring the churches, streets, landscapes and buildings of this famous pilgrimage. People have once again become sensitive to the appeal of pilgrimages and many are walking from Rome to Santiago and back again as a result. This exhibition explores the possibility of the "Camino de Santiago" and the "Via Francigena" being rejoined, and then carrying on to Jerusalem both by water and by land, recomposing the itineraries of the three 'major pilgrimages'. "Roma-Santiago/ Santiago-Roma" is a pilgrimage of the soul and of the mind. Mon-tue and thu-sun h10-18. Admission free

Palazzo Venezia, via del Plebiscito, 118. Info 0669994319
Until 18 May: 10 Grandi Mostre. Sebastiano Del Piombo. Venezia 1485 - 1547
Sebastiano Luciani, known as "del Piombo" - who famously argued with Michelangelo regarding the execution of the Sistine Chapel’s decorations - is a Renaissance painter from Venice who has always been underrated by critics. Given that the Venetian Sebastiano Del Piombo was the only painter capable of being a counterpoint to Raphael’s poetics in the 16th century, this assessment is unjust. The artist spent much of his artistically more mature period in Rome and now the city has put on the first retrospective dedicated to him featuring large canvases, life-size portraits, paintings on wood and preparatory sketches. The show tracks Del Piombo’s artistic development, from the warm colourful work of his beginnings to the darker atmospheres of the later period. Tue-thu h10-20; fri-sat h10-22. €10, reduced €8

Scuderie del Quirinale, via XXIV Maggio, 16. Info 0639967500
Until 10 Jun: Ottocento. Da Canova al Quarto Stato (1800s. From Canova to the Fourth State)
This is the first major exhibition dedicated to Italian 19th century painting, a century during which our country was conquering the rest of Europe with the likes of Verdi, Puccini, Rossini, but still wasn't considered to excel culturally. The over 100 masterpieces to go on show at the Scuderie del Quirinale show how this century boasted a rich selection of interesting paintings. Artists such as Appiani, Palagi, Hayez and representatives of the Milanese Romantic School, the Macchiaioli (Fattori, Lega, Signorini) in Florence, the Vedutists of the Posillipo and Morelli School in Naples created works that were free of classical restrictions and who nourished themselves with ideas from the Risorgimento and Romanticism. These paintings showed everyday scenes and highlighted the existential unease of modern man. Sun-thu h10-20; fri and sat h10-22,30. €10, reduced €7,50

**************************

Complesso del Vittoriano, via San Pietro in Carcere
Until 2 Mar: Adotta un disegno. I bambini di Emergency (Adopt-a-drawing. The children of Emergency)
An array of visual artists and musicians took part in this project by the charity Emergency, transforming the drawings of children who have received aid and assistance in hospitals and institutions around the world into works of art. The artists in question include Daniele Silvestri, Fiorella Mannoia, Vinicio Capossela, Anselm Kiefer, Massimiliano Fuksas and many others who elected to translate childrens' stains of colour.

Palazzo delle Esposizioni, via Nazionale, 194. Info 06489411
Until 2 Mar: Gregory Crewdson
The photos of one of the most famous teachers of the Yale School of Art in New Haven - Gregory Crewdson - are shown in a travelling exhibition touring various major European cities. The photographer's clearly narrative aims incorporate the theatrical use of light, the fairytale and fantastical and the Freudian reading of the contemporary. The alienated society depicted by Crewdson reflects the neuroses and anxieties of the artist, whose realistic take makes him one of the most significant exponents of a technique known as 'staged photography'. The narrative power of the photos is very strong, especially those inspired by films. Some of the photos manage to capture in one shot the whole essence of a film...

Museo Carlo Bilotti - Aranciera di Villa Borghese, viale F. La Guardia, 13. Info 0682059127
Until 2 Mar: Movie Stars. Ritratti di Timothy Greenfield-Sanders (Movie Stars. Portraits by Timothy Greenfield-Sanders)
Sanders' shots are incursions into the soul and psychology of his subjects. This master of photography penetrates into the souls of the people he photographs thanks to his innate capacity for close contact with people, his ability to reach their core. Celebrities, actors and directors have chosen to be immortalised in two-dimensional form by this photographic genius. Orson Welles, Alfred Hitchcock, Spike Lee, Woody Allen, Darren Aronofsky, Wes Anderson, John Malkovich, Jodie Foster, Glenn Close and Tom Hanks are just some of those who are featured in this exhibition in the Bilotti museum. It would be unfair to define them simply as photos; these are works of art... Tue-sun h9-19. €6, reduced €4

Until 2 Mar: Ugo Mulas. La scena dell'arte Ugo Mulas. La scena dell'arte (Ugo Mulas. The scene of art)

Until 23 Mar: Variazioni. Ritratti d'autore di Isabella Ducrot (Transformations. Personal portraits by Isabella Ducrot)
Popular and refined, Isabella Ducrot’s canvases bring together the Eastern tradition of embroidery (from Russia and Turkey) and portrait work. Generous swathes of colour, large flowers, stylised geometric figures and collage mark out these portraits – visual reproductions of Russian and Italian musicians. The artists represented have something in common: they have all explored the motifs of popular tradition, developing them into new languages. In the very same way Ducrot uses handmade canvases as the basis for her artistic creations.

Museo di Roma in Trastevere, piazza S. Egidio, 1b. Info 060608
Until 24 Mar: Trastevere. Società e trasformazioni urbane dall’Ottocento ad oggi (Society and urban transformation from the 1800s to the present day)
The 1000-year-old Roman neighbourhood of Trastevere has gone through difficult historic and social events and has always had a very strong sense of identity. Such as the restoration and renovation work carried out on the churches of Santa Cecilia and Santa Maria in the 19th century, the construction of river-containing walls and the creation of many cultural institutions. This exhibition does justice to the vitality and spirit of Trastevere, it tells us the different phases of the neighbourhood’s existence and explores some of the famous personalities who were raised here, such as Rino Gaetano, Francesco De Gregori and Antonello Venditti. A historic/urban exploration of great interest. Tue-sun h10-20. €5,50, reduced €4

Palazzo delle Esposizioni, via Milano, 13. Info 06489411
Until 30 Mar: National Geographic. AcquaAriaFuocoTerra

Until 3 Apr: Il cerchio ristretto. Fotografie e installazione di Anastasia Khoroshilova (The inner circle. Photos and installations by Anastasia Khoroshilova)
Moscovita, classe 1978, questa giovane fotografa viene considerata dalla critica un'artista del "post-diaspora", in quanto formatasi a Berlino e, successivamente, rientrata nel Paese d'origine: Anastasia Khoroshilova. Che, dopo aver esposto - accaparrandosi immancabilmente i favori del pubblico - in tutto il mondo, presenta ora la sua personale romana. Soggetto delle fotografie visionabili, tutte in grande formato e in bianco e nero, giovani studenti che frequentano la Scuola Ebraica di Mosca - il metaforico "cerchio ristretto". Particolarità dell'allestimento la sua disposizione: è circolare - il "cerchio ristretto" è anche una realtà dello spazio - e il retro di ogni immagine è costituito da uno specchio. Il risultato è la sovrapposisizione, nel campo visivo del fruitore, dei soggetti fotografati e dei visitatori della mostra. Mon-fri h10-18. Admission free

Museo Hendrik C. Andersen, via P. S. Mancini, 20. Info 063219089/0632298302

The Andersen Museum focuses on foreign artists working in Italy. This time it dedicates an exhibition to the bas-reliefs and sculptures (on loan from the Fries museum in Leeuwarden) of Dutch sculptor Pier Pander. Educated at Amsterdam's Art Institute and the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris he set up his atelier-home in Rome, which soon became a meeting point for artists, writers and travellers from Holland who came to the Eternal City between the late 1800s and early 1900s. Pander’s "Tempio dell'Arte" (Temple of Art) - made up of five imposing nudes representing Dawn, Emotion, Thought, Courage and Strength – is a perfect example of the visionary and utopian spirit embraced by the Andersen Museum.

The four sections of the exhibition include one dedicated to photography and another to visual art.

Palazzo delle Esposizioni, via Nazionale, 194. Info 06489411
Until 18 May: Cina XXI secolo. Arte fra identità e trasformazione (China 21st Century. Art between identity and transformation)
China is examined by its contemporary artists: Chen Chieh-Jen, Liu Xiaodong, Sun Yuan e Peng Yu, Wang Du, Wang Qingsong, Weng Fen and Yang Fudong. Each has his/her own style but all denounce the sort of modern society that alienates the individual. Located somewhere between communism and capitalism, China is changing to the core of its genetic code at vertiginous speed. This is having an impact on the country's citizens. The Chinese today live in a context of chaos, mass consumption, nihilism and hyper-realism and these works examine the modern lives of these people in an intimate and psychological dimension. A series of film screenings entitled "New Chinese Cinema 1992-2007" curated by Marco Muller and readings with contemporary Chinese authors in "The new Chinese Literature" curated by Maria Rita Masci will take place alongside the exhibition.

Museo delle Mura, via di Porta San Sebastiano, 18. Info 060608
Until 8 Jun: Pechino 2008: il tempo, gli animali, la storia. Un’opera di Huang Rui (Beijing 2008: Time, Animals, History. A work by Huang Rui)
A major site-specific installation created for the Museo delle Mura by Chinese avant-garde artist Huang Rui. The artist derived his inspiration from the large stone buildings and monuments in Rome and created a striking piece made out of 2,008 bricks collected from the ‘hutong’ neighbourhoods in Beijing, old quarters which are being demolished to create new developments for the Olympics. The soul of the show is its Eastern chronological articulation, which sees time as a perpetual cycle of long temporal cycles, whereas in the West time is a succession between one number and the next with no sense of continuity. Each of the 2,008 bricks features a western numeral (from 1 to 2008) and a date taken from the Chinese calendar, as well as the name of the emperor of that time. The bricks are further organised by Chinese zodiac signs and animal spirits. Tue-sun h9-14

Museo delle Terme di Diocleziano - Aula XI, piazza dei Cinquecento, 57. Info 0639967700
Until 8 Jun: Pedro Cano. Identidad

'Identidad' is a show of large 20 oil paintings and 30 watercolours. Cano's pieces explore the human body and show men and women walking and with their backs turned. The figures' actions are what identifies them, they are their "identidad". Tue-sun h9-19,45. €10, reduced €6,50

Fondazione Memmo Palazzo Ruspoli, via del Corso, 418
Until 15 Jun: Capolavori che ritornano. I dipinti della collezione del Gruppo Banca Popolare di Vicenza (Masterpieces return. The paintings of the Gruppo Banca Popolare di Vicenza Collection)
A show organised chronologically by school and period - the Tuscan School from the 13th to 15th centuries, the Veneto school in the 15th and 16th centuries – has been put together with works made available by Gruppo Banca Popolare di Vicenza and on loan from prestigious Italian and international museums. There’s also a virtual gallery dedicated to Tuscan and Veneto art in the 17th and 18th centuries. The last section is dedicated to the 19th and 20th centuries, in particular to marble sculptures from that period. Among the works on show a particular mention must go to Bartolomeo Montagna’s "Madonna and Child", Tintoretto’s "Portrait of a Young Man with an Ermine Trimmed Coat”, Antonio Canova’s bust of "Calliope" and Tiepolo’s "Head of an Oriental Man".

Musei di Villa Torlonia - Casino dei Principi. Via Nomentana, 70. Info 060608
Until 15 Jun: Carlo Levi e Roma. Il respiro della città (Carlo Levi in Rome. The breath of the city)
This exhibition makes clear the desire for artistic renewal and innovation in the early 20th century, when art was no longer satisfied with representing man according to predetermined aesthetic canons but rather wanted to empathise with him. The exhibition displays 28 paintings by painters from the Roman School (among which Pirandello, Mafai, Scipione, Trombadori, Afro, Ferrazzi, Scialoja, Melli and Capogrossi), but above all 46 paintings by Carlo Levi (dated from 1926 to 1954). Levi’s (and his followers’) style evolved with the passing of time: the colours became more decisive, the brush strokes gained body, the still lifes moved closer to the Expressionistic style, the views became visionary. Levi’s portraits should garner a special mention: the painter conceives of them first as a form of auto-representation and an account of our own subjectivity, and in second place, a way of establishing a dialogue with the subject represented. Tue-sun h9-17,30 until 29 Mar; tue-sun h9-19 from 30 Mar. From €5 to €9

Mercati di Traiano - Museo dei Fori Imperiali, via IV Novembre, 94. Info 0682059127
Museo dei Fori Imperiali (Museum of the Imperial Fora)
An absolutely new museum space and the result of a sophisticated restoration programme aimed at recovering the original aspect of the buildings and the expansion of external pathways. Some statistics for the museum: it is 2000sqm in size, contains 172 marble fragments and 15 models. Innovation and tradition come perfectly together in this venue, which increases the visitor’s appreciation of the role of colour in the ancient site, and looks at the relationship between architecture and sculpture. The museum is accessible to disabled people and equipped with ramps, chairlifts and lifts. Tue-sun h9-19. €6,50, reduced €4,50
