October 21, 22, and 23, 2022
For its 4th edition, OPEN GALLERY goes digital, focusing on the new frontiers of digital art. Works by Italian and international artists will be on view on October 21, 22, and 23, 2022, at leading contemporary art galleries across Rome and the Lazio region that have joined the initiative.
Open Gallery Digital is a three-night event dedicated to digital visual arts, during which various contemporary art galleries host video art pieces by emerging Italian and international artists. It offers young contemporary art talents the opportunity to showcase their work while connecting with gallerists. Galleries will remain open at night to create an exclusive viewing experience that highlights the event, the artists, and the galleries themselves—allowing the public to explore and discover these spaces through the circuit.
The fusion of visual art and technology transforms video art into a cutting-edge form of audiovisual expression. By utilizing a new multimedia language—comprising images, sound, video, and performance—it can reach a wide audience.
The event’s artistic focus lies in multimedia visual arts and video art. Exhibitions will range from visual art to installations, creating a dynamic and diverse experience that broadens the scope of the selection and fosters greater interaction among the public, artists, and galleries.
The project aims to open a window onto video art, bringing it into the unique setting of art galleries. It offers a comprehensive vision that goes beyond the isolated digital artwork one might occasionally encounter in a museum or gallery. The project is a curated journey featuring a selection of works by young, internationally acclaimed artists from around the globe. They bring with them their unique artistic languages and diverse perspectives on the world, viewed through the lens of art from every corner of the planet. From Italy to South Africa, and from China to Israel, the selected artists will showcase their work and engage with the Eternal City over two nights of art.
The 2022 edition of OPEN GALLERY spans Rome and the Lazio region, focusing on the most compelling digital audiovisual productions and video art.
This initiative encourages a cultural, social, and urban movement, inviting visitors to roam the streets of Rome—admiring its beauty—and travel to the city's outskirts, where some of the participating galleries are located.
Thanks to extensive communication efforts, strong partnerships built over years of industry experience, collaborations with specialized media partners and international publications, and effective promotional and press office strategies, the event has consistently garnered significant media coverage and acclaim from both the public and the press.
