MAXXI joins the Day of Contemporary Art with free access to selected exhibitions. It is an opportunity to put a museum visit on your itinerary without committing to a paid ticket. Check the event programme carefully: the announcement does not establish that every museum service is free.
The listed displays include Italian architecture, Andrea Pazienza’s drawings and The Large Glass. Choosing a route before you arrive can make the experience more manageable than trying to cover every gallery.
Visiting without Italian
Artwork and architectural displays can provide a visual starting point even when you cannot read every text. Pazienza’s comic pages are also worth looking at for their drawing, but their dialogue and references are harder to follow without Italian.
