ROME INTERNATIONAL ART FAIR 2026 explores the relationship between body and space, as well as the ongoing hybridization between identities and cultural, physical, social, and urban contexts in contemporary society. The exhibition is articulated into two main sections: MIXING IDENTITIES and FUTURE LANDSCAPES.

MIXING IDENTITIES investigates the hidden dimensions of who we are and the countless ways in which identity can be expressed, guiding visitors through an experience that evokes a labyrinth of consciousness. FUTURE LANDSCAPES focuses on the notion of boundaries – between body, mind, and spirit; between individuals and the city; and between space and ground – transforming everyday surfaces into a fluid continuum of open, evolving ideas.

OUR LOCATION

ITSLIQUID Art Space Rome – Trastevere

On the banks of the Tiber River, the magnificent ITSLIQUID Art Space Rome – Trastevere was built in the 15th century by the noble Velli family in Piazza S. Egidio, in the Trastevere district, just 2 km from some of Rome’s major attractions, including the Imperial Forums, the Colosseum and St. Pietro Basilica. The large courtyard, doors with the Velli coat of arms, the external staircase, one of a kind among the few that have survived in Rome, and the upper floors are some of the oldest and most characteristic elements of the entire structure. The Palazzo was renovated in the early 1970s, and the interior was reorganised to accommodate small residences. The salons, which now serve as exhibition spaces, were restored to their original state by removing the structures and equipment of the workshops that were present and abandoned, allowing for the rediscovery of the main structural elements and a fresco.
