(ANSA) - ROME, JUN 16 - A signature label on the wooden door announces the wonder that is about to open up there, on the fourth floor of a petty bourgeois building in Rome. A triumph of colors, shapes, geometries that affect walls, lamps, ceilings, furniture, tiles, hanging clothes and every imaginable utensil and detail. It is FuturBalla, as recital label, or the house-work of art of Giacomo Balla (1871-1958), the world artist who in 1915 with Fortunato Deepero signed the Manifesto for the Futurist reconstruction and who lived here from the Thirties until his death with the daughters Luce and Elica. For the 150th anniversary of its birth, Maxxi celebrates it with Casa Balla. From home to the universe and back, an acura project by Bartolomeo Pietromarchi and Domitilla Dardi,which since 17 June has brought a selection of Balla's works to the rooms designed by Zaha Hadid, such as the door of the famous red Indian studio, logo with those of 8 contemporary Popular, Cassina with PatriciaUrquiola). And, above all, from 25 June, he performs the small "miracle", in collaboration with the Special Superintendence of Rome and the contribution of the Bank of Italy, of opening to the public that house where everything is art (until 21 November; the house only upon reservation in the weekend.).Cassina with PatriciaUrquiola).

    "Entering there - says the president of the Maxxi Foundation, Giovanna Melandri - you really understand who Balla was". In an installation, adds Pietromarchi, "which restores the dimension of the family and tells of an Italian genius who knew how to create things from nothing". The exhibition "Io, Villa Adriana" will also start on June 17 with canvases and photographic proofs by Luca Vitone, between the spaces of the museum and the residence of the emperor in Tivoli (until 12 September). And "Dante's Inferno", a tribute by Valentina Vannicola to the 700th anniversary of the death of the Supreme Poet (until 2 September). (HANDLE).
