Francesca Grosso | 25 Oct 2026 | Rome Art Week

Francesca Grosso Open Studio

Calligrams, colour works, and pen-and-ink pieces exploring the relationship between word, line, and colour. The artist launches a new collection of voices for the next social calligram as part of the #duemilavoci projects.

Francesca Grosso Open Studio

The artist’s studio opens its doors to the public on Sunday, October 25, offering an opportunity to enter the space where many of her works take shape and to gain a closer insight into her creative process.

Throughout the day, visitors will be able to explore the studio and discover a selection of calligrams, drawings, paintings, and sketchbooks, in an informal and direct journey through the artist’s practices, materials, and works. A selection of original artworks, fine art prints, ACEOs, and other works by the artist will also be presented and available for purchase.

The studio opening also represents an opportunity for active participation in the #duemilavoci projects. During the day, a new collection of texts will begin, this time open to all visitors. Each participant will be asked a question, and the responses collected will become part of the artist’s next collective and participatory work: a new social calligram.

The participants’ voices thus become an integral part of the creative process. Words, thoughts, and individual fragments will be transformed into a collective composition, in which the personal dimension intertwines with the social one.

The entire experience will be documented through photographic and video work by artist Franco Gonzalez Bertolino, who will collaborate with Francesca Grosso on the development of the project and the documentation of the participatory process.

The studio opening is conceived as a space for encounter, observation, and exchange: an opportunity to engage more closely with the artist’s practice, discover the place where her works are created, and, at the same time, contribute one’s own voice to the making of a new collective work.

Visitor Information
The studio is a small space and, in order to ensure a comfortable experience for visitors, access may be limited at certain times throughout the day. The studio can only be reached via stairs and is not accessible by elevator.
