RAW 2025 – Candle Store & Antonio Lavorgna
Group Exhibition | October 20–25, 2025

On the occasion of Rome Art Week 2025, the Candle Store, in collaboration with artist Antonio Lavorgna, once again opens its doors to contemporary art with a group exhibition that weaves together generations, languages, and creative tools.

Following last year’s experience, the exploration continues: young talents and established masters meet, engage, and confront one another, with a gaze always turned towards new technologies and the evolution of art in the digital age. This path combines different disciplines – photography, painting, ceramics, installation, digital works, and AI art – to narrate how artistic tools transform and expand without losing their roots and depth.

Featured artists:

• Stefano de Paolis (Swanph) – artistic nude photography

• Maria Cristina Cerminara – digital work on print

• Ottavio Coppola – ceramics

• Ozge Sahin – installation

• Ilaria Fabi (YaYa) – painting

• Claudia Fabi – painting

• Antonio Lavorgna – AI art

The exhibition will be installed on October 20th, and will be open to the public from October 21st to 25th, 2025, during store hours: 10:00–13:00 | 15:00–20:00.

What makes this project unique is the vitality of the Candle Store itself: the spontaneous flow of customers and tourists transforms the shop into a living gallery, a fluid environment where art and everyday life encounter one another.

An invitation to immerse in diverse languages, to perceive the creative tension between tradition and future, matter and algorithm, hand and machine.
