If you have the idea that Rome is coming, even remotely, to that of Julia Roberts in the film Eat, Pray, Love, you're off the road. Why do away with a thousand stale cliche that American cinema is so determined to stick, Rome today is in total turmoil, in a fusion of ancient and contemporary creativity and tradition, classicism and baroque. Not only Vespa, centurions posing and cobblestones, but concept store, works by superstars, design and art galleries. So, for those who had remained at the time of Roman Holiday, we need a holiday in the capital. To get a first idea of \u200b\u200bthe city, the council is to climb the hill Pincio at Trinita dei Monti, and enter the magnificent gardens of Villa Medici , sixteenth-century architectural marvel, home of the French. Enjoying the view, here you can experience the torments of punk with the exhibition Euro Punk , a trip to the anarchic visual culture developed in Europe between 1976 and 1980, including fanzines, LPs, posters, movies, photos and vintage t-shirt. Among the many temptations of the eternal city, there is also the exhibition-event Obey: A Private Collection, which opens this weekend at the gallery Bizarro World, a tribute to one of the most controversial writer of the moment, Shepard Fairey. And if Dorothy Circus Gallery is dedicated to the surrealism of catchy pop and lowbrow art, the Rome office of the Gagosian Gallery deals instead of work by Gregory Crewdson, with the exposure of a culmination of his work, gathered under the Title of Sanctuary.
And then there's fashion. This is especially the weekend Altaroma Altamoda , in which the city \u200b\u200bhosts events dedicated to the Capitoline maison. It begins with the exhibition-tribute to Fernanda Gattinoni. Fashion and Hollywood Stars in the Time of the Tiber, at the Museo Boncompagni Ludovisi , directed by Sofia Gnoli, a tribute to the great Italian couture and iconic stars of the years of Hollywood on the Tiber and the Dolce Vita, with photos, movies, clothes and costumes. Space instead of a fashion magazine, underground magazines and independent newspapers between the columns of the Temple of Hadrian, overlooking the cobbled Piazza di Pietra, where the fashion event on Paper will hold debates and discussions on current topics of fashion, installations, performance art and music . With cocktails and DJ sets in between the stones ancient Roman temple. At 2me Secondome Design Gallery opens the exhibition The Invisible Touch, photo exhibition by Ilaria Pril. Forty-two contemporary talents then have their creations in the future balance between tradition and exposition Limited / Unlimited: Limited Edition and boundless creativity, the Library Casanatense .
Regarding shopping, a must-visit in the studio of Delfina Delettrez. Daughter of Silvia Venturini Fendi and French jeweler Bernard Delettrez, child prodigy is a jewel of design. Her designs rock, gothic and romantic, between skulls surreal, bizarre animals, precious stones, bow brooches and rings, cuff bracelets and necklaces as a man's shirt collars are not only in the boutiques of Via del Governo Vecchio, but, until March 15, in its temporary store on Via Borgognona: Delfina also present here His project of solidarity For You A jewel for African children. Also jewelry, but jewelry, the Grand Gala of Bijoux, housed the stables Ruspoli downtown.

For those who prefer to indulge in the sins of Bacchus, the wine bar Trimani has probably the most complete wine cellar, with a history dating back to 1821 and comes to the present day without losing enamel.
In a weekend in Rome can not be exempt from a tour in Campo de 'Fiori and surrounding areas. Summer or winter it is, the Romans did not resist the temptation to sit at the tables of cafes in the street for lunch or take a drink. A cocktail is in Le Teste Matte a classic.

Next door is a restaurant and a small set back, rarefied atmosphere and sophisticated menu: you can dine by candlelight with background jazz. It's called The Library (highly recommended for a romantic dinner for couples).
Area Seven is a real cult.
