The Gallerie Nazionali di Arte Antica hosts an extraordinary event from November 23, 2024 to February 23, 2025, curated by Thomas Clement Salomon and Paola Nicita: the Portrait of Monsignor Maffeo Barberini, a painting by Caravaggio from a private collection that has never previously been on display to the public, will be exhibited in the Sala Paesaggi of Palazzo Barberini. This is a historical loan of the utmost value.

The work, first presented by Roberto Longhi in his article “Il vero ‘Maffeo Barberini’ di Caravaggio” published in 1963 in the journal Paragone, was referred to by this leading scholar as a fundamental key to understanding Caravaggio’s portrait painting.

According to Longhi, the painting, which reappeared in Rome without any accompanying documentation, had been kept for centuries in the Barberini family collection before ending up in a private collection, probably when the estate was dispersed in the 1930s. Leading scholars of Caravaggio and 17th century painting all agree the work is his.

This exceptional loan offers a unique opportunity for the public and experts to admire a work that has never previously been exhibited and is still part of the private collection it has belonged to for decades. The exhibition will also provide the chance to study the work in greater scientific-critical depth.

Alessandro Mele designed the communication and exhibition design for this exceptional event using Edificio Etc, supported by Avenir.

Schultze & Weaver was an architecture firm established in 1921 in New York City. As the architects of the Waldorf Astoria hotel, they also designed all the engraved and gilt inlay signage on the building’s facades. When researching the hotel’s vast historic archives, the building elevation drawings revealed that the typography was part of the fabric of the construction. The typeface, however, was never drawn beyond the characters of the hotel name. In collaboration with Noë & Associates, we expanded the original 1929 drawings into a full character set, creating the new Edificio Etc (formerly Waldorf Astoria) custom typeface. This ensures that all visual communications are instantly identifiable and unique. With a direct link to its Art Deco roots, yet inspired by a futuristic vision, we also developed the logo mark and patterning based on an original illustration retrieved from the archives.

Secondo's awaited return comes in the form of Unlikely Companions – a growling, alien rhythm from the warmer tropics of technofunk. Marco Passarani’s wild take flips the mood with some skittering Aphex-style darkness, primed for the late, after-hours dancefloor.

Designer Laurent Benner used Adriano Etc for the cover art of the LP. The logo of London-based record label What About Never is set in LL Moderne.
