In case you drove by the Lungotevere, now you won’t miss it for sure. It’s Frontier’s construction site. Doug Aitken’s installation is close to completion.

A few days before Doug Aitken’s new art work opening we decided to reveal something more about the his roman art experience. As we said before, the internal walls of the room, set on the Tiberina Island, will host Aitken’s movie screening. Famed American artist Ed Ruscha is the protagonist of this movie. Ed is taking us for a mysterious urban walk, set in a moving and lively scenery.
