more information

For the first time in Rome, an overview of the French artist’s practice spanning more than forty years.

Presence and absence, physical proximity and emotional distance, the desire for closeness and the pain of separation, the tension between longing and unfulfilled desire: Sophie Calle’s work has long engaged with the fundamental elements of every relationship.

The “with” and the “without” – a person, a love, sight, an image – form the guiding thread of the exhibition. What emerges is the complexity of a body of work grounded in the interplay between the personal and the relational, reality and narrative, photography and writing.
