Rome: »Stillness« exhibition at the Biblioteca Angelica
Elvira Flamm: the complexity of everyday life
From January 24 to 31, one of Europe's oldest public libraries, the Biblioteca Angelica in Rome, is presenting the art exhibition Stillness. Among the exhibiting artists is Elvira Flamm with a work from her series Endless Fluidum.
January 21, 2026
The Biblioteca Angelica in Rome, located in Piazza di Sant'Agostino near Piazza Navona, was opened in 1604 and is one of the oldest public libraries in Europe. Art exhibitions are regularly held in the library's gallery rooms: On January 24, the exhibition Stillness will open there, featuring over 30 artists. Curated by Monica Ferrarini, the exhibition presents art as a place of silence, a place of conscious listening that contrasts with the chaotic changes in society. Art invites reflection. The exhibited works of art will be on display until January 31.
One of the participating artists is Elvira Flamm from the Art.Salon artist program. In her diverse work, the well-traveled artist repeatedly explores the complexity of the seemingly ordinary. In Rome, she is presenting a current work from her series Endless Fluidum (shown above), which is inspired by Flamm's encounters with various languages. Enriched by etymological studies of the origins of words, she artistically depicts the mutability and developmental capacity of languages in watercolors.
The artist and curator Ferrarini also collaborated on another project: Ferrarini's book Giubileo di Speranza: l'arte come via di rinascita (Jubilee of Hope: Art as a Way of Rebirth), the fifth book in the Capsule Art Collection. Contemporary insights series by Gangemi Editore SPA International in Rome, was recently published. It presents selected artists who look behind the facades of everyday life. Elvira Flamm is represented with a work from her series Icons without names (shown below), in which she criticizes the anonymity and fast pace of images from the mass media and lends permanence to content that often reports on crises and suffering. The starting point for the printed painting was a media photo of the famine in Somalia.
