As the academic year draws to a close, fine arts scholars at the British School at Rome are exhibiting their work in Fine Arts 2004, 12-19 June. The exhibition opens on 11 June at 18.30, with a performance by Juho Laitinen, cello, and Keir Fraser, electronics, of Seili, a work by Laitinen named after and inspired by an island off the coast of western Finland.

Vito Bila, an Australian silversmith of Sicilian origin, has been a resident at the school since April, and has used the time away from his Melbourne workshop to explore the form of vessel forms. Irishman Simon McBrides art explores some of the odd, repetitive dreams he has been having during his stay in Rome. Painter Sigrid Holmwood believes that the way we see things can be studied better by repeating a subject persistently in this case trees in order to deconstruct its layers of reality.

The exhibition will also feature work by artists Angela Gill, Margarita Gluzberg, David Leapman, Geoff Uglow and architects Daniel Mielgo Bregazzi and Peter Bttgens.

The Italian Institute for Africa and the Orient has helped organise an exhibition of photographs taken by Luigi Primoli in India in the early 1900s, at the Museo Nazionale dArte Orientale until 9 Sept. Luigi Primoli brother of the more famous Giuseppe was the son of Roman nobleman Pietro Primoli and the princess Carlotta Bonaparte. He spent much of his childhood at the court of Napoleon III in Paris, but returned to Rome in 1870. He and his brother were considered eccentrics on account of their passion for photography, which they dubbed fotografomania.

Luigis travels to India, which are thought to have taken place between 1904 and 1906, made a lasting impression on him. The exhibitions 205 photographs are divided into thematic sections including the natural landscape, villages and cities.

The human body, how it is viewed, how it conveys the invisible qualities of the person it belongs to, and how light and shadow affect this view; this is what Valerie Honnart tries to express in her exhibition Morsi dOmbra, organised by the Saint-Louis de France Cultural Centre.

Honnart was born in Paris, but her art is strongly influenced by a six-year stay in Hong Kong, especially in her choice of media: Chinese inks and coloured varnishes. The exhibition takes place 10-19 June at Studio Decoratori, Via Francesco de Sanctis 13, near Piazza Mazzini in Prati, and is open Mon-Fri 10.00-13.00, 15.00-19.00, and Sat 10.00-13.00.
