Acquario Romano, by Francesco Gasparetti
Acquario Romano
Town: Rome
Address: Piazza Manfredo Fanti 47
Phone: +39 06 4468616
see map see map

Initially conceived as an aquarium, this building currently houses series of temporary exhibitions, chronicling modern and 20th Century art. The bizarre structure is set close to Stazione Termini. The Roman Aquarium was erected in 1887, and was to operate as a fish hatchery, as well as a meeting venue for the emerging middle class of the Esquiline district. Some of the art on permanent display here is related to the history of the building, such as the image in the elliptical hall. The few showcases which held the aquariums give an idea of the large scale of the entire structure.
