Tiny Biennale for Rome Art Week | Opening Oct. 19th 6-8 PM | on display through Nov. 25, 2026

The Gallery of Art's "Tiny Biennale" for Rome Art Week. 
(on display through November 25, 2026).

Special Rome Art Week Opening: Monday, October 19 from 6-8 p.m.

Temple University Rome is pleased to celebrate its 60th anniversary with a special edition of the Tiny Biennale, our signature exhibition of small-scale works.

First conceived in 2011 by artist and colleague Susan Moore, the last edition of the Tiny Biennale was presented in January 2020 when we paused the exhibition following Susan’s passing in 2022. Now, on this joyful anniversary, we feel Susan would have loved to see it return—bringing together the array of artists connected to Temple Rome.

Founded in 1966 at Tyler School of Art in Rome, Temple University Rome has grown from its beginnings at Villa Caproni into a vibrant center for international education and the arts.

With the establishment of the Gallery of Art in 1990, our programming expanded across the classroom, the city, and the gallery. In recent years, as our community has grown to more than 800 student participants across three semesters every year. As a result of this growth, we found a new home at Via San Sebastianello 16, where we continue this legacy today.

It is with great pleasure that we invite you to our historic Tiny Biennale exhibition, to celebrate the many artists and faculty who have shaped our arts and learning community at Temple University in Rome.

Memories is the theme of this Anniversary Biennale, with works that measure just 8” x 8”, or 20 x 20cm, and will focus on the creativity artists have shared at Temple University Rome over the past 60 years.
