P
aolo Antonacci represents the third generation of well known art dealers established in Rome in 1916. After twenty years of training in the family business, Paolo founded his own gallery in 1998 in via del Babuino 141 / A, in the centre of the art district of Rome, carrying on the family tradition.

 

Paolo Antonacci’s primary interest is in Italian and European paintings of “The Grand Tour” and the “Vedute” of the late Eighteenth and Nineteenth Century, focusing on the views of Rome and its Campagna celebrated by hundreds of artists, both Italian and foreign. His constant research, reflected in the numerous exhibitions organized in his gallery, has led him to be considered a valued specialist in this field.

 

 

Over the years, Paolo Antonacci has forged strong relationships with many National and International collectors, scholars and museum curators. He has sold important pictures to the Museo di Roma, to the Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna of Roma, to the Musei Vaticani, to the Museo del Corso, to the American Academy of Roma, and to the Sovrintendenza per il Polo Museale Fiorentino.

 

Many events has been organized in the gallery such as exhibitions of contemporary artists, of photography, of ancient coloured marbles, plasters from the Chiurazzi collection and many others.

 

On several occasions in recent years, the gallery Paolo Antonacci has lent important works from his collection to institutional exhibitions such as the Galleria Nazionale di Arte Moderna, Palazzo Braschi, the Museo Napoleonico, Istituto Nazionale per la Grafica, Museo del Corso, Castel Sant’Angelo, Museo Storico Vaticano, Complesso del Vittoriano, Roma; the MART, Rovereto, the Villa Mondragone in Frascati, the Palazzo Ducale in Genoa, Palazzo Milzetti in Faenza.
