# Neon Sign Art Exhibitions This Rome Exhibition Features Showcases the Work of Maurizio Nannucci By Rebecca Byers | Published 2015-08-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rome-exhibition References: [retaildesignblog.net](http://retaildesignblog.net/2015/08/01/where-to-start-from-exhibition-by-maurizio-nannucci-at-maxxi-rome-italy/) Housed within the Zaha Hadid-designed MAXXI Museum, this Rome exhibition is a stunning solo show highlighting the works of Maurizio Nannucci. Entitled 'Where To Start From,' the exhibit was curated by Bartolomeo Pietromarchi and features 30 of Nannucci's pieces that span his whole career. Of the 30 Nannucci pieces showcased in 'Where To Start From' are two pieces created specifically for the event. The first, 'Sound Samples,' is a sound installation created in collaboration between Simone Conforti and Nannucci. The second, 'More Than Meets The Eye,' is a large-scale neon piece for the MAXXI's facade that will remain as part of the museum's permanent collection at the commencement of the exhibition. The unique Rome exhibition runs throughout summer 2015 and showcases the 30 pieces in a random, non-chronological order. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Neon Art Exhibitions:** Art exhibitions featuring neon installations are becoming increasingly popular as a way to showcase innovative artists. - **Sound Art Installations:** Collaborative sound installations are gaining traction in the art world, providing artists with new mediums to experiment with. - **Chronological Order:** Moving away from displaying art in chronological order allows for new and exciting ways to showcase an artist's work. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Art and design industries are constantly evolving to find new and innovative ways to showcase artists and their work, making art more accessible to the public. - **Museums and Galleries:** Museums and galleries are looking for ways to incorporate technology and innovative ideas into their exhibits to provide visitors with unique and engaging experiences. - **Sound Engineering:** Sound engineering has expanded beyond just music, and now offers avenues for experimentation with sound in art installations and exhibitions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Neon Illustation-Donned Buildings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crafted-world-exhibition-1.md) - [Incredibly Bold Design Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/memphis-miami.md) - [Lightning-Inspired Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bright-light-shining.md) - [Inaugural Design Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inizio.md) - [Sculptural Design Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pure-exhibition.md) - [Co-Presented Time Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rhinoceros-gallery.md) - [Ambiance-Forward Exhibitions Settings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brian-eno-and-dan-flavin.md) - [Juxtaposing Digital Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/riflessi.md) - [Digital Expo Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/after-utopia.md)
