The project, in collaboration with the historic Galleria Russo, brings together four artists who explore time and memory as vital forces of creativity.

From September 11th, Hotel Eden has opened its doors to a new cultural venture, turning its elegant interiors into an exhibition space with the launch of “Echoes Through Time”.

The series begins with Milanese artist Manuel Felisi, whose works will be on display from September 11th to November 20th. Felisi is known for his poetic approach to time, layering decorative backgrounds, vintage fabrics, dripping pigments and digitally reworked photographs to create haunting, dreamlike compositions. Among the pieces on view are several from his celebrated Vertigine series, along with new works such as Lupo and Alberi.

Following Felisi, Hotel Eden will showcase the delicate constructions of Giorgio Tentolini, who works with tulle, wire mesh and paper to reflect on memory and identity. Chiara Sorgato will present paintings charged with social and anthropological meaning, offering a sharp look at contemporary life. Finally, Enrico Benetta will bring his unique fusion of art and typography, transforming the Bodoni typeface into sculptural and pictorial forms.

For Galleria Russo, one of Italy’s oldest and most respected galleries, the project is more than a simple exhibition. “It is a dialogue between past and present, art and hospitality,” said Alberto and Francesca Romana Russo, who now lead the gallery founded in 1898.

Hotel Eden, part of the Dorchester Collection, sees the initiative as a natural extension of its philosophy. “We are honored to host such an inspiring journey into contemporary art,” said general manager Mirko Cattini. “This series strengthens our bond with the artistic life of Rome while staying true to our timeless elegance.”

With “Echoes Through Time”, one of the city’s most refined hotels becomes not just a place to stay, but a stage for creativity, offering guests and visitors alike a chance to experience art in an unexpected setting at the heart of Rome.
