GRAND FINALE FOR FOROF´S ARTFLIX

TIBIA IS SOLD OUT, EPISODE V BY MASMAS

It was a long night in the heart of Rome: the soundscapes created by MASMAS, suspended between an ancestral dimension and a futuristic tension, sparked reflections, emotions, and encounters, engaging the audience in a collective experience of expanded perceptions and memories retrieved from the deepest layers of consciousness. The evening reached its climax with an electrifying final DJ set featuring the members of the Roman trio themselves behind the decks.

In other words: with Episode V TIBIA, FOROF achieved an extraordinary sold-out event on June 18, 2026, remarkable in every respect—both for the exceptional number of attendees and for the intensity of the emotions shared.

The sound performance by MASMAS—intense, immersive, visionary, and profoundly engaging—marked the closing chapter of Season V INFRASUPRA by Alicja Kwade, infusing vibrant energy into the cultural entrepreneurship project conceived by Giovanna Caruso Fendi. Since 2022, FOROF has brought to life its unique spaces overlooking Trajan’s Forum through a program that intertwines contemporary art, archaeology, and multidisciplinary experimentation.

FOROF’s Artflix found its ideal season finale in Episode V TIBIA: friendship, conviviality, and a sense of community, nurtured from the very first Episode under the banner of art and culture, emerged powerfully during this final gathering. The event set in motion the remains and spirit of the Basilica Ulpia preserved in the underground level, together with the works conceived by Alicja Kwade to explore what lies behind the delicate balance between Power and Control. An original creative ecosystem, activated by the mystical and dreamlike dimension of MASMAS’ intervention.

For Giovanna Caruso Fendi, for the artists Remiddi, Alessandrini, and Pappalardo, and for all participants, the sunset over Trajan’s Forum and the tasting dinner by Rimessa Roscioli helped elevate an evening destined to remain in memory.

And for FOROF, it was the perfect farewell—for now: Season VI is already on the horizon. Stay tuned.

Special thanks to the Accademia Tedesca Roma Villa Massimo, Galleria Continua, and the Polish Institute in Rome for their invaluable support, together with the entire Rimessa Roscioli team.
