The Rome Metro has just two lines intersecting at Rome's Termini Station. Although limited, it’s worth using where you can as it’s by far quicker than any surface transport. Rome’s busses are very comprehensive and frequent. For further information on route planning on the Underground, fare costs and maps please see www.atac.roma.it The buses: Public buses run a very comprehensive and frequent system running from about 05:30 hrs to midnight daily. These bus services are supplemented by night services that run all night along the core routes. In general, the busses are used for very short journeys and as a feeder service to the metro and train networks and will often find you have a wide choice of routes going where you need to, especially in the town centre. The metro: the system has just two lines named A and B, the lines intersect at Rome Termini Station, the main public transport hub in Rome. The metro misses much of the city centre; however, there are stations next to the Coliseum / Roman Forum and Spanish Steps and within 5 minutes’ walk of the Vatican. Tickets / fares: All local public transport is integrated in Rome and tickets must be purchased before you board any public transport in Rome. Tickets for both the bus system and metro can be purchased from tobacconists, coffee bars, or vending machines at metro stations and major bus stops. Tickets cost € 1.00 for one Metro ride or 75 minutes on all buses or € 4.00 for a daily ticket, valid for unlimited metro, bus, and train travel within Rome.

  • Figurationen Des Porträts
    THIERRY GREUB UND MARTIN ROUSSEL (HRSG.) FIGURATIONEN DES PORTRÄTS MORPHOMATA Mit dem Fokus auf Figurationen des Porträts wird ein Spannungsfeld kulturellen Wissens eröffnet, anhand dessen sich der historische Bezugsraum von Artefakten diskutieren lässt. Porträt meint also nicht (nur) die kunsthistorische Gattung, sondern ein Wahrnehmungs­ modell, das sich zwischen einmaliger Ausprägung und der Wiedererkennbarkeit der Form entfaltet. Die Studien zielen in einem Bogen vom frühesten (Herrscher­) Porträt aus dem Alten Mesopotamien bis in die Gegen­ wartskunst hinein auf historisch variable Formen, individuelles Leben als besonders darzustellen. Neben genuin bild­ und skulpturorientierten Beiträgen von antiken Centauren­Porträts und Statuenbasen im kaiserzeitlichen Sagalassos über die ›Antike der Foto­ grafie‹ bis hin zu Schwitters’ Merzbild 9b und Twomblys Selbstbildnissen behandeln textorientierte Beiträge Fragen der Lesbarkeit von Porträts, etwa in apokryphen Paulus­Texten, an der Schnittstelle von biographischem Porträt und byzantinischer Philosophie oder anhand von Poes Oval Portrait. Ein eigener Fokus gilt den kul­ turellen Praktiken der Bedeutungsstiftung, von Stalins Herrscherbildnissen bis hin zur anthropologischen Funktion beispielsweise von Masken.
