Pepi Marchetti, graduated “cum laude” in art history in Rome and got a masters in Visual Art Administration in New York, after working ten years at the Guggenheim of New York and Venice holding roles of ever-increasing importance next to its director, Tom Krens. In the summer of 2006, he returned to Rome as the director of the new roman home of the most important art gallery in the world, that of Larry Gagosian. An almost museum-sized space of 700 square meters on Via Francesco Crispi, which hosts “sacred exhibitions” of artists such as Cy Twombly, Jeff Koons,  Takashi Murakami and lastly Yayoi Kusama. "The uniqueness and intrigue that Rome exerts throughout the world,” says Marchetti, "are the basis for the choice of this exhibition space. And the fact that Rome has become in recent years, more open to contemporary culture, confirms the good sense of this decision".
