The Strozzi Palace, formerly home to one of the wealthy Florentine families who dared to rival the Medicis, now holds a large special exhibition space which is mainly notable for being open on Mondays, when the rest of Florentine museums take a day of rest. Ok, ok, sometimes they will have a really well-done exhibition, but they tend to do modern artists in a “really, now you’re stretching it” kind of way – for example, the two whole rooms in the current Giorgio Di Chirco exhibition which are devoted to Giorgio’s deservedly less-known brother, also a tortured modernist painter. Also, if you’re going to put Balthus is the title of an exhibition, I think you should include more than three paintings by him, no?
